- Description:
- In this paper, we present a spectral atlas covering the wavelength interval 930-1188{AA} for O2-O9.5 stars using Far-Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer archival data. The stars selected for the atlas were drawn from three populations: Galactic main-sequence (classes III-V) stars, supergiants, and main-sequence stars in the Magellanic Clouds, which have low metallicities. For several of these stars, we have prepared FITS files comprised of pairs of merged spectra for user access via the Multimission Archive at Space Telescope (MAST). We chose spectra from the first population with spectral types O4, O5, O6, O7, O8, and O9.5 and used them to compile tables and figures with identifications of all possible atmospheric and interstellar medium lines in the region 949-1188{AA}. Our identified line totals for these six representative spectra are 821 (500), 992 (663), 1077 (749), 1178 (847), 1359 (1001), and 1798 (1392) lines, respectively, where the numbers in parentheses are the totals of lines formed in the atmospheres, according to spectral synthesis models. The total number of unique atmospheric identifications for the six main-sequence O-star template spectra is 1792, whereas the number of atmospheric lines in common to these spectra is 300. The number of identified lines decreases toward earlier types (increasing effective temperature), while the percentages of "missed" features (unknown lines not predicted from our spectral syntheses) drop from a high of 8% at type B0.2, from our recently published B-star far-UV atlas (Cat. J/ApJS/186/175), to 1%-3% for type O spectra. The percentages of overpredicted lines are similar, despite their being much higher for B-star spectra.

- Description:
- We have constructed a detailed spectral atlas covering the wavelength region 930-1225{AA} for 10 sharp-lined B0-B9 stars near the main sequence. Most of the spectra we assembled are from the archives of the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer satellite, but for nine stars, wavelength coverage above 1188{AA} was taken from high-resolution International Ultraviolet Explorer or echelle Hubble Space Telescope/Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph spectra. To represent the tenth star at type B0.2V, we used the Copernicus atlas of tau Sco. We made extensive line identifications in the region 949-1225{AA} of all atomic features having published oscillator strengths at types B0, B2, and B8. These are provided as a supplementary data product-hence the term detailed atlas. Our list of found features totals 2288, 1612, and 2469 lines, respectively. We were able to identify 92%, 98%, and 98% of these features with known atomic transitions with varying degrees of certainty in these spectra. The remaining lines do not have published oscillator strengths. Photospheric lines account for 94%, 87%, and 91%, respectively, of all our identifications, with the remainder being due to interstellar (usually molecular H2) lines. We also discuss the numbers of lines with respect to the distributions of various ions for these three most studied spectral subtypes. A table is also given of 162 least blended lines that can be used as possible diagnostics of physical conditions in B star atmospheres.

- Far-UV spectroscopy of T Tau stars
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/744/121
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectral atlas consisting of spectra of 91 pre-main-sequence stars. Most stars in this sample were observed with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph and Advanced Camera for Surveys on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). A few archival spectra from the International Ultraviolet Explorer and the Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph on HST are included for completeness. We find strong correlations among the OI{lambda}1304 triplet, the SiIV {lambda}{lambda}1394/1403 doublet, the CIV{lambda}1549 doublet, and the HeII {lambda}1640 line luminosities. For classical T Tauri stars (CTTSs), we also find strong correlations between these lines and the accretion luminosity, suggesting that these lines form in processes related to accretion. These FUV line fluxes and X-ray luminosity correlate loosely with large scatters. The FUV emission also correlates well with H{alpha}, H{beta}, and CaII K line luminosities. These correlations between FUV and optical diagnostics can be used to obtain rough estimates of FUV line fluxes from optical observations. Molecular hydrogen (H_2_) emission is generally present in the spectra of actively accreting CTTSs but not the weak-lined T Tauri stars that are not accreting. The presence of H_2_ emission in the spectrum of HD 98800N suggests that the disk should be classified as actively accreting rather than a debris disk.

- GRANAT/WATCH catalogue of gamma-ray bursts
- Short Name:
- J/A+AS/129/1
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the catalogue of gamma-ray bursts (GRB) observed with the WATCH all-sky monitor on board the GRANAT satellite during the period December 1989 to September 1994. The cosmic origin of 95 bursts comprising the catalogue is confirmed either by their localisation with WATCH or by their detection with other GRB experiments. For each burst its time history and information on its intensity in the two energy ranges 8-20keV and 20-60keV are presented. Most events show hardening of the energy spectrum near the burst peak. In part of the bursts an X-ray precursor or a tail is seen at 8-20keV. We have determined the celestial positions of the sources of 47 bursts. Their localisation regions (at 3-sigma confidence level) are equivalent in area to circles with radii ranging from 0.2 to 1.6deg. The burst sources appear isotropically distributed on the sky on large angular scales.

- GTC spectra of z~2.3 quasars

- Description:
- The advent of 8-10m class telescopes for the first time makes it possible to compare in detail quasars with similar luminosity and very different redshifts. We conducted a search for z-dependent gradients in line-emission diagnostics and derived physical properties by comparing, in a narrow bolometric luminosity range (logL~46.1+/-0.4erg/s), some of the most luminous local z<0.6 quasars with some of the lowest luminosity sources yet found at redshift z=2.1-2.5. Moderate signal-to-noise ratio spectra for 22 high-redshift sources were obtained with the 10.4m Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC), for which the HST (largely the Faint Object Spectrograph) archive provides a low-redshift control sample. We compared the spectra in the context of the 4D Eigenvector 1 formalism, meaning that we divided both source samples into highly accreting population A and population B sources accreting at a lower rate. CIV {lambda}1549, the strongest and most reliable diagnostic line, shows very similar properties at both redshifts, which confirms the CIV {lambda}1549 profile differences at high redshift between populations A and B, which are well established in local quasars. The CIV {lambda}1549 blueshift that appears quasi-ubiquitous in higher L sources is found in only half (population A) of the quasars observed in the two samples. A CIV {lambda}1549 evolutionary Baldwin effect is certainly disfavored. We find evidence for lower metallicity in the GTC sample that may point toward a gradient with z. No evidence for a gradient in black hole mass or Eddington ratio is found. Spectroscopic differences established at low z are also present in much higher redshift quasars. Our results on the CIV {lambda}1549 blueshift suggest that it depends both on source luminosity and Eddington ratio. Given that our samples involve sources with very similar luminosity, the evidence for a systematic metallicity decrease, if real, points toward an evolutionary effect. Our samples are not large enough to effectively constrain possible changes of black hole mass or Eddington ratio with redshift. The two samples appear representative of a slowly evolving quasar population that is most likely present at all redshifts.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- This catalog contains a high resolution atlas of both northern and southern sky symbiotic stars. It represents an all-sky optical survey of symbiotic stars using Echelle spectrometers. A summary of the stars with positions and a summary of spectra available are included. The wavelength resolution is better than 0.01 nm. The emission lines in this catalog were chosen to allow the determination of global values for the density and temperature of the nebula, as well as the temperature of the ionizing source. Note that some of the spectra with date marked by "++++" in the "ObsDate" column of the "spectra.dat" file are not in the original publications (mostly "low resolution" spectra)

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present high-resolution 12, 25, 60, and 100{mu}m images of 106 interacting galaxy systems contained in the IRAS Revised Bright Galaxy Sample (RBGS, Sanders et al., Cat. <J/AJ/126/1607>), a complete sample of all galaxies having a 60{mu}m flux density greater than 5.24Jy. These systems were selected to have at least two distinguishable galaxies separated by less than three average galactic diameters, and thus we have excluded very widely separated systems and very advanced mergers. Additionally, some systems have been included that are more than three galactic diameters apart, yet have separations less than 4 and are thus likely to suffer from confusion in the RBGS. The new complete survey has the same properties as the prototype survey of Surace et al., 1993AJ....105..864S.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the atlas of protoplanetary disks in the Orion Nebula based on the Wide Field Channel of the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS/WFC) images obtained for the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Treasury Program on the Orion Nebula Cluster. The observations have been carried out in five photometric filters nearly equivalent to the standard B, V, H{alpha}, I, and z passbands. Our master catalog lists 178 externally ionized protoplanetary disks (proplyds), 28 disks seen only in absorption against the bright nebular background (silhouette disks), eight disks seen only as dark lanes at the midplane of extended polar emission (bipolar nebulae or reflection nebulae), and five sources showing jet emission with no evidence of either external ionized gas emission or dark silhouette disks.
