The Phoenix Deep Survey is a multiwavelength galaxy survey based on deep 1.4GHz radio imaging. The primary goal of this survey is to investigate the properties of star formation in galaxies and to trace the evolution in those properties to a redshift z=1, covering a significant fraction of the age of the universe. By compiling a sample of star-forming galaxies based on selection at radio wavelengths we eliminate possible biases due to dust obscuration, a significant issue when selecting objects at optical and ultraviolet wavelengths. In this paper, we present the catalogs and results of deep optical (UBVRI) and near-infrared (Ks) imaging of the deepest region of the existing decimetric radio imaging. The observations and data processing are summarized and the construction of the optical source catalogs described, together with the details of the identification of candidate optical counterparts to the radio catalogs. Based on our UBVRIKs imaging, photometric redshift estimates for the optical counterparts to the radio detections are explored.

Description:
Photoelectric magnitudes and colors in the Johnson-Morgan UBV system for 477 stars in 6 square degrees near Kapteyn Selected Area 141 (l=245, b=-86; 00 43 < RA < 01 11, -33.7 < Dec < -26.9, B1950.0) are given in the first data file. The estimated rms accuracies are 0.02 (V), 0.03 (B-V), 0.07 (U-B) for stars in the magnitude range 15 to 16. Table 2 of the source reference gives the mean errors for intervals of magnitude. Photographic V magnitudes and B-V colors are given for 2835 stars to magnitude 17 (in the same region as above) in the second data file. The estimated rms accuracies are 0.05 (V) and 0.08 (B-V). The mean errors of the computed right ascensions and declinations are 0.15s and 2", respectively.
All measurements in the literature on the Cape photometric system as of early 1975 have been compiled. The catalog includes measurements from 38 publications as well as 469 unpublished measurements forwarded by Dr. A. W. J. Cousins.
From December 2006 to January 2008, we performed 1699 BVIc observations for 46 low-amplitude Cepheids discovered in the course of the ASAS project using the 76-cm telescope of the South-African Astronomical Observatory (SAAO). We provide the tables of observations and V light and B-V and V-Ic color curves. These new observations, along with data from the ASAS-3 catalog, have been used to improve the elements of the light variations. Our data allow the number of known Galactic low-amplitude Cepheids to be almost doubled. This makes it possible to increase the number of distance indicators suitable for studying the structure of the inner Galactic arms by almost 15%.
Photoelectric observations of Cepheids in UBV(RI)c

Description:
This catalog gathers the observation of 894 Cepheids made between 1986 to 2004. Observations are listed in alphabetical order of the constellations. The standard deviation for every magnitude and color is 0.01mag. This version supersedes the 1997 edition (Cat. <II/217>)
The catalog is a compilation of photoelectric photometry in the Johnson UBVRI system published prior to mid-1984. The catalog contains a total of 6849 stars in the original Johnson system (Morel and Magnenat 1978), 467 stars in the system of Kunkel and Rydgren (1979), 1150 stars in the system of Moffett and Barnes III (1979), and 252 stars in the system of Neckel and Chini (1980). The catalog is in 14 files: The first 12 files list observational data, mean values, and references for each of the four standard systems. An additional two files contain the numbering scheme of Mermilliod (1978) used to identify objects, and introductory information.
This catalogue contains the results of photoelectric photometry of 4849 stars in the Vilnius seven-color photometric system UPXYZVS obtained in 1968-1988. The filters of the Vilnius system are: ------------------- Filter Lambda Width (A) (A) ------------------- U 3450 400 P 3740 260 X 4050 220 Y 4660 260 Z 5160 210 V 5440 260 S 6550 200 -------------------
We present Doppler images of the weak-lined T Tauri star V410 Tau obtained with two different Doppler-imaging codes. The images are consistent and show a cool extended spot, symmetric about the pole, at a temperature approximately 750K below the average photospheric value. Smaller cool spots are found fairly uniformly distributed at latitudes below the polar cap with temperatures about 450K below the average photospheric temperature. Resolution on the stellar surface is limited to about 7{deg} of arc, so structure within these spots is not visible. Also at lower latitudes are hotter features with temperatures up to 1000K above the photosphere. A trial Doppler image using a TiO molecular feature reproduced the cool polar cap at a temperature about 100K below the value from the atomic line images. The equatorial features, however, were not properly reproduced since Doppler imaging relies on information in the wings of lines for reconstructing equatorial features, and for V410 Tau these molecular band lines overlap. In 1993, V410 Tau had a large photometric amplitude resulting from the concentration of cool spots on the hemisphere of the star visible at phase 0{deg}, a phenomenon known as preferred longitude. In contrast, the small photometric amplitude observed currently is due to a strong symmetric polar spot and the uniform distribution in longitude of equatorial cool and warm spots. This redistribution of surface features may be the beginning of a slow "flip-flop" for V410 Tau where spot locations alternate between preferred longitudes. Flare events linked to two of the hotter spots in the Doppler image were observed.
The photoelectric total magnitudes and color indices published in the Third Reference Catalogue of Bright Galaxies (RC3, Cat. <VII/155>) are based on an analysis of ~26000 B, 25000 B-V, and 17000 U-B multiaperture measurements available up to mid 1987 from nearly 350 sources. This paper provides the full details of the analysis and estimates of internal and external errors in the parameters. The derivation of the parameters is based on techniques described by de Vaucouleurs & Corwin (1977ApJS...33..219D) whereby photoelectric multiaperture data are fitted by mean Hubble-type-dependent curves which describe the integral of the B-band flux and the typical B-V and U-B integrated color gradients. A sophisticated analysis of the residuals of these measurements from the curves was made to allow for the random and systematic errors that affect such data. The result is a homogeneous set of total magnitudes B^A^_T_, total colors (B-V)_T_ and (U-B)_T_, and effective colors (B-V)_e_ and (U-B)_e_ for more than 3000 bright galaxies in RC3.
