1971. The extended Gaia-PS1-SDSS (GPS1+) proper motion catalog
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/I/351
Title:
The extended Gaia-PS1-SDSS (GPS1+) proper motion catalog
Short Name:
I/351
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Gaia + PanSTARRS1 (PS1) + Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) + Two Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) (GPS1) catalog was released in 2017. It delivered precise proper motions for around 350 million sources down to a magnitude of r~20mag. In this study, we present GPS1+, the extension GPS1 catalog down to r~22.5mag, based on Gaia data release 2 (DR2), PS1, SDSS, and 2MASS astrometry. GPS1+ totally provides proper motions for ~400 million sources with a characteristic systematic error of less than 0.1mas/yr. This catalog is divided into two subsamples, i.e., the primary and secondary parts. The primary ~264 million sources have either or both Gaia and SDSS astrometry, with a typical precision of 2.0-5.0mas/yr. In this part, ~160 million sources have Gaia proper motions, and we provide another new proper motion for each of them by building a Bayesian model. Relative to Gaia's values, the precision is improved by ~0.1dex on average; ~50 million sources are the objects whose proper motions are missing in Gaia DR2, and we provide their proper motions with a precision of ~4.5mas/yr. The remaining ~54 million faint sources are beyond Gaia detecting capability, and we provide their proper motions for the first time with a precision of 7.0mas/yr. However, the secondary ~136 million sources only have PS1 astrometry, where the average precision is worse than 15.0mas/yr. The large uncertainty probably limits it to qualitative applications. All the proper motions have been validated using QSOs and the existing Gaia proper motions. The catalog will be available via the TAP Service in the German Astrophysical Virtual Observatory.

1973. The EZOA survey
ID:

Title:
The EZOA survey
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a catalogue of galaxies in the northern Zone of Avoidance (ZoA), extracted from the shallow version of the blind HI survey with the Effelsberg 100m radio telescope, EBHIS, that has a sensitivity of 23mJy/beam at 10.24km/s velocity resolution. The catalogue comprises 170 detections in the region Dec>=-5{deg} and |b|<6{deg}. About a third of the detections (N=67) have not been previously recorded in HI. While 29 detections have no discernible counterpart at any wavelength other than HI, 48 detections (28%) have a counterpart visible on optical or NIR images but are not recorded as such in the literature. New HI detections were found as close as 7.5Mpc (EZOA J2120+45), and at the edge of the Local Volume, at 10.1Mpc, we have found two previously unknown dwarf galaxies (EZOA J0506+31 and EZOA J0301+56). Existing large-scale structures crossing the northern ZoA have been established more firmly by the new detections, with the possibility of new filaments. We conclude that the high rate of 39% new HI\detections in the northern ZoA, which has been extensively surveyed with targeted observations in the past, proves the power of blind HI surveys. The full EBHIS survey, which will cover the full northern sky with a sensitivity comparable to the HIPASS survey of the southern sky, is expected to add many new detections and uncover new structures in the northern ZoA.
1974. The Fermi GBM catalog

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) is designed to enhance the scientific return from Fermi in studying gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). In its first two years of operation GBM triggered on 491 GRBs. We summarize the criteria used for triggering and quantify the general characteristics of the triggered GRBs, including their locations, durations, peak flux, and fluence. This catalog is an official product of the Fermi GBM science team, and the data files containing the complete results are available from the High-Energy Astrophysics Science Archive Research Center.
1975. The Fermi-GBM three-year X-ray burst catalog
ID:

Title:
The Fermi-GBM three-year X-ray burst catalog
Short Name:
J/ApJ/826/228
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) is an all-sky gamma-ray monitor well known in the gamma-ray burst (GRB) community. Although GBM excels in detecting the hard, bright extragalactic GRBs, its sensitivity above 8 keV and its all-sky view make it an excellent instrument for the detection of rare, short-lived Galactic transients. In 2010 March, we initiated a systematic search for transients using GBM data. We conclude this phase of the search by presenting a three-year catalog of 1084 X-ray bursts. Using spectral analysis, location, and spatial distributions we classified the 1084 events into 752 thermonuclear X-ray bursts, 267 transient events from accretion flares and X-ray pulses, and 65 untriggered gamma-ray bursts. All thermonuclear bursts have peak blackbody temperatures broadly consistent with photospheric radius expansion (PRE) bursts. We find an average rate of 1.4 PRE bursts per day, integrated over all Galactic bursters within about 10 kpc. These include 33 and 10 bursts from the ultra-compact X-ray binaries 4U 0614+09 and 2S 0918-549, respectively. We discuss these recurrence times and estimate the total mass ejected by PRE bursts in our Galaxy.
1976. The Fermi LAT fourth source catalog (4FGL)
ID:

Title:
The Fermi LAT fourth source catalog (4FGL)
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the fourth Fermi Large Area Telescope catalog (4FGL) of {gamma}-ray sources. Based on the first eight years of science data from the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope mission in the energy range from 50MeV to 1TeV, it is the deepest yet in this energy range. Relative to the 3FGL catalog, the 4FGL catalog has twice as much exposure as well as a number of analysis improvements, including an updated model for the Galactic diffuse {gamma}-ray emission, and two sets of light curves (one-year and two-month intervals). The 4FGL catalog includes 5064 sources above 4{sigma} significance, for which we provide localization and spectral properties. Seventy-five sources are modeled explicitly as spatially extended, and overall, 358 sources are considered as identified based on angular extent, periodicity, or correlated variability observed at other wavelengths. For 1336 sources, we have not found plausible counterparts at other wavelengths. More than 3130 of the identified or associated sources are active galaxies of the blazar class, and 239 are pulsars.

Description:
New astrometric reductions of the US Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC) all-sky observations were performed from first principles using the TGAS stars in the 8 to 11 magnitude range as reference star catalog. Significant improvements in the astrometric solutions were obtained and the UCAC5 catalog of mean positions at a mean epoch near 2001 was generated. By combining UCAC5 with Gaia DR1 data new proper motions on the Gaia coordinate system for over 107 million stars were obtained with typical accuracies of 1 to 2 mas/yr (R = 11 to 15 mag), and about 5 mas/yr at 16th mag. Proper motions of most TGAS stars are improved over their Gaia data and the precision level of TGAS proper motions is extended to many millions more, fainter stars. The database table uses actual NULLs for missing photometry, and all angular coordinates have been homogenised to degrees.
1978. The first Fermi LAT SNR catalog (1SC)

Title:
The first Fermi LAT SNR catalog (1SC)
Short Name:
J/ApJS/224/8
Date:

Publisher:

Description:
To uniformly determine the properties of supernova remnants (SNRs) at high energies, we have developed the first systematic survey at energies from 1 to 100GeV using data from the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). Based on the spatial overlap of sources detected at GeV energies with SNRs known from radio surveys, we classify 30 sources as likely GeV SNRs. We also report 14 marginal associations and 245 flux upper limits. A mock catalog in which the positions of known remnants are scrambled in Galactic longitude allows us to determine an upper limit of 22% on the number of GeV candidates falsely identified as SNRs. We have also developed a method to estimate spectral and spatial systematic errors arising from the diffuse interstellar emission model, a key component of all Galactic Fermi LAT analyses. By studying remnants uniformly in aggregate, we measure the GeV properties common to these objects and provide a crucial context for the detailed modeling of individual SNRs. Combining our GeV results with multiwavelength (MW) data, including radio, X-ray, and TeV, we demonstrate the need for improvements to previously sufficient, simple models describing the GeV and radio emission from these objects. We model the GeV and MW emission from SNRs in aggregate to constrain their maximal contribution to observed Galactic cosmic rays.
1979. The FIRST-2MASS red QSO survey. II.
ID:

Title:
The FIRST-2MASS red QSO survey. II.
Short Name:
J/ApJ/698/1095
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present results on a survey to find extremely dust-reddened Type 1 quasars. Combining the FIRST radio survey, the 2MASS Infrared Survey and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we have selected a candidate list of 122 potential red quasars. With more than 80% spectroscopically identified objects, well over 50% are classified as dust-reddened Type 1 quasars, whose reddenings (E(B-V)) range from approximately 0.1 to 1.5mag. They lie well off the color selection windows usually used to detect quasars and many fall within the stellar locus, which would have made it impossible to find these objects with traditional color selection techniques. The reddenings found are much more consistent with obscuration happening in the host galaxy rather than stemming from the dust torus. We find an unusually high fraction of broad absorption line (BAL) quasars at high redshift, all but one of them belonging to the low-ionization BAL (LoBAL) class and many also showing absorption in the metastable FeII line (FeLoBAL). The discovery of further examples of dust-reddened LoBAL quasars provides more support for the hypothesis that BAL quasars (at least LoBAL quasars) represent an early stage in the lifetime of the quasar. The fact that we see such a high fraction of BALs could indicate that the quasar is in a young phase in which quasar feedback from the BAL winds is suppressing star formation in the host galaxy.

Title:
The first 300 stars observed by the GPIES
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a statistical analysis of the first 300 stars observed by the Gemini Planet Imager Exoplanet Survey. This subsample includes six detected planets and three brown dwarfs; from these detections and our contrast curves we infer the underlying distributions of substellar companions with respect to their mass, semimajor axis, and host stellar mass. We uncover a strong correlation between planet occurrence rate and host star mass, with stars M_*_>1.5 M_{sun}_ more likely to host planets with masses between 2 and 13 M_Jup_ and semimajor axes of 3-100 au at 99.92% confidence. We fit a double power-law model in planet mass (m) and semimajor axis (a) for planet populations around high-mass stars (M_*_>1.5 M_{sun}_) of the form d^2^N/(dm da){prop.to}m^{alpha}^{alpha}^{beta}^, finding {alpha}=-2.4+/-0.8 and {beta}=-2.0+/-0.5, and an integrated occurrence rate of 9_-4_^+5^% between 5-13 M_Jup_ and 10-100 au. A significantly lower occurrence rate is obtained for brown dwarfs around all stars, with 0.8_-0.5_^+0.8^% of stars hosting a brown dwarf companion between 13-80 M_Jup_ and 10-100 au. Brown dwarfs also appear to be distributed differently in mass and semimajor axis compared to giant planets; whereas giant planets follow a bottom-heavy mass distribution and favor smaller semimajor axes, brown dwarfs exhibit just the opposite behaviors. Comparing to studies of short-period giant planets from the radial velocity method, our results are consistent with a peak in occurrence of giant planets between ~1 and 10 au. We discuss how these trends, including the preference of giant planets for high-mass host stars, point to formation of giant planets by core/pebble accretion, and formation of brown dwarfs by gravitational instability.
