201. Bell Laboratories H I Survey
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/VIII/28
Title:
Bell Laboratories H I Survey
Short Name:
VIII/28
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The sky north of declination -40{deg} was observed in the 21cm line of atomic hydrogen with the FWHM=2{deg} beam of the 20 foot horn reflector at AT&T Bell Laboratories, Crawford Hill. The survey covers a velocity range of 654km/s centered on the Galactic standard of rest, with 5.3km/s wide filters. This survey is distinguished by its sensitivity to low surface brightness features (antenna temperature about 50mK) and relative freedom from sidelobe contamination. High-velocity clouds are extracted and catalogued automatically. The data are presented in declination zones in equatorial and polar coordinates, and as R.A. - velocity images.

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
During the operational life of the Italian/Dutch X-ray satellite (1996-2002), BeppoSAX, its two Wide Field Cameras (WFCs) performed observations that covered the full sky at different epochs. Although the majority of analysis performed on BeppoSAX WFC data concentrated on the detection of transient sources, we have now applied the same techniques developed for the INTEGRAL/IBIS survey to produce the same work with the BeppoSAX WFC data. This work represents the first unbiased source list compilation produced from the overall WFC data set optimized for faint persistent source detection. This approach recovered 182 more sources compared to the previous WFC catalog reported in Verrecchia et al. (Cat. J/A+A/472/705). The catalog contains 404 sources detected between 3 and 17keV, 10 of which are yet to be seen by the new generation of telescopes.

Title:
Berkeley Low-Latitude H I Survey
Short Name:
VIII/11
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This survey consists of H I 21-cm spectra covering galactic latitudes from -10 degrees to +10 degrees and galactic longitudes from 10degrees to 250degrees. The observations were made with the Hat Creek 85-foot telescope between 1968 and 1970. The individual spectra contain 238 points per profile spaced every 5kHz and cover a velocity range of 250km/s. The velocity resolution is 2km/s (half-power of each filter) and the half-power beamwidth is 35arcmin. The spacing between points observed on the sky are 0.25degrees in galactic latitude and 0.5degrees in galactic longitude. Each spectrum or record consists of a header followed by 238 antenna temperatures. The header contains the galactic longitude, galactic latitude, and central velocity (LSR). The catalog contains a total of 38961 spectra.
204. BeSOS Be stars stellar parameters
ID:

Title:
BeSOS Be stars stellar parameters
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/474/5287
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Be phenomenon is present in about 20 per cent of B-type stars. Be stars show variability on a broad range of time-scales, which in most cases is related to the presence of a circumstellar disc of variable size and structure. For this reason, a time-resolved survey is highly desirable in order to understand the mechanisms of disc formation, which are still poorly understood. In addition, a complete observational sample would improve the statistical significance of the study of stellar and disc parameters. The 'Be Stars Observation Survey' (BeSOS) is a survey containing reduced spectra obtained using the Pontifica Universidad Catolica High Echelle Resolution Optical Spectrograph (PUCHEROS) with a spectral resolution of 17000 in the range 4260-7300{AA}. BeSOS's main objective is to offer consistent spectroscopic and time-resolved data obtained with one instrument. The user can download or plot the data and obtain stellar parameters directly from the website. We also provide a star-by-star analysis based on photometric, spectroscopic and interferometric data, as well as general information about the whole BeSOS sample. Recently, BeSOS led to the discovery of a new Be star HD 42167 and facilitated study of the V/R variation of HD 35165 and HD 120324, the steady disc of HD 110335 and the Be shell status of HD 127972. Optical spectra used in this work, as well as the stellar parameters derived, are available online at http://besos.ifa.uv.cl.
205. Be stars in LAMOST DR1

Title:
Be stars in LAMOST DR1
Short Name:
J/other/RAA/15.1
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We report on searching for Classical B-type emission-line (CBe) stars in the first data release of the Large Sky Area Multi-Object fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST; also called the Guo Shou Jing Telescope). A total of 192 objects (including 12 previously known CBes) were identified as CBe candidates with prominent HeI {lambda}4387, HeI {lambda}4471 and MgII {lambda}4481 absorption lines, as well as H{beta} {lambda}4861 and H{alpha} {lambda}6563 emission lines. These candidates significantly increase the currently known sample of CBes by about 8%. Most of the CBe candidates are distributed near the Galactic Anti-Center due to the observing strategy used for LAMOST. Only two CBes are in star clusters. These two CBes have ages of 15.8 and 398Myr, respectively.

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We report on observations of the COROT IR01 field with the Berlin Exoplanet Search Telescope (BEST). BEST is a small-aperture telescope with a wide field of view (FOV). It is dedicated to searching for variable stars within the target fields of the COROT space mission to aid in minimizing false-alarm rates, and identifying potential targets for additional science. COROT's observational program started in 2007 February, with the "initial run" field (IR01) observed for about 2 months. BEST observed this field for 12 nights spread over 3 months in winter 2006. From the total of 30,426 stars observed in the IR01 field, 3769 were marked as suspected variable stars, and 54 of these showed clear periodicity. From these, 19 periodic stars are within the part of the COROT FOV covered in our data set.
207. BEST periodic variable stars in LRa1 field
ID:

Title:
BEST periodic variable stars in LRa1 field
Short Name:
J/AJ/136/654
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
In this paper, we report on observations of the CoRoT LRa1 field with the Berlin Exoplanet Search Telescope (BEST). The current paper is part of a series of papers describing the results of our stellar variability survey. The BEST is a small aperture telescope with a wide field of view (FOV). It is dedicated to searching for stellar variability within the target fields of the CoRoT space mission to aid in minimizing false-alarm rates and identify potential targets for additional science. The LRa1 field is CoRoT's second long run field located in the galactic anticenter direction. We observed the LRa1 stellar field on 23 nights between November and March 2005/2006. From 6099 stars marked as variable, 39 were classified as periodic variable stars and 27 of them are within the CoRoT FOV. We also confirmed the variability for four stars listed in the General Catalogue of Variable Stars (GCVS).
208. BEST periodic variable stars in LRc2 field
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AJ/137/3911
Title:
BEST periodic variable stars in LRc2 field
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We report on photometric observations of the CoRoT LRc2 field with the new robotic Berlin Exoplanet Search Telescope II (BEST II). The telescope system was installed and commissioned at the Observatorio Cerro Armazones, Chile, in 2007. BEST II is a small aperture telescope with a wide field of view dedicated to the characterization of the stellar variability primarily in CoRoT target fields with high stellar densities. The CoRoT stellar field LRc2 was observed with BEST II up to 20 nights in 2007 July and August. From the acquired data containing about 100,000 stars, 426 new periodic variable stars were identified and 90% of them are located within the CoRoT exoplanetary CCD segments and may be of further interest for CoRoT additional science programs.
209. BEST variable stars in LRc1 field
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AJ/134/766
Title:
BEST variable stars in LRc1 field
Short Name:
J/AJ/134/766
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The COROT space mission will monitor several target fields for up to 150 days to perform asteroseismology and to search for extrasolar planets by photometric transits. Variable stars in the target fields are important objects for additional scientific studies but can also disturb the search for planetary transits. A variability characterization of the target fields prior to COROT observations is therefore important for two reasons: to find interesting variable stars to monitor further and to make an analysis of the impact of the variable stars on detecting extrasolar planet transits with COROT. The Berlin Exoplanet Search Telescope (BEST) is a small wide-angle telescope dedicated to high-precision photometry. It has observed a 9deg^2^ field of view centered at (RA,DE)=(19:00:00.0+00:01:55.2) (J2000.0) over 98 nights to search for variable stars in the surroundings of the first long-run target field (LRc1) of the COROT space mission. In this data set we identified 92 periodic variable stars, 86 of which are new discoveries and 6 of which are known from the General Catalogue of Variable Stars (GCVS). For five of the GCVS stars, variability could not be confirmed. Forty-three of the 92 detected periodic variable stars are identified as eclipsing binaries. We have evaluated the completeness of our survey for eclipsing binaries by comparing it to the expected fraction of eclipsing binaries based on Hipparcos observations. From this evaluation we show that the BEST data set presented here has a completeness of 20%-30% for periods longer than 1 day and is complete relative to Hipparcos for short-period binaries.
210. beta Cephei light curves from KELT project
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AJ/160/32
Title:
beta Cephei light curves from KELT project
Short Name:
J/AJ/160/32
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the results of a search for Galactic {beta} Cephei stars, which are massive pulsating stars with both pressure modes and mixed modes. Thus, these stars can serve as benchmarks for seismological studies of the interiors of massive stars. We conducted the search by performing a frequency analysis on the optical light curves of known O- and B-type stars with data from the Kilodegree Extremely Little Telescope exoplanet survey. We identify 113 {beta} Cephei stars, of which 86 are new discoveries, which altogether represent a 70% increase in the number currently known. An additional 97 candidates are identified. Among our targets, we find five new eclipsing binaries and 22 stars with equal frequency spacings suggestive of rotational splitting of nonradial pulsation modes. Candidates for runaway stars among our targets and a number of interesting individual objects are discussed. Most of the known and newly discovered {beta} Cephei stars will be observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite mission, providing by far the most comprehensive observational data set of massive main-sequence pulsating stars of sufficient quality for detailed asteroseismic studies. Future analysis of these light curves has the potential to dramatically increase our understanding of the structure of stellar interiors and the physical processes taking place therein.
