- Description:
- We present an analysis of late-O/early-B-powered, parsec-sized bubbles and associated star formation using Two Micron All Sky Survey, GLIMPSE, MIPSGAL, and MAGPIS surveys. Three bubbles were selected from the Churchwell et al. catalog (2007, Cat. J/ApJ/670/428). We confirm that the structure identified in Watson et al. (2008ApJ...681.1341W) holds in less energetic bubbles, i.e., a photodissociated region, identified by 8um emission due to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons surrounding hot dust, identified by 24um emission and ionized gas, and identified by 20cm continuum. We estimate the dynamical age of two bubbles by comparing bubble sizes to numerical models of Hosokawa and Inutsuka. We also identify and analyze candidate young stellar objects using spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting and identify sites of possible triggered star formation. Lastly, we identify likely ionizing sources for two sources based on SED fitting.

- IR excess in Sun-like stars observed by WISE

- Description:
- We present the results of a search for infrared-excess (IR-excess) candidates in a comprehensive (29000 stars) magnitude-limited sample of dwarf stars, spanning the spectral range F2-K0, and brighter than V=15mag. We searched the sample within the WISE all sky survey data base for objects within 1 arcsec of the coordinates provided by the SIMBAD data base, and found over 9000 sources detected in all WISE bands. The sample excludes objects that are flagged as extended sources and those images that are affected by various optical artefacts. For each detected object, we compared the observed W4/W2 (22{mu}m/4.6{mu}m) flux ratio with the expected photospheric value and identified 197 excess candidates at 3{sigma}. For the vast majority of candidates, the results of this analysis represent the first reported evidence of an IR excess. Through the comparison with a simple blackbody emission model, we derive estimates of the dust temperature, as well as of the dust fractional luminosities. For more than 80 percent of the sample, this temperature is higher than 120K, suggesting the presence of warm circumstellar dust. Complementary observations at longer wavelengths (far-IR and submillimetre) are required for better characterizing and explaining the origin of this emission.

- IR-excess sources in GLIMPSE and MSX
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/658/1264
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have identified 230 Tycho-2 Spectral Catalog stars that exhibit 8um mid-IR extraphotospheric excesses in the MSX and Spitzer GLIMPSE surveys. Of these, 183 are either OB stars earlier than B8 in which the excess plausibly arises from a thermal bremsstrahlung component or evolved stars in which the excess may be explained by an atmospheric dust component. The remaining 47 stars have spectral classifications B8 or later and appear to be main-sequence or late pre-main-sequence objects harboring circumstellar disks. Six of the 47 stars exhibit multiple signatures characteristic of pre-main-sequence circumstellar disks, including emission lines, near-IR K-band excesses, and X-ray emission. Approximately one-third of the remaining 41 sources have emission lines suggesting relative youth. We modeled the excesses in 26 stars having two or more measurements in excess of the expected photospheres as single-component blackbodies.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Using ISO-ISOPHOT, we carried out a survey of almost 150 stars to search for evidence of emission from dust orbiting young main-sequence stars, both in clusters and isolated systems. Over half of the detections are new examples of dusty stellar systems and demonstrate that such dust can be detected around numerous stars older than a few times 10^6^yr. Fluxes at 60 and either 90 or 100{mu}m or the new excess sources together with improved fluxes for a number of IRAS-identified sources are presented. Analysis of the excess luminosity relative to the stellar photosphere shows a systematic decline of this excess with stellar age consistent with a power-law index of -2.

- IR luminosities and aromatic features of 5MUSES
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/723/895
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We study a 24um selected sample of 330 galaxies observed with the infrared spectrograph for the 5mJy Unbiased Spitzer Extragalactic Survey (5MUSES). We estimate accurate total infrared luminosities by combining mid-IR spectroscopy and mid-to-far infrared photometry, and by utilizing new empirical spectral templates from Spitzer data. The infrared luminosities of this sample range mostly from 10^9^L_{sun}_ to 10^13.5^L_{sun}_, with 83% in the range 10^10^L_{sun}_<L_IR_<10^12^L_{sun}_. The redshifts range from 0.008 to 4.27, with a median of 0.144. The equivalent widths of the 6.2um aromatic feature have a bimodal distribution, probably related to selection effects. We use the 6.2um polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon equivalent width (PAH EW) to classify our objects as starburst (SB)-dominated (44%), SB-AGN composite (22%), and active galactic nucleus (AGN)-dominated (34%). The high EW objects (SB-dominated) tend to have steeper mid-IR to far-IR spectral slopes and lower LIR and redshifts.

- Description:
- We present near-IR (J and Ks) number counts and colors of galaxies detected in deep VLT-ISAAC images centered on the Chandra Deep Field (03h 32min 16s, -27{deg} 47' 25") and on the Hubble Deep Field-South. (22h 32min 55s, -60{deg} 33' 08"). The data have been obtained with the ISAAC infrared imager/spectrometer at the ESO VLT-UT1 telescope on several nights from September to December 1999 (seeing conditions around 0.7arcsec). The limiting surface brightness (1 sigma) obtained is 24.5mag/arcsec^2^ in J and 22mag/arcsec^2^ in Ks.

- Description:
- We present a thorough study of the specific star formation rates (sSFRs) for MIPS 24um selected galaxies in the Coma cluster. We build galaxy spectral energy distributions using optical (u', g', r', i', z'), near-infrared (J, H, Ks), and mid- to far-infrared (Infrared Array Camera and MIPS) photometry. New and archival spectra confirm 210 cluster members. Subsequently, the total infrared luminosity, galaxy stellar mass, and sSFR for the members are determined by measuring best-fit templates. Using an array of complementary diagnostics, we search for any contaminating active galactic nuclei, but find few. We compare obscured SFRs to unobscured rates derived from extinction-corrected H{alpha} emission line measurements. The agreement between these two values leads us to conclude that there is no evidence for an additionally obscured component. In our spectroscopic sample, complete to 80% for r'<19.5, we find that all starbursts are blue and are dwarfs, having masses <10^9^M_{sun}_. Examining the location of these starbursts within the cluster, we confirm that there is a lower fraction in the cluster core.

- Description:
- Photometric observations in the near infrared for 161 S stars, including 18 Tc-rich (intrinsic) stars, 19 Tc-deficient (extrinsic) ones and 124 candidates for Tc-deficient S stars, are presented in this paper. Based on some further investigations into the infrared properties of both Tc-rich and Tc-deficient S stars, 104 candidates are identified as very likely Tc-deficient S stars. The large number of infrared-selected Tc-deficient S stars provides a convenient way to study the physical properties and the evolutionary status of this species of S stars.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We systematically investigate the near- to far-infrared (FIR) photometric properties of a nearly complete sample of local active galactic nuclei (AGNs) detected in the Swift/Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) all-sky ultra-hard X-ray (14-195keV) survey. Out of 606 non-blazar AGNs in the Swift/BAT 70 month catalog at high galactic latitudes of |b|>10{deg}, we obtain IR photometric data of 604 objects by cross-matching the AGN positions with catalogs from the WISE, AKARI, IRAS, and Herschel infrared observatories. We find a good correlation between the ultra-hard X-ray and mid-IR luminosities over five orders of magnitude (41<logL_14-195_<46). Informed by previous measurements of the intrinsic spectral energy distribution of AGNs, we find FIR pure-AGN candidates whose FIR emission is thought to be AGN-dominated with low star-formation activity. We demonstrate that the dust covering factor decreases with the bolometric AGN luminosity, confirming the luminosity-dependent unified scheme. We also show that the completeness of the WISE color-color cut in selecting Swift/BAT AGNs increases strongly with 14-195keV luminosity.
