- Description:
- We estimate the galaxy stellar mass function and stellar mass density for star-forming and quiescent galaxies with 0.2<z<4. We construct a large, deep sample of galaxies selected using the new UltraVISTA DR1 data release (Cat. J/A+A/544/A156). Our analysis is based on precise 30-band photometric redshifts. By comparing these photometric redshifts with 10800 spectroscopic redshifts from the zCOSMOS bright (Cat. J/ApJS/172/70) and faint (Lilly et al. in prep) surveys, we find an accuracy of sigma(dz/(1+z))=0.008 at i<22.5 and sigma(dz/(1+z))=0.03 at 1.5<z<4.

- Description:
- Optical polarization data in the UBVRI filter system for eight bright northern Be stars are presented here as the continuation of a long-term monitoring project begun in 1984. There are no strong cases of night-to-night variability, and the only star showing unmistakable changes in polarization from year to year over the nine years covered by the program is Pi Aquarii. Even though the observed sample spans a wide range in spectral type, vsini, and degree of intrinsic polarization, the normalized wavelength dependence of the polarization is surprisingly similar for all of the stars. Analysis of the wavelength dependence of the variable polarization of {pi} Aqr in terms of a simple equatorial-disk model suggests that changes in the circumstellar electron number density alone may be sufficient to account for the observations, but it is not clear what real physical mechanism is involved.

- Description:
- Ongoing and future surveys with repeat imaging in multiple bands are producing (or will produce) time-spaced measurements of brightness, resulting in the identification of large numbers of variable sources in the sky. A large fraction of these are periodic variables: compilations of these are of scientific interest for a variety of purposes. Unavoidably, the data sets from many such surveys not only have sparse sampling, but also have embedded frequencies in the observing cadence that beat against the natural periodicities of any object under investigation. Such limitations can make period determination ambiguous and uncertain. For multiband data sets with asynchronous measurements in multiple passbands, we wish to maximally use the information on periodicity in a manner that is agnostic of differences in the light-curve shapes across the different channels. Given large volumes of data, computational efficiency is also at a premium. This paper develops and presents a computationally economic method for determining periodicity that combines the results from two different classes of period-determination algorithms. The underlying principles are illustrated through examples. The effectiveness of this approach for combining asynchronously sampled measurements in multiple observables that share an underlying fundamental frequency is also demonstrated.

- Multi-epoch photometry of {delta} Ori
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/520/A89
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- For years, {delta} Ori was considered a normal binary with an O9.5 II primary exhibiting apsidal-line advance. However, in 2002 radial-velocity curves of both binary components derived from the IUE and optical spectra using the cross-correlation technique have been published by Harvin et al. (2002ApJ...565.1216H); surprisingly low masses of 11.2 and 5.6M_{sun}_ were obtained. We obtained new spectra in the red spectral region and new UBV photometry. Using all published photometry and radial velocities, we deduced more accurate orbital and apsidal line periods. The main result of this paper is to show that the observed line spectra of {delta} Ori are composed of the lines of the O9.5 II primary and a similarly hot tertiary, while the lines of a cooler B-type secondary are too faint to be detected in the available spectra. The character of the light curve (low-amplitude partial eclipses and a non-negligible scatter of the data) does not allow for a unique light-curve solution. Nevertheless, we show that the assumption of normal primary-component mass and radius corresponding to the O9.5 II classification (25M_{sun}_, 16-17R_{sun}_) leads to consistent parameters for the system.

- Multifrequency catalog of LINERs
- Short Name:
- J/other/RMxAA/35
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the first Catalog of Low Ionization Emission Line Galaxies (LINERs or Liners, which is the simplest name, and which we shall adopt in what follows). The Catalog "MCL" (Multifrequency Catalog of Liners), contains 476 entries and contains both broad-band and monochromatic emission data (ranging from radio to X-ray frequencies) of colors, and other data compiled from the literature and various data bases, as indicated in the references. Most of the galaxies can be considered "pure" Liners on the basis of the Veilleux & Osterbrock (1987ApJS...63..295V) classification as suggested by Ho, Filippenko, & Sargent (1997ApJS..112..315H). However, a considerable number of transition (Liners-H II or Liners-Starburst) objects are also included. One of the open questions, is whether Liners should be considered as a class of galaxies (like Seyfert galaxies for instance) or rather, as an heterogeneous group of objects. We believe the study of Liners as a group is very interesting, precisely because they very likely represent a transition between non-thermal and starburst activity, and probably also between "active" and "non- active" galaxies. This catalog may be used as a basis for statistical research. A preliminary discussion of the main statistical properties of Liners, in the range from radio to X-ray frequencies, is given here.

- Multifrequency monitoring of RU Lupi

- Description:
- In this paper we present the results of a long campaign of coordinated (sometimes simultaneous) multifrequency observations, from X-ray to radio wavelengths of the extreme T Tauri star RU Lupi. The large amount of data obtained can be useful to understanding the physics governing the intriguing behaviour of this pre-main-sequence star. In particular, from the whole set of data, a model with a protoplanetary accretion disk around a moderately magnetic star seems to be the most promising picture for this source.

- Multiphotometry of M31 outer halo globular clusters
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/623/A65
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- In this paper, we present photometry of 53 globular clusters (GCs) in the M31 outer halo, including the GALEX FUV and NUV, SDSS ugriz, 15 intermediate-band filters of BATC, and 2MASS JHKs bands. By comparing the multicolour photometry with stellar population synthesis models, we determine the metallicities, ages, and masses for these GCs, aiming to probe the merging/accretion history of M31. We find no clear trend of metallicity and mass with the de-projected radius. The halo GCs with age younger than ~8Gyr are mostly located at the de-projected radii around 100kpc, but this may be due to a selection effect. We also find that the halo GCs have consistent metallicities with their spatially-associated substructures, which provides further evidence of the physical association between them. Both the disk and halo GCs in M31 show a bimodal luminosity distribution. However, we should emphasize that there are more faint halo GCs which are not being seen in the disk. There are more faint halo GCs than the disk ones, and these faint GCs constitute the fainter part in the luminosity function. The bimodal luminosity function of the halo GCs may reflect different origin or evolution environment in their original hosts. The M31 halo GCs includes one intermediate metallicity group (-1.5<[Fe/H]<-0.4) and one metal-poor group ([Fe/H]<-1.5), while the disk GCs have one metal-rich group more. There are considerable differences between the halo GCs in M31 and the Milky Way (MW). The total number of M31 GCs is approximately three times more numerous than that of the MW, however, M31 has about six times the number of halo GCs in the MW. Compared to M31 halo GCs, the Galactic halo ones are mostly metal-poor. Both the numerous halo GCs and the higher-metallicity component are suggestive of an active merger history of M31.

- Description:
- For the search of Herbig Ae/Be objects in the extremely young open cluster NGC 6611 we have selected a sample of 52 pre-main sequence candidates, discovered by Walker (1961ApJ...133..438W), Sagar & Joshi (1979Ap&SS..66....3S), Chini & Wargau (1990A&A...227..213C) and The et al. (1990A&AS...82..319T). We continue the approach of the last paper by studying each star individually with new and unpublished Walraven WULBV, Johnson/Cousins UBV(RI)_C_ and Johnson JHKLM photometric data as well as low resolution spectroscopy. For a description of the Walraven, UBVRI, IJHKLMN and RI Cousins photometric systems, see e.g. <GCPD/11>, <GCPD/08>, <GCPD/09> and <GCPD/54>

- Description:
- We present a multi-wavelength analysis of the young open cluster NGC 2362; UBVRcIc CCD photometric observations, together with available data in the Chandra database, near-infrared data from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS), and recently published H{alpha} spectroscopy were used to get information about the evolutionary stage of the cluster and the main physical properties of its stellar content. Cluster membership is estimated for every individual star by means of zero-age main sequence (ZAMS) and isochrone fitting. The cluster is confirmed to host a rich population of pre-main-sequence (PMS) objects and to contain a large number of X-ray-emitting stars, which reach from the PMS members of GK spectral type up to the most luminous OB main-sequence (MS) members. The PMS cluster members show no significant age spread, and the comparison to both PMS and post-MS isochrones suggests an homogeneous age for all cluster members. The analysis allows us to assess the validity of currently used PMS evolutionary models and supports the suggestion of a well-defined positive correlation of the X-ray emission from PMS stars with their bolometric luminosity. Clear differences are found between the X-ray activity properties of MS and PMS cluster members, both in the relation between X-ray luminosity and bolometric luminosity, and in spectral properties as well.
