- Description:
- Effective temperatures and luminosities are calculated for 1,475,921 Tycho-2 and 107,145 Hipparcos stars, based on distances from Gaia Data Release 1. Parameters are derived by comparing multi-wavelength archival photometry to BT-Settl model atmospheres. The 1-sigma uncertainties for the Tycho-2 and Hipparcos stars are +/-137K and +/-125K in temperature and +/-35 per cent and +/-19 per cent in luminosity. The luminosity uncertainty is dominated by that of the Gaia parallax. Evidence for infrared excess between 4.6 and 25 microns is found for 4256 stars, of which 1883 are strong candidates. These include asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, Cepheids, Herbig Ae/Be stars, young stellar objects, and other sources. We briefly demonstrate the capabilities of this dataset by exploring local interstellar extinction, the onset of dust production in AGB stars, the age and metallicity gradients of the solar neighbourhood and structure within the Gould Belt. We close by discussing the potential impact of future Gaia data releases.

- Description:
- The characteristics of the starburst galaxies from the Pico dos Dias Survey (PDS, Coziol et al., 1998ApJS..119..239C) are compared with those of the nearby ultraviolet (UV) bright Markarian starburst galaxies, having the same limit in redshift (v_h_<7500km/s) and absolute B magnitude (M_B_<18). An important difference is found: the Markarian galaxies are generally undetected at 12 and 25um in IRAS. This is consistent with the UV excess shown by these galaxies and suggests that the youngest star-forming regions dominating these galaxies are relatively free of dust.

- Description:
- The 2MFGC catalog we have used contains 18020 galaxies selected from among the extended objects in the 2MASS infrared sky survey as having apparent ratios of the axes b/a<0.3. Most of them are spiral galaxies of later morphological types whose disks are seen almost edge-on. The individual distances to the 2724 2MFGC galaxies with known rotation velocities and radial velocities are determined using a multiparameter infrared Tully-Fisher relation. A list of the distances and peculiar velocities of these galaxies is presented. The collective motion of the 2MFGC galaxies relative to the cosmic microwave background is characterized by a velocity V=199+/-37km/s in the direction l=304+/-11, b=-8+/-8 . Our list is currently the most representative and uniform sample for analyzing non-Hubble motions of galaxies on a scale of ~100Mpc.

- PHAT X. UV-IR photometry of M31 stars
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/215/9
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have measured stellar photometry with the Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) and Advanced Camera for Surveys in near ultraviolet (F275W, F336W), optical (F475W, F814W), and near infrared (F110W, F160W) bands for 117 million resolved stars in M31. As part of the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury survey, we measured photometry with simultaneous point-spread function (PSF) fitting across all bands and at all source positions after precise astrometric image alignment (<5-10mas accuracy). In the outer disk, the photometry reaches a completeness-limited depth of F475W~28, while in the crowded, high surface brightness bulge, the photometry reaches F475W~25. We find that simultaneous photometry and optimized measurement parameters significantly increase the detection limit of the lowest-resolution filters (WFC3/IR) providing color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) that are up to 2.5mag deeper when compared with CMDs from WFC3/IR photometry alone. We present extensive analysis of the data quality including comparisons of luminosity functions and repeat measurements, and we use artificial star tests to quantify photometric completeness, uncertainties and biases. We find that the largest sources of systematic error in the photometry are due to spatial variations in the PSF models and charge transfer efficiency corrections.

- Photodissociation with mechanical heating
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/574/A127
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- CO observations in active galactic nuclei and starbursts reveal high kinetic temperatures. Those environments are thought to be very turbulent due to dynamic phenomena, such as outflows and high supernova rates. We investigate the effect of mechanical heating on atomic fine-structure and molecular lines and on their ratios. We try to use those ratios as a diagnostic to constrain the amount of mechanical heating in an object and also study its significance on estimating the H_2_ mass. Equilibrium photodissociation models (PDRs hereafter) were used to compute the thermal and chemical balance for the clouds. The equilibria were solved for numerically using the optimized version of the Leiden PDR-XDR code. Large velocity-gradient calculations were done as post-processing on the output of the PDR models using RADEX. High-J CO line ratios are very sensitive to mechanical heating ({GAMMA}mech hereafter). Emission becomes at least one order of magnitude brighter in clouds with n~10^5^cm^-3^ and a star formation rate of 1M_{sun}/yr (corresponding to {GAMMA}mech=2x10^-19^erg/cm^3^/s). The Emission of low-J CO lines is not as sensitive to {GAMMA}mech, but they do become brighter in response to {GAMMA}mech. Generally, for all of the lines we considered, {GAMMA}mech increases excitation temperatures and decreases the optical depth at the line centre. Hence line ratios are also effected, strongly in some cases. Ratios involving HCN are a good diagnostic for {GAMMA}mech , where the HCN(1-0)/CO(1-0) increases from 0.06 to 0.25, and the HCN(1-0)/HCO^+^ (1-0) increase from 0.15 to 0.5 for amounts of {GAMMA}mech that are equivalent to 5% of the surface heating rate. Both ratios increase to more than 1 for higher {GAMMA}mech , as opposed to being much less than unity in pure PDRs. The first major conclusion is that low-J to high-J intensity ratios will yield a good estimate of the mechanical heating rate (as opposed to only low-J ratios). The second one is that the mechanical heating rate should be taken into account when determining AV or, equivalently, NH, and consequently the cloud mass. Ignoring {GAMMA}mech will also lead to large errors in density and radiation field estimates.

- Description:
- We present an analysis of deep multiwavelength data for z~0.3-3 starburst galaxies selected by their 70um emission in the Extended-Chandra Deep Field-South and Extended Groth Strip. We identify active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in these infrared sources through their X-ray emission and quantify the fraction that host an AGN. Lastly, we investigate the ratio between the supermassive black hole accretion rate (inferred from the AGN X-ray luminosity) and the bulge growth rate of the host galaxy (approximated as the SFR) and find that, for sources with detected AGNs and star formation (and neglecting systems with low star formation rates to which our data are insensitive), this ratio in distant starbursts agrees well with that expected from the local scaling relation assuming the black holes and bulges grew at the same epoch. These results imply that black holes and bulges grow together during periods of vigorous star formation and AGN activity.

- Photometric redshifts in the EGOODS-North field

- Description:
- We present deep J- and H-band images in the extended Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey-North field covering an area of 0.22deg^2^. The observations were taken using WIRCam on the 3.6m Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope. Together with the reprocessed Ks-band image, the 5{sigma} limiting AB magnitudes (in 2" diameter apertures) are 24.7, 24.2, and 24.4 AB mag in the J, H, and Ks bands, respectively. We also release a multiband photometry and photometric redshift catalog containing 93598 sources. For non-X-ray sources, we obtained a photometric redshift accuracy {sigma}_NMAD_=0.036 with an outlier fraction {eta}=7.3%. For X-ray sources, which are mainly active galactic nuclei (AGNs), we cross-matched our catalog with the updated 2M-CDFN X-ray catalog from Xue+ (2016, J/ApJS/224/15) and found that 658 out of 683 X-ray sources have counterparts. GALEX UV data are included in the photometric redshift computation for the X-ray sources to give {sigma}_NMAD_=0.040 with {eta}=10.5%. Our approach yields more accurate photometric redshift estimates compared to previous works in this field. In particular, by adopting AGN-galaxy hybrid templates, our approach delivers photometric redshifts for the X-ray counterparts with fewer outliers compared to the 3D-Hubble Space Telescope catalog, which fit these sources with galaxy-only templates.

- Description:
- A spherically symmetric dust radiative transfer code is used to model the circumstellar dust shell around IRC +10 216. Compared to numerous previous models a much larger body of observational data is used as constraints; the spectral energy distribution between 0.5 and 60000{mu}m, 2-4{mu}m and 8-23{mu}m spectra, optical, far-infrared and centimeter sizes and interferometric visibility curves between 1.6 and 11.2{mu}m are used to constrain the model. The most important result is that in order to fit the visibility curve at 2.2{mu}m and the size of the shell in the optical, scattering has to be invoked.

- Photometry and motions in Arches and Quintuplet
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/578/A4
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We investigate the circumstellar disc fraction as determined from L-band excess observations of the young, massive Arches and Quintuplet clusters residing in the central molecular zone of the Milky Way. The Quintuplet cluster was searched for L-band excess sources for the first time. We find a total of 26 excess sources in the Quintuplet cluster, and 21 sources with L-band excesses in the Arches cluster, of which 13 are new detections. With the aid of proper motion membership samples, the disc fraction of the Quintuplet cluster could be derived for the first time to be 4.0+/-0.7. There is no evidence for a radially varying disc fraction in this cluster. In the case of the Arches cluster, a disc fraction of 9.2+/-1.2 approximately out to the cluster's predicted tidal radius, r<1.5pc (Habibi et al., 2013A&A...556A..26H, Cat. J/A+A/556/A26), is found. This excess fraction is consistent with our previously found disc fraction in the cluster in the radial range 0.3<r<0.8pc. In both clusters, the host star mass range covers late A to early B-type stars, 2<M<15M_{sun}, as derived from J-band photospheric magnitudes. We discuss the unexpected finding of dusty circumstellar discs in these UV intense environments in the context of primordial disc survival and formation scenarios of secondary discs. We consider the possibility that the L-band excess sources in the Arches and Quintuplet clusters could be the high-mass counterparts to T Tauri pre-transitional discs. As such a scenario requires a long pre-transitional disc lifetime in a UV intense environment, we suggest that mass transfer discs in binary systems are a likely formation mechanism for the B-star discs observed in these starburst clusters.

- Photometry and spectroscopy of Markarian 266

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Results of observations with the Spitzer, Hubble, GALEX, Chandra, and XMM-Newton space telescopes are presented for the luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG) merger Markarian 266. The SW (Seyfert 2) and NE (LINER) nuclei reside in galaxies with Hubble types SBb (pec) and S0/a (pec), respectively. Both companions are more luminous than L* galaxies and they are inferred to each contain a {approx}2.5x10^8^M_{sun}_ black hole. Although the nuclei have an observed hard X-ray flux ratio of f_X_(NE)/f_X_(SW)=6.4, Mrk 266 SW is likely the primary source of a bright Fe K{alpha} line detected from the system, consistent with the reflection-dominated X-ray spectrum of a heavily obscured active galactic nucleus (AGN). Optical knots embedded in an arc with aligned radio continuum radiation, combined with luminous H_2_line emission, provide evidence for a radiative bow shock in an AGN-driven outflow surrounding the NE nucleus. A soft X-ray emission feature modeled as shock-heated plasma with T~10^7^K is cospatial with radio continuum emission between the galaxies. Mid-infrared diagnostics provide mixed results, but overall suggest a composite system with roughly equal contributions of AGN and starburst radiation powering the bolometric luminosity. Approximately 120 star clusters have been detected, with most having estimated ages less than 50Myr. Detection of 24{mu}m emission aligned with soft X-rays, radio continuum, and ionized gas emission extending ~34" (20kpc) north of the galaxies is interpreted as ~2x10^7^M_{sun}_ of dust entrained in an outflowing superwind. At optical wavelengths this Northern Loop region is resolved into a fragmented morphology indicative of Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities in an expanding shell of ionized gas. Mrk 266 demonstrates that the dust "blow-out" phase can begin in a LIRG well before the galaxies fully coalesce during a subsequent ultraluminous infrared galaxy (ULIRG) phase, and rapid gas consumption in luminous dual AGNs with kiloparsec-scale separations early in the merger process may explain the paucity of detected binary QSOs (with parsec-scale orbital separations) in spectroscopic surveys. An evolutionary sequence is proposed representing a progression from dual to binary AGNs, accompanied by an increase in observed L_x_/L_ir_ ratios by over two orders of magnitude.
