511. Catalogue of HI maps of galaxies. II.

Title:
Catalogue of HI maps of galaxies. II.
Short Name:
J/A+AS/131/77
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We use some of the maps of the catalogue presented in Paper I (Cat. <J/A+AS/131/73>) to provide some evidence for global conditions that must be fulfilled by the galaxies to have extended hydrogen. For this purpose, we tried to find possible connections between the HI gas extension and other properties of the galaxies (morphological type, surface brightness, gas density, etc.). With isophotal hydrogen diameters of a large sample, we could observe that optically smaller galaxies seem to have greater relative HI extensions. By means of the relation with the apparent HI surface density, we found an expression that should provide a rough estimate of the gas extension. With respect to the dependence on morphological type, we could not find any significant correlation either for the real HI surface density or the relative gas extension. Nevertheless, whereas for spiral and irregular galaxies the real HI surface density exhibits a broad range of values, the values are rather lower for elliptical and S0 galaxies.
512. Catalogue of ISM content of normal galaxies

Title:
Catalogue of ISM content of normal galaxies
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We have compiled a catalogue of the gas content for a sample of 1916 galaxies, considered to be a fair representation of normality. The definition of a normal galaxy adopted in this work implies that we have purposely excluded from the catalogue galaxies having distorted morphology (such as interaction bridges, tails or lopsidedness) and/or any signature of peculiar kinematics (such as polar rings, counterrotating disks or other decoupled components). In contrast, we have included systems hosting active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the catalogue. This catalogue revises previous compendia on the ISM content of galaxies published by Bregman et al. (1992ApJ...387..484B) and Casoli et al. (1998A&A...331..451C), and compiles data available in the literature from several small samples of galaxies. Masses for warm dust, atomic and molecular gas, as well as X-ray luminosities have been converted to a uniform distance scale taken from the Catalogue of Principal Galaxies (PGC). We have used two different normalization factors to explore the variation of the gas content along the Hubble sequence: the blue luminosity (LB) and the square of linear diameter (D_25_^2^). Our catalogue significantly improves the statistics of previous reference catalogues and can be used in future studies to define a template ISM content for normal galaxies along the Hubble sequence.

Title:
Catalogue of Isolated Galaxies

Description:
The catalog of isolated galaxies is defined on the basis of the Palomar Sky Survey. It contains 1051 isolated galaxies with apparent magnitudes brighter than 15.7 and north of declination -3{deg}. Compared to the original version published in 1973 (Comm. Special Astrophys. Obs. of USSR, No. 8), new data about the morphological types, the isolation class, and the radial velocities have been added. The catalog includes running numbers for the galaxies, equatorial coordinates, isolation classes, apparent magnitudes, morphological types, major axes, axial ratios, and radial velocities.

Title:
Catalogue of Markarian Galaxies
Short Name:
VII/61A
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Markarian galaxies have a moderate to strong ultraviolet continuum as detected by an objective-prism survey at Byurakan Observatory from 1965 to 1978. The survey was done with a 40-inch Schmidt telescope with a dispersion of 2500 angstroms/millimeter at H-alpha. The catalog contains no galaxies brighter than mag 13.0 or fainter than mag 17.5. The catalog fields are Markarian Identification number; S(eyfert) or Q(uasar) flag; cross identifications to other catalogs; B1950 positions; major and minor axis (arcsec); magnitude and spectral types, including a code for the strength of the UV continuum. This catalogue is superseded by the First Byurakan Survey (see the "See Also" section below) The original documentation was by Robert S. Hill and Lee E. Brotzman in the "adc.doc" file (From the CD-ROM "Selected Astronomical Catalogs" Vol. 1 (1992), directory "nonstell/galaxies/mkn")

519. Catalogue of stellar cluster properties in M83

Title:
Catalogue of stellar cluster properties in M83
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/417/L6
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We study the stellar cluster population in two adjacent fields in the nearby, face-on spiral galaxy, M83, using multi-wavelength WFC3/HST imaging. After automatic detection procedures, the clusters are selected through visual inspection to be centrally concentrated, symmetric, and resolved on the images, which allows us to differentiate between clusters and likely unbound associations. We compare our sample with previous studies and show that the differences between the catalogues are largely due to the inclusion of large numbers of diffuse associations within previous catalogues as well as the inclusion of the central starburst region, where the completeness limit is significantly worse than in the surrounding regions. We derive the size distribution of the clusters, which is well described by a log-normal distribution with a peak at ~2.5pc, and find evidence for an expansion in the half-light radius of clusters with age. The luminosity function of the clusters is well approximated by a power-law with index, -2, over most of the observed range, however a steepening is seen at M_V=-9.3 and -8.8 in the inner and outer fields, respectively. Additionally, we show that the cluster population is inconsistent with a pure power-law mass distribution, but instead exhibits a truncation at the high mass end. If described as a Schechter function, the characteristic mass is 1.6 and 0.5x10^5^M_{sun}_, for the inner and outer fields, respectively, in agreement with previous estimates of other cluster populations in spiral galaxies. Comparing the predictions of the mass independent disruption (MID) and mass dependent disruption (MDD) scenarios with the observed distributions, we find that both models can accurately fit the data. However, for the MID case, the fraction of clusters destroyed (or mass lost) per decade in age is dependent on the environment, hence, the age/mass distributions of clusters are not universal. In the MDD case, the disruption timescale scales with galactocentric distance (being longer in the outer regions of the galaxy) in agreement with analytic and numerical predictions. Finally, we discuss the implications of our results on other extragalactic surveys, focussing on the fraction of stars that form in clusters and the need (or lack thereof) for infant mortality.
520. Catastrophic cooling in superwinds. II.

Title:
Catastrophic cooling in superwinds. II.
Short Name:
J/ApJ/921/91
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Superwinds and superbubbles driven by mechanical feedback from super star clusters (SSCs) are common features in many star-forming galaxies. While the adiabatic fluid model can well describe the dynamics of superwinds, several observations of starburst galaxies revealed the presence of compact regions with suppressed superwinds and strongly radiative cooling, i.e., catastrophic cooling. In the present study, we employ the non-equilibrium atomic chemistry and cooling package MAIHEM, built on the FLASH hydrodynamics code, to generate a grid of models investigating the dependence of cooling modes on the metallicity, SSC outflow parameters, and ambient density. While gas metallicity plays a substantial role, catastrophic cooling is more sensitive to high mass-loading and reduced kinetic heating efficiency. Our hydrodynamic simulations indicate that the presence of a hot superbubble does not necessarily imply an adiabatic outflow, and vice versa. Using CLOUDY photoionization models, we predict UV and optical line emission for both adiabatic and catastrophic cooling outflows, for radiation-bounded and partially density-bounded models. Although the line ratios predicted by our radiation-bounded models agree well with observations of star-forming galaxies, they do not provide diagnostics that unambiguously distinguish the parameter space of catastrophically cooling flows. Comparison with observations suggests the possibility of minor density bounding, non-equilibrium ionization, and/or observational bias toward the central outflow regions.
