2451. Spectral survey of Case emission-line galaxies
ID:

Title:
Spectral survey of Case emission-line galaxies
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The results of the follow-up spectroscopy of 178 emission-line galaxy (ELG) candidates from the Case objective-prism survey and nine Markarian galaxies with the 6m telescope are described. Only the candidates classified in the Case survey as those with emission lines were observed with the aim to form a statistical sample of blue compact galaxies (BCGs) with strong emission lines in the zone RA: 8h-16h, and DE: =+29deg-+38deg. We present the redshifts, equivalent widths and flux ratios for the strongest lines and the spectrum type for most of the galaxies with detected emission lines. A significant fraction (about 23%) of the observed Case galaxies do not show emission lines in blue. Preliminary analysis of the data is presented and the properties of the observed ELGs are compared with those of other known samples.
2452. Spectral templates for galaxies from 0.2 to 10um

Spectral templates for galaxies from 0.2 to 10um

Description:
We built an optimal basis of low-resolution templates for galaxies over the wavelength range from 0.2 to 10um using a variant of the algorithm presented by Budavari and coworkers. We derived them using 11 bands of photometry from the NDWFS, FLAMEX, zBootes, and IRAC Shallow surveys for 16033 galaxies in the NDWFS Bootes field with spectroscopic redshifts measured by the AGN and Galaxy Evolution Survey. We also developed algorithms to accurately determine photometric redshifts, K-corrections, and bolometric luminosities using these templates. Our photometric redshifts have an accuracy of sigma_z_/(1+z)=0.04 when clipped to the best 95%. We used these templates to study the spectral type distribution in the field and to estimate luminosity functions of galaxies as a function of redshift and spectral type. In particular, we note that the 5-8um color distribution of galaxies is bimodal, much like the optical g-r colors.
2453. Spectra of Abell 2384 galaxies

Spectra of Abell 2384 galaxies
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a spectrophotometric analysis of the galaxy population in the area of the merging cluster Abell 2384 at z=0.094. We investigate the impact of the complex cluster environment on galaxy properties, such as colour, morphology, and star formation rate. We combined multi-object spectroscopy from the 2dF and EFOSC2 spectrographs with optical imaging of the inner 30x30-arcmin of A2384 taken with the ESO Wide Field Imager. We carried out a kinematical analysis using the EMMIX algorithm and biweight statistics. We address the possible presence of cluster substructures with the Dressler-Shectman test. Cluster galaxies are investigated with respect to [OII] and H{alpha} equivalent width. Galaxies covered by our optical imaging observations are additionally analysed in terms of colour, star formation rate, and morphological descriptors, such as Gini coefficient and M20 index. We study cluster galaxy properties as a function of clustercentric distance and investigate the distribution of various galaxy types in colour-magnitude and physical space.
2454. Spectra of a Holmium in the near-UV. I. Ho I.

Title:
Spectra of a Holmium in the near-UV. I. Ho I.
Short Name:
J/ApJS/228/16
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Fourier Transform spectra of a Holmium hollow cathode discharge lamp have been investigated in the UV spectral range from 25000 up to 31530cm^-1^ (317 to 400nm). Two Ho spectra have been measured with neon and argon as buffer gases. Based on the intensity ratios from these two spectra, a distinction was made between atomic and ionic lines (ionic lines are discussed in an accompanying paper). Using the known Ho I energy levels, 71 lines could be classified as transitions of atomic Ho, 34 of which have not been published previously. Another 32 lines, which could not be classified, are listed in the literature and assigned as atomic Ho. An additional 370 spectral lines have been assigned to atomic Ho based on the signal-to-noise ratio in the two spectra measured under different discharge conditions, namely with buffer gases argon and neon, respectively. These 370 lines have not been previously listed in the literature.

Title:
Spectra of a Holmium in the near-UV. II.
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Fourier Transform spectra of Holmium (Ho) in the UV spectral range from 31530 to 25000cm^-1^ (317 to 400nm) have been investigated, particularly focusing on the ionic lines. The distinction between the different degrees of ionization (I, II, and III) is based on differences in signal-to-noise ratios from two Ho spectra, which have been measured with different buffer gases, i.e., neon and argon. Based on 106 known Ho II and 126 known Ho III energy levels, 97 lines could be classified as transitions of singly ionized Ho and 9 lines could be classified as transitions of doubly ionized Ho. Of the 97 Ho II lines, 6 have not been listed in the extant literature. Another 215 lines have been assigned to Ho II, though they could not be classified on the basis of the known energy levels.
2456. Spectra of a rare low-mass Wolf-Rayet star in LMC

Spectra of a rare low-mass Wolf-Rayet star in LMC
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We report the serendipitous discovery of an object, UVQSJ060819.93-715737.4, with a spectrum dominated by extremely intense, narrow CII emission lines. The spectrum is similar to those of the very rare, late-type [WC11] low-mass Wolf-Rayet stars. Despite the recognition of these stars as a distinct class decades ago, there remains barely a handful of Galactic members, all of which are also planetary-nebula central stars. Although no obvious surrounding nebulosity is present in J0608, [OII], [NII], and [SII] emission suggest the presence of an inconspicuous, low-excitation nebula. There is low-amplitude incoherent photometric variability on timescales of days to years, as well as numerous prominent P Cygni profiles, implying mass loss. There are indications of a binary companion. The star is located on the outskirts of the LMC, and the observed radial velocity (~+250km/s) and proper motion strongly suggest membership. If indeed an LMC member, this is the first extragalactic late [WC] star, and the first with an accurately determined luminosity, as the Galactic examples are too distant for precise parallax determinations. A high-quality, broad-coverage spectrum of the prototype of the late [WC] class, CPD -56 8032, is also presented. We discuss different excitation mechanisms capable of producing the great strength of the CII emission. Numerous autoionizing levels of C II are definitely populated by processes other than dielectronic recombination. Despite the spectacular emission spectra, observational selection makes objects such as these difficult to discover. Members of the [WC11] class may in fact be considerably more common than the handful of previously known late [WC] stars.
2457. Spectra of 73 asteroids

Title:
Spectra of 73 asteroids
Short Name:
J/A+A/630/A141

Publisher:

Description:
Several primitive families in the inner region of the main asteroid belt were identified as potential sources for two near-Earth asteroids (NEAs), (101955) Bennu and (162173) Ryugu, targets of the sample-return missions OSIRIS-REx and Hayabusa2, respectively. Four of the families, located at high proper inclinations (i>10{deg}), have not yet been compositionally studied: Klio, Chaldaea, Chimaera, and Svea. We want to characterize and analyze these families within the context of our PRIMitive Asteroid Spectroscopic Survey (PRIMASS), in order to complete the puzzle of the origins of the two NEAs. We obtained visible spectra (0.5-0.9um) of a total of 73 asteroids within the Klio, Chaldaea, Chimaera, and Svea collisional families, using the instrument OSIRIS at the 10.4m Gran Telescopio Canarias. We performed a taxonomical classification of these objects, and an analysis of the possible presence of absorption bands related to aqueous alterations, comparing the results with already studied primitive families in the inner main belt. We present here reflectance spectra for 30 asteroids in the Klio family, 15 in Chaldaea, 20 in Chimaera, and 8 in Svea. We show that Klio, Chaldaea, and Chimaera members have moderately red spectral slopes, with aqueous alteration absorption bands centered around 0.7um, characteristic of the group of primitive families known as Erigone-like. In contrast, Svea shows no 0.7um features, and neutral and blue spectral slopes, and thus is a Polana-like family. While all four families might be related to (162173) Ryugu, the only family studied in this work that might be related to (101955) Bennu is Svea.

2459. Spectra of blue compact galaxies
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/A+A/396/503
Title:
Spectra of blue compact galaxies
Short Name:
J/A+A/396/503
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This is the second paper in a series studying the star formation rates, stellar components, metallicities, and star formation histories and evolution of a sample of blue compact galaxies. We analyzed spectral properties of 97 blue compact galaxies, obtained with the Beijing Astronomical Observatory (China) 2.16m telescope, with spectral range 3580{AA}-7400{AA}. We classify the spectra according to their emission lines: 13 of the total 97 BCG sample are non-emission line galaxies (non-ELGs); 10 have AGN-like emission (AGNs), and 74 of them are star-forming galaxies (SFGs). Emission line fluxes and equivalent widths, continuum fluxes, the 4000A Balmer break index and equivalent widths of absorption lines are measured from the spectra.

Title:
Spectra of blue compact galaxies
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Blue compact galaxies are compact objects that are dominated by intense star formation. Most of them have dramatically different properties compared to the Milky Way and many other nearby galaxies. Using the IRAS, HI data, and optical spectra, we wanted to measure the current star formation rates, stellar components, metallicities, and star formation histories and evolution of a large blue compact galaxy sample. We anticipate that our study will be useful as a benchmark for studies of emission line galaxies at high redshift. In the first paper of this series, we describe the selection, spectroscopic observation, data reduction and calibration, and spectrophotometric accuracy of a sample of 97 luminous blue compact galaxies. We present a spectrophotometric atlas of rest-frame spectra, as well as tables of the recession velocities and the signal-to-noise ratios. The recession velocities of these galaxies are measured with an accuracy of {delta}V<67km/s. The average signal-to-noise ratio of sample spectra is ~51. The spectral line strengths, equivalent widths and continuum fluxes are also measured for the same galaxies and will be analyzed in the next paper of this series.
