3D-HST Survey: grism spectra master catalog

Description:
We present reduced data and data products from the 3D-HST survey, a 248-orbit HST Treasury program. The survey obtained WFC3 G141 grism spectroscopy in four of the five CANDELS fields: AEGIS, COSMOS, GOODS-S, and UDS, along with WFC3 H_140_ imaging, parallel ACS G800L spectroscopy, and parallel I_814_ imaging. In a previous paper, we presented photometric catalogs in these four fields and in GOODS-N, the fifth CANDELS field. Here we describe and present the WFC3 G141 spectroscopic data, again augmented with data from GO-1600 in GOODS-N (PI: B. Weiner). We developed software to automatically and optimally extract interlaced two-dimensional (2D) and one-dimensional (1D) spectra for all objects in the Skelton+ (2014, J/ApJS/214/24) photometric catalogs. The 2D spectra and the multi-band photometry were fit simultaneously to determine redshifts and emission line strengths, taking the morphology of the galaxies explicitly into account. The resulting catalog has redshifts and line strengths (where available) for 22548 unique objects down to JH_IR_<=24 (79609 unique objects down to JH_IR<=26). Of these, 5459 galaxies are at z>1.5 and 9621 are at 0.7<z<1.5, where H{alpha} falls in the G141 wavelength coverage. The typical redshift error for JH_IR_<=24 galaxies is {sigma}_z_~0.003x(1+z), i.e., one native WFC3 pixel. The 3{sigma} limit for emission line fluxes of point sources is 2.1x10^-17^erg/s/cm^2^.

DIB and NaD spectra of 3 nearby stars

Description:
Diffuse interstellar absorption bands (DIBs) of largely unknown chemical origin are regularly observed primarily in distant early-type stars. More recently, detections in nearby late-type stars have also been claimed. These stars' spectra are dominated by stellar absorption lines. Specifically, strong interstellar atomic and DIB absorption has been reported in tau Boo. We test these claims by studying the strength of interstellar absorption in high-resolution TIGRE spectra of the nearby stars tau Boo, HD 33608, and alpha CrB. We focus our analysis on a strong DIB located at 5780.61{AA} and on the absorption of interstellar Na. First, we carry out a differential analysis by comparing the spectra of the highly similar F-stars, tau Boo and HD 33608, whose light, however, samples different lines of sight. To obtain absolute values for the DIB absorption, we compare the observed spectra of tau Boo, HD 33608, and alpha CrB to PHOENIX models and carry out basic spectral modeling based on Voigt line profiles.

DIB in VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey

Description:
The Tarantula Nebula (a.k.a. 30 Dor) is a spectacular star-forming region in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), seen through gas in the Galactic disc and halo. Diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) offer a unique probe of the diffuse, cool-warm gas in these regions. The aim is to use DIBs as diagnostics of the local interstellar conditions, whilst at the same time deriving properties of the yet-unknown carriers of these enigmatic spectral features. Spectra of over 800 early-type stars from the Very Large Telescope Flames Tarantula Survey (VFTS) were analysed. Maps were created, separately, for the Galactic and LMC absorption in the DIBs at 4428 and 6614{AA} and - in a smaller region near the central cluster R 136 - neutral sodium (the NaI D doublet); we also measured the DIBs at 5780 and 5797{AA}.

DIBs measurements from SDSS-III APOGEE spectra

Description:
High resolution stellar spectroscopic surveys provide massive amounts of diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) measurements. Data can be used to study the distribution of the DIB carriers and those environmental conditions that favor their formation. In parallel, recent studies have also proved that DIBs extracted from stellar spectra constitute new tools for building the 3D structure of the Galactic interstellar medium (ISM). The amount of details on the structure depends directly on the quantity of available lines of sight. Therefore there is a need to construct databases of high-quality DIB measurements as large as possible. We aim at providing the community with a catalog of high-quality measurements of the 1.5273{mu}m DIB toward a large fraction of the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) hot stars observed to correct for the telluric absorption and not used for ISM studies so far. This catalog would complement the extensive database recently extracted from the APOGEE observations and used for 3D ISM mapping. We devised a method to fit the stellar continuum of the hot calibration stars and extracted the DIB from the normalized spectrum. Severe selection criteria based on the absorption characteristics are applied to the results. In particular limiting constraints on the DIB widths and Doppler shifts are deduced from the HI 21cm measurements, following a new technique of decomposition of the emission spectra. From ~16000 available hot telluric spectra we have extracted ~6700 DIB measurements and their associated uncertainties. The statistical properties of the extracted absorptions are examined and our selection criteria are shown to provide a robust dataset. The resulting catalog contains the DIB total equivalent widths, central wavelengths and widths. We briefly illustrate its potential use for the stellar and interstellar communities.

Differences of atlases of solar spectrum

Description:
The high-fidelity solar spectral atlas prepared by Delbouille et. al (1973, Liege atlas, Atlas photometrique du spectre solaire de {lambda} 3000 a {lambda} 10000, 1973apds.book.....D) and the atlas by Neckel (1999, Hamburg atlas, 1999SoPh..184..421N) are widely recognised as the most important collection of reference spectra of the Sun at disc centre in the visible wavelength range. The two datasets serve as fundamental resources for many researchers, in particular for chemical abundance analyses. But despite their similar published specifications (spectral resolution and noise level), the shapes of the spectral lines in the two atlases differ significantly and systematically. Knowledge of any instrumental degradations is imperative to fully exploit the information content of spectroscopic data. We seek to investigate the magnitude of these differences and explain the possible sources. We provide the wavelength-dependent correction parameters that need to be taken into account when the spectra are to be compared with synthetic data, for instance.

CDS
Description:
We report the first discovery of a multi-planetary system by the HATSouth network, HATS-59b,c, a planetary system with an inner transiting hot Jupiter and an outer cold massive giant planet, which was detected via radial velocity. The inner transiting planet, HATS-59b, is on an eccentric orbit with e=0.129+/-0.049, orbiting a V=13.951+/-0.030 mag solar-like star (M_*_=1.038+/-0.039 M_{sun}_ and R_*_=1.036+/-0.067 R_{sun}_) with a period of 5.416081+/-0.000016 days. The outer companion, HATS-59c is on a circular orbit with msini=12.70+/-0.87 M_J_ and a period of 1422+/-14 days. The inner planet has a mass of 0.806+/-0.069 M_J_ and a radius of 1.126+/-0.077 R_J_, yielding a density of 0.70+/-0.16 g/cm^3^. Unlike most planetary systems that include only a single hot Jupiter, HATS-59b,c includes, in addition to the transiting hot Jupiter, a massive outer companion. The architecture of this system is valuable for understanding planet migration.

Title:
Differential V-band phot. & RVs of V506 Oph
Short Name:
J/ApJ/876/41
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We report extensive differential V-band photometry and high-resolution spectroscopic observations of the early F-type, 1.06-day detached eclipsing binary V506 Oph. The observations, along with times of minimum light from the literature, are used to derive a very precise ephemeris and the physical properties for the components, with the absolute masses and radii being determined to 0.7% or better. The masses are 1.4153+/-0.0100M_{sun}_ and 1.4023+/-0.0094M_{sun}_ for the primary and secondary, the radii are 1.725+/-0.010R_{sun}_ and 1.692+/-0.012R_{sun}_, and the effective temperatures are 6840+/-150K and 6780+/-110K, respectively. The orbit is circular and the stars are rotating synchronously. The accuracy of the radii and temperatures is supported by the resulting distance estimate of 564+/-30pc, which is in excellent agreement with the value implied by the trigonometric parallax listed in the Gaia/Data Release 2 catalog. Current stellar evolution models from the Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA) Isochrones and Stellar Tracks series for a composition of [Fe/H]=-0.04 match the properties of both stars in V506 Oph very well at an age of 1.83Gyr and indicate they are halfway through their core hydrogen-burning phase.

Title:
Diffuse interstellar bands from HD 183143
Short Name:
J/ApJ/705/32
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Echelle spectra of HD 183143 [B7Iae, E(B-V)=1.27] were obtained on three nights, at a resolving power R=38000 and with a signal-to-noise ratio ~1000 at 6400{AA} in the final, combined spectrum. A catalog is presented of 414 diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) measured between 3900 and 8100{AA} in this spectrum. The central wavelengths, the widths (FWHM), and the equivalent widths of nearly all of the bands are tabulated, along with the minimum uncertainties in the latter. Among the 414 bands, 135 (or 33%) were not reported in four previous, modern surveys of the DIBs in the spectra of various stars, including HD 183143. The principal result of this study is that the great majority of the bands in the catalog are very weak and fairly narrow. Typical equivalent widths amount to a few m{AA}, and the bandwidths (FWHM) are most often near 0.7{AA}.
