- Description:
- A study of the gas content in 1038 interacting galaxies, essentially selected from Arp (<VII/74>), Arp and Madore (<VII/170>), Vorontsov-Velyaminov (<VII/236>) catalogues and some of the published literature, is presented here. The data on the interstellar medium have been extracted from a number of sources in the literature and compared with a sample of 1916 normal galaxies. The mean values for each of the different ISM tracers (FIR, 21cm, CO lines, X-ray) have been estimated by means of survival analysis techniques, in order to take into account the presence of upper limits.

- Description:
- We describe a large-scale far-infrared line and continuum survey of protoplanetary disk through to young debris disk systems carried out using the ACS instrument on the Herschel Space Observatory. This Open Time Key program, known as GASPS (Gas Survey of Protoplanetary Systems), targeted ~250 young stars in narrow wavelength regions covering the [OI] fine structure line at 63um the brightest far-infrared line in such objects. A subset of the brightest targets were also surveyed in [OI]145um, [CII] at 157um, as well as several transitions of HO and high-excitation CO lines at selected wavelengths between 78 and 180um. Additionally, GASPS included continuum photometry at 70, 100 and 160um, around the peak of the dust emission.

- 1.4GHz and X-ray sources in 12 clusters of galaxies
- Short Name:

- Description:
- Using Chandra imaging spectroscopy and Very Large Array (VLA) L-band radio maps, we have identified radio sources at P_1.4GHz_>=5x10^23^W/Hz and X-ray point sources (XPSs) at L_0.3-8keV_>=5x10^42^erg/s in L>L* galaxies in 12 high-redshift (0.4<z<1.2) clusters of galaxies. The radio galaxies and XPSs in this cluster sample, chosen to be consistent with Coma Cluster progenitors at these redshifts, are compared to those found at low-z analyzed in Hart et al. (Paper I, 2009ApJ...705..854H). Within a projected radius of 1Mpc of the cluster cores, we find 17 cluster radio galaxies (11 with secure redshifts, including one luminous FR II radio source at z=0.826, and six more with host galaxy colors similar to cluster ellipticals). Within this same projected radius, we identify seven spectroscopically confirmed cluster XPSs, all with cluster red-sequence (CRS) host galaxy colors. Consistent with the results from Martini et al. (2009ApJ...701...66M), we estimate a minimum X-ray active fraction of 1.4%+/-0.8% for cluster red-sequence galaxies in high-z clusters, corresponding to an approximate 10-fold increase from 0.15%+/-0.15% at low-z. Although complete redshift information is lacking for several XPSs in z>0.4 cluster fields, the increased numbers and luminosities of the CRS radio galaxies and XPSs suggest a substantial (9-10-fold) increase in the heat injected into high-redshift clusters by AGNs compared to the present epoch.

- Description:
- We present the first X-ray source catalog of the ASCA Medium Sensitivity Survey (AMSS, or the GIS catalog project), constructed from data at Galactic latitudes |b|>10{deg} observed between 1993 May and 1996 December. The catalog utilizes 368 combined fields and contains 1343 sources with the detection significance above 5{sigma} either in the survey bands of 0.7-7keV, 2-10keV, or 0.7-2keV, including target sources. For each source, the ASCA source name, position, a 90% error radius, count rates in the three bands, detection significances, fluxes, and a hardness ratio are provided. With extensive simulations, we carefully evaluate the data quality of the catalog. Results from cross-correlation with other existing catalogs are briefly summarized.

- Description:
- In succession to the first ASCA Medium Sensitivity Survey catalog (AMSS-I), we present the second X-ray source catalog (AMSS-II), constructed from the Gas Imaging Spectrometer (GIS) data covering Galactic latitudes |b|>10{deg} observed between 1997 January and 2000 May. The AMSS-II catalog uses 306 fields and contains a total of 1190 sources detected with significance of >5{sigma} in either the 0.7-7, 2-10, or 0.7-2keV band. The AMSS-I and AMSS-II catalogs list a total of 2533 sources from an area of 278{deg}^2^ and provides a unique database of X-ray sources in the flux range of 10^-13^-10^-11^ergs/cm^2^/s (0.7-10keV). We summarize statistical properties of a complete X-ray sample consisting of 1969 serendipitous selected from AMSS-I and AMSS-II.

- Global energetics of solar flares. VIII.
- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- One of the key problems in solar flare physics is the determination of the low-energy cut-off: the value that determines the energy of nonthermal electrons and hence flare energetics. We discuss different approaches to determine the low-energy cut-off in the spectrum of accelerated electrons: (I) the total electron number model, (II) the time-of-flight model (based on the equivalence of the time-of-flight and the collisional deflection time), (III) the warm target model of Kontar et al., and (IV) the model of the spectral cross-over between thermal and nonthermal components. We find that the first three models are consistent with a low-energy cutoff with a mean value of ~10keV, while the cross-over model provides an upper limit for the low-energy cutoff with a mean value of ~21keV. Combining the first three models we find that the ratio of the nonthermal energy to the dissipated magnetic energy in solar flares has a mean value of qE=0.57{+/-}0.08, which is consistent with an earlier study based on the simplified approximation of the warm target model alone (qE=0.51{+/-}0.17). This study corroborates the self-consistency between three different low-energy cutoff models in the calculation of nonthermal flare energies.

- Description:
- We present X-ray observations of ten globular clusters observed with the ROSAT PSPC. The clusters were chosen to have large core radii and to be nearby. Three clusters contain X-ray sources which are probably associated with the cluster. One is the previously discovered X-ray transient H1825-331 in NGC 6652. The other two, in NGC 6366 and NGC 6809, are new members of the class of low-luminosity sources, with luminosities in the region of 10^32^erg/s. Upper limits can be placed on the source temperatures of both sources, making them similar to sources found in other globular clusters by ROSAT.

- Globular Cluster System of NGC5846

- Description:
- NGC 5846 is a giant elliptical galaxy with a previously well studied globular cluster system (GCS), known to have a bimodal colour distribution with a remarkably high red fraction. Here we revisit the central galaxy regions searching for new globular cluster (GC) candidates, and measure magnitudes, colours and sizes for them. We also search for their X-ray counterparts. Methods: We use archival Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 images, from which we modelled and subtracted the host light distribution to increase the available sample of GCs. We performed photometry on the central objects, and measured sizes and coordinates for the entire GC system known in this galaxy. Results: We detect two dozen previously unknown GC candidates in the central reg ions. Reliable sizes are obtained for about 60 GCs; their typical effective radii are in the range 3-5pc. The largest clusters are located in the central regions. We find 7 X-ray counterparts to GCs, most of them in the central region. They are among the most luminous X-ray sources in NGC 5846. They are also optically luminous, compact and belong to the red subpopulation. Conclusions: The GCS of NGC 5846 is composed of relatively luminous X-ray sources.

- Globular cluster 47 Tuc Chandra studies

- Description:
- We combined Chandra ACIS observations of the globular cluster 47 Tucanae (47 Tuc) from 2000, 2002 and 2014-2015 to create a deeper X-ray source list, and study some of the faint radio millisecond pulsars (MSPs) present in this cluster. We have detected 370 X-ray sources within the half-mass radius (2.79 arcsec) of the cluster, 81 of which are newly identified, by including new data and using improved source detection techniques. The majority of the newly identified sources are in the crowded core region, indicating cluster membership. We associate five of the new X-ray sources with chromospherically active BY Dra or W UMa variables identified by Albrow et al. We present alternative positions derived from two methods, centroiding and image reconstruction, for faint, crowded sources. We are able to extract X-ray spectra of the recently discovered MSPs 47 Tuc aa, 47 Tuc ab, the newly timed MSP 47 Tuc Z, and the newly resolved MSPs 47 Tuc S and 47 Tuc F. Generally, they are well fitted by blackbody or neutron star atmosphere models, with temperatures, luminosities and emitting radii similar to those of other known MSPs in 47 Tuc, though 47 Tuc aa and 47 Tuc ab reach lower X-ray luminosities. We limit X-ray emission from the full surface of the rapidly spinning (542 Hz) MSP 47 Tuc aa, and use this limit to put an upper bound for amplitude of r-mode oscillations in this pulsar as {alpha}<2.5x10^-9^ and constrain the shape of the r-mode instability window.
