Description:
The presence of HI gas in galaxies is inextricably linked to their morphology and evolution. This paper aims to understand the HI content of the already identified 2210 dwarfs located in the low-to-moderate density environments of the MATLAS deep imaging survey. We combine the HI observations from the ATLAS3D survey, with the extragalactic HI sources from the ALFALFA survey, to extract the HI line width, velocity and mass of the MATLAS dwarfs. From the 1773 dwarfs in our sample with available HI observations, 8% (145) have an HI line detection. The majority of the dwarfs show irregular morphology, while 29% (42) are ellipticals, the largest sample of HI-bearing dwarf ellipticals (dEs) to date. Of the HI dwarf sample, 2% (3) are ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs), 12% have a transition-type morphology, 5% are tidal dwarf candidates, and 10% appear to be disrupted objects. In our optically selected sample, 9.5% of the dEs, 7% of the UDGs and 10% of the classical dwarfs are HI-bearing. The HI-bearing dwarfs have on average bluer colors than the dwarfs without detected HI. We find relations between the stellar and HI masses, gas fraction, color and absolute magnitude consistent with previous studies of dwarfs probing similar masses and environments. For 79% of the dwarfs identified as satellites of massive early-type galaxies, we find that the HI mass increases with the projected distance to the host. Using the HI line width, we estimate dynamical masses and find that 5% (7) of the dwarfs are dark matter deficient.
2612. HI observations of WHISP disk galaxies
ID:

Title:
HI observations of WHISP disk galaxies
Short Name:
J/A+A/442/137
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present HI observations of 68 early-type disk galaxies from the WHISP survey. They have morphological types between S0 and Sab and absolute B-band magnitudes between -14 and -22. These galaxies form the massive, high surface-brightness extreme of the disk galaxy population, few of which have been imaged in HI before. The HI properties of the galaxies in our sample span a large range; the average values of MHI/LB and DHI/D25 are comparable to the ones found in later-type spirals, but the dispersions around the mean are larger. No significant differences are found between the S0/S0a and the Sa/Sab galaxies.
2613. HIPASS catalogue. III.
ID:

Title:
HIPASS catalogue. III.
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/361/34
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the largest catalogue to date of optical counterparts for H i radio-selected galaxies, HOPCAT. Of the 4315 H i radio-detected sources from the HI Parkes All Sky Survey (HIPASS) catalogue, we find optical counterparts for 3618 (84 per cent) galaxies. Of these, 1798 (42 per cent) have confirmed optical velocities and 848 (20 per cent) are single matches without confirmed velocities. Some galaxy matches are members of galaxy groups. From these multiple galaxy matches, 714 (16 per cent) have confirmed optical velocities and a further 258 (6 per cent) galaxies are without confirmed velocities. For 481 (11 per cent), multiple galaxies are present but no single optical counterpart can be chosen and 216 (5 per cent) have no obvious optical galaxy present. Most of these "blank fields" are in crowded fields along the Galactic plane or have high extinctions. Isolated "dark galaxy" candidates are investigated using an extinction cut of A_Bj_<1mag and the blank-fields category. Of the 3692 galaxies with an A+Bj_ extinction <1mag, only 13 are also blank fields. Of these, 12 are eliminated either with follow-up Parkes observations or are in crowded fields. The remaining one has a low surface brightness optical counterpart. Hence, no isolated optically dark galaxies have been found within the limits of the HIPASS survey.
2614. Hipparcos calibration of the TRGB
ID:

Title:
Hipparcos calibration of the TRGB
Short Name:
J/ApJ/703/L72
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We have detected the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) in the solar neighborhood using near-infrared photometry from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (II/246) and DIRBE (J/ApJS/154/673) catalogs, and revised Hipparcos parallaxes. We confirm that the revised Hipparcos parallaxes are superior to the original ones, and that this improvement is necessary to detect the TRGB. We find a tip absolute magnitude of M_K_=-6.85+/-0.03, in agreement with that expected from previous tip measurements of the Large Magellanic Cloud, Small Magellanic Cloud, and Bulge. This represents the first geometric calibration of the TRGB and extends previous calibrations, based on metal-poor globular clusters, to solar metallicities. We attempted to use the TRGB to confirm the presence of the Lutz-Kelker bias, with inconclusive results. Attempts to detect the tip in the I band also produced inconsistent results, due to a lack of precise, homogeneous photometry for these bright stars.
2615. Hipparcos Input Catalogue, Version 2
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/I/196
Title:
Hipparcos Input Catalogue, Version 2
Short Name:
I/196
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Hipparcos Input Catalogue was constructed as the observing program for ESA's Hipparcos astrometry mission. This has resulted in a catalogue of stellar data including up-to-date information on positions, proper motions, magnitudes, colors, and when available, spectral types, radial velocities, multiplicity and variability information. The catalogue is complete to well-defined magnitude limits, and includes a substantial sampling of the most important stellar categories present in the solar neighbourhood beyond these limits. The magnitude limits vary from 7.3 to 9 magnitudes as a function of galactic latitude and spectral type, and there are no stars fainter than about V = 13 mag. 118000 stars are included in the Hipparcos Input Catalogue, about half of them have been selected within well-defined limits in V magnitude, spectral type and galactic latitude (the "survey"), half of them within proposed observing programs. The mean accuracies achieved, as demonstrated by comparison with the Hipparcos results (Turon et al. 1995A&A...304...82T) are 0.3 arcsec for the positions and 0.25 mag for the Hp magnitude, with accuracies of 0.02 mag or better for more than a third of the catalogue. The data set consists of the main catalogue, and the first supplement which contains more detailed information for multiple system components. Other supplements with identification charts can be found in the published version. A complete description is provided, either as a LaTeX file (intro.tex), or as a plain ascii file (intro.cat).
2616. Hipparcos photometry of CP stars
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/A+AS/132/93
Title:
Hipparcos photometry of CP stars
Short Name:
J/A+AS/132/93
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Hipparcos photometry of the chemically peculiar main-sequence B, A and F stars are examined for variability. Some non-magnetic CP stars, Mercury-Manganese and metallic-line stars, which according to canonical wisdom should not be variable, may be variable and are identified for further study. Some potentially important magnetic CP stars are noted.
2617. Hipparcos red stars
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/A+A/397/997
Title:
Hipparcos red stars
Short Name:
J/A+A/397/997
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
For Hipparcos M, S, and C spectral type stars, we provide calibrated instantaneous (epoch) Cousins V-I color indices using newly derived HpV_T2_ photometry. Three new sets of ground-based Cousins VI data have been obtained for more than 170 carbon and red M giants, observed at SAAO in 1984 and 1987 (table1), at Siding Spring Observatory in 2002 (table2), and with the Automatic Photoelectric Telescopes located at Fairborn Observatory from 1996 (table3). These datasets in combination with the published sources of VI photometry served to obtain the calibration curves linking Hipparcos/Tycho Hp-V_T2_ with the Cousins V-I index. In total, 321 carbon stars and 4464 M- and S-type stars have new V-I indices. The standard error of the mean V-I is about 0.1mag or better down to Hp~9 although it deteriorates rapidly at fainter magnitudes. These V-I indices can be used to verify the published Hipparcos V-I color indices. Thus, we have identified a handful of new cases where, instead of the real target, a random field star has been observed. A considerable fraction of the DMSA/C and DMSA/V solutions for red stars appear not to be warranted. Most likely such spurious solutions may originate from usage of a heavily biased color in the astrometric processing.
2618. Hipparcos, the New Reduction
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/I/311
Title:
Hipparcos, the New Reduction
Short Name:
I/311
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
A new reduction of the astrometric data as produced by the Hipparcos mission has been published, claiming accuracies for nearly all stars brighter than magnitude Hp=8 to be better, by up to a factor 4, than in the original catalogue. The new Hipparcos astrometric catalogue is checked for the quality of the data and the consistency of the formal errors as well as the possible presence of error correlations. The differences with the earlier publication are explained. Methods. The internal errors are followed through the reduction process, and the external errors are investigated on the basis of a comparison with radio observations of a small selection of stars, and the distribution of negative parallaxes. Error correlation levels are investigated and the reduction by more than a factor 10 as obtained in the new catalogue is explained. Results. The formal errors on the parallaxes for the new catalogue are confirmed. The presence of a small amount of additional noise, though unlikely, cannot be ruled out. Conclusions. The new reduction of the Hipparcos astrometric data provides an improvement by a factor 2.2 in the total weight compared to the catalogue published in 1997, and provides much improved data for a wide range of studies on stellar luminosities and local galactic kinematics.
2619. HIP stars with 22{mu}m excess
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJS/208/29
Title:
HIP stars with 22{mu}m excess
Short Name:
J/ApJS/208/29
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
In this paper, we present a catalog that includes 141 bright candidates (<=10.27mag, V band) showing an excess of infrared (IR) at 22{mu}m. Of these 141 candidates, 38 stars are known IR-excess stars or disks, 23 stars are double or multiple stars, and 4 are Be stars while the remaining more than 70 stars are identified as 22 {mu}m excess candidates in our work. The criterion for selecting candidates is K_s_-[22]_{mu}m_. All these candidates are selected from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer all-sky data cross-correlated with the Hipparcos main catalog and the likelihood-ratio technique is employed. Considering the effect of background, we introduce the IRAS 100{mu}m level to exclude the high background. We also estimate the coincidence probability of these sources. In addition, we present the optical to mid-IR spectral energy distributions and optical images for all the candidates, and give the observed optical spectra of six stars with the National Astronomical Observatories, Chinese Academy of Sciences' 2.16m telescope. To measure for the amount of dust around each star, the fractional luminosity is also provided. We also test whether our method of selecting IR-excess stars can be used to search for extra-solar planets; we cross-match our catalog with known IR-excess stars with planets but found no matches. Finally, we give the fraction of stars showing excess IR for different spectral types of main-sequence stars.
2620. HIP visual binaries kinematics. I.

Title:
HIP visual binaries kinematics. I.
Short Name:

Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
A sample consisting of 570 binary systems is compiled from several sources of visual binary stars with well-known orbital elements. High-precision trigonometric parallaxes (mean relative error about 5%) and proper motions (mean relative error about 3%) are extracted from the Hipparcos Catalogue or from the reprocessed Hipparcos data. However, 13% of the sample stars lack radial velocity measurements. Computed galactic velocity components and other kinematic parameters are used to divide the sample stars into kinematic age groups. The majority (89%) of the sample stars, with known radial velocities, are the thin disk stars, 9.5% binaries have thick disk kinematics and only 1.4% are halo stars. 85% of thin disk binaries are young or medium age stars and almost 15% are old thin disk stars. There is an urgent need to increase the number of the identified halo binary stars with known orbits and substantially improve the situation with their radial velocity data. Based on the data from the Hipparcos astrometry satellite (ESA)
