- Description:
- We present the SWIRE Photometric Redshift Catalogue 1025119 redshifts of unprecedented reliability and of accuracy comparable with or better than previous work. Our methodology is based on fixed galaxy and quasi-stellar object templates applied to data at 0.36-4.5um, and on a set of four infrared emission templates fitted to infrared excess data at 3.6-170um. The galaxy templates are initially empirical, but are given greater physical validity by fitting star formation histories to them, which also allows us to estimate stellar masses.

- Description:
- We apply the supernova (SN) extinction curves to reproduce the observed properties of SST J1604+4304 which is a young infrared (IR) galaxy at z~1. The SN extinction curves used in this work were obtained from models of unmixed ejecta of Type II supernovae for the Salpeter initial mass function with a mass range from 8 to 30M_{sun}_ or 8 to 40M_{sun}_. The effect of dust distributions on the attenuation of starlight is investigated by performing the {chi}^2^ fitting method against various dust distributions. These are the commonly used uniform dust screen, the clumpy dust screen and the internal dust geometry. We add to these geometries three scattering properties, namely, no scattering, isotropic scattering and forward-only scattering. Judging from the {chi}^2^ values, we find that the uniform screen models with any scattering property provide good approximations to the real dust geometry.

- TCS-CAIN: NIR Survey of the Galactic plane
- Short Name:
- II/270
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We describe a deep multi-colour NIR survey (TCS-CAIN) that has been recently completed at the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias (Spain). The survey is of selected areas distributed along the Galactic plane and it goes deeper than 2MASS or DENIS. Its aim was to explore the large-scale structure of the Milky Way and the Galactic components, in particular the Galactic bar. This survey has about 10 million point-source detections in J, H, and Ks filters with a photometric accuracy of about 0.1mag in the three bands and a positional accuracy of about 0.2" (based on the 2MASS catalogue as the astrometric reference).

- T dwarf companions around M, L, T dwarfs in IR
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/743/141
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report observational techniques, results, and Monte Carlo population analyses from a Spitzer Infrared Array Camera imaging survey for substellar companions to 117 nearby M, L, and T dwarf systems (median distance of 10pc, mass range of 0.6 to ~0.05M_{sun}_). The two-epoch survey achieves typical detection sensitivities to substellar companions of [4.5um]<=17.2mag for angular separations between about 7" and 165". Based on common proper motion analysis, we find no evidence for new substellar companions. Using Monte Carlo orbital simulations (assuming random inclination, random eccentricity, and random longitude of pericenter), we conclude that the observational sensitivities translate to an ability to detect 600-1100K brown dwarf companions at semimajor axes >~35AU and to detect 500-600 K companions at semimajor axes >~60AU. The simulations also estimate a 600-1100K T dwarf companion fraction of <3.4% for 35-1200AU separations and <12.4% for the 500-600K companions for 60-1000AU separations.

- Title:
- T dwarfs in the southern hemisphere
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/126/2487
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the discovery of three new southern hemisphere T dwarfs identified in the Two Micron All Sky Survey (Cat. <II/246>). These objects, 2MASS 0348-6022, 2MASS 0516-0445, and 2MASS 2228-4310, have classifications T7, T5.5, and T6.5, respectively. Using linear absolute magnitude/spectral type relations derived from T dwarfs with measured parallaxes, we estimate spectrophotometric distances for these discoveries; the closest, 2MASS 0348-6022, is likely within 10pc of the Sun. Proper motions and estimated tangential velocities are consistent with membership in the Galactic disk population. We also list southern hemisphere T dwarf candidates that were either not found in subsequent near-infrared imaging observations and are most likely uncataloged minor planets, or have near-infrared spectra consistent with background stars.

- Templates for photometric redshifts of submm sources
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/626/L15
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- There is growing evidence that some star-forming galaxies at z>1 are characterized by high efficiencies and specific star formation rates. In the local universe, these traits are shared by "active" blue compact dwarf galaxies (BCDs) with compact and dense star-forming regions. The spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of these BCDs are dominated by young massive star clusters, embedded in a cocoon of dust. In this Letter, we incorporate these BCD SEDs as templates for two samples of high-redshift galaxy populations selected at submillimeter wavelengths.

- The Araucaria Project: deep NIR phot. I.
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/253/42
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Deep near-infrared (NIR) J- and K-band photometry of three Local Group dwarf spheroidal galaxies-Fornax, Carina, and Sculptor-is made available for the community. Until now, these data have only been used by the Araucaria Project to determine distances using the tip of the red giant branch and RR Lyrae stars. Now, we present the entire data collection in the form of a database, consisting of accurate J- and K-band magnitudes, sky coordinates, ellipticity measurements, and timestamps of observations, complemented by stars' loci in their reference images. The depth of our photometry reaches about 22 mag at the 5{sigma} level, and is comparable to NIR surveys, such as the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) or the VISTA Hemisphere Survey (VHS). Small overlap with VHS and no overlap with UKIDSS makes our database a unique source of quality photometry.

- The BAaDE SiO maser survey at 86GHz with ALMA
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/244/25
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report on the first 1432 sources observed using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, from the Bulge Asymmetries and Dynamical Evolution survey, which aims to obtain tens of thousands of line-of-sight velocities from SiO masers in Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars in the Milky Way. A 71% detection rate of 86GHz SiO masers is obtained from the infrared color-selected sample and increases to 80% when considering the likely oxygen-rich stars using Midcourse Space Experiment colors isolated in a region where [D]-[E]<=1.38. Based on Galactic distributions, the presence of extended CS emission, and likely kinematic associations, the population of sources with [D]-[E]>1.38 probably consists of young stellar objects, or alternatively, of planetary nebulae. For the SiO detections, we examined whether individual SiO transitions provide comparable stellar line-of-sight velocities and found that any SiO transition is suitable for determining a stellar AGB line-of-sight velocity. Finally, we discuss the relative SiO detection rates and line strengths in the context of current pumping models.

- The band-merged unWISE Catalog
- Short Name:
- II/363
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the unWISE Catalog, containing the positions and fluxes of roughly 2 billion objects observed by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) over the full sky. The unWISE Catalog has two advantages over the existing WISE catalog (AllWISE): first, it is based on significantly deeper imaging, and second, it features improved modeling of crowded regions. The deeper imaging used in the unWISE Catalog comes from the coaddition of all publicly available 3-5um WISE imaging, including that from the ongoing NEOWISE-reactivation mission, thereby increasing the total exposure time by a factor of 5 relative to AllWISE. At these depths, even at high Galactic latitudes, many sources are blended with their neighbors; accordingly, the unWISE analysis simultaneously fits thousands of sources to obtain accurate photometry. Our new catalog detects sources roughly 0.7mag fainter than the AllWISE catalog at 5{sigma}, and more accurately models millions of faint sources in the Galactic plane, enabling a wealth of Galactic and extragalactic science. In particular, relative to AllWISE, unWISE doubles the number of galaxies detected between redshifts 0 and 1 and triples the number between redshifts 1 and 2, cataloging more than half a billion galaxies over the whole sky.

- Title:
- The CatWISE2020 catalog (updated version 28-Jan-2021)
- Short Name:
- II/365
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The CatWISE2020 Catalog consists of 1,890,715,640 sources over the entire sky selected from WISE and NEOWISE survey data at 3.4 and 4.6um (W1 and W2) collected from 2010 Jan 7 to 2018 Dec 13. This dataset adds two years to that used for the CatWISE Preliminary Catalog (Eisenhardt+ 2020ApJS..247...69E), bringing the total to six times as many exposures spanning over sixteen times as large a time baseline as the AllWISE catalog. The other major change from the CatWISE Preliminary Catalog is that the detection list for CatWISE2020 was generated using "crowdsource" software (Schlafly+ 2019ApJS..240...30S), while the Preliminary Catalog used the detection software used for AllWISE (II/328). These two factors result in roughly twice as many sources in CatWISE2020. The scatter with respect to Spitzer photometry at faint magnitudes in the COSMOS field, which is out of the Galactic plane and at low ecliptic latitude (corresponding to lower WISE coverage depth) is similar to that for the CatWISE Preliminary Catalog. The 90% completeness depth for CatWISE2020 is at roughly W1=17.7 and W2=17.5, about 1.7 mag deeper than in the Preliminary Catalog. From comparison to Gaia, CatWISE2020 motions are over a dozen times more accurate than those from AllWISE.
