- Title:
- Argentina High-Latitude H I Survey

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- This survey consists of H I 21-cm spectra covering the southern sky with absolute galactic latitude |b|>10 degrees and a declination dec<-25 degrees. The observations were made with the 30m telescope of the Instituto Argentino de Radioastronomia during 1973 to 1977 and were described in Colomb et al. (1977A&AS...29...89C). The data were obtained by keeping the telescope fixed on the meridian at the desired declination and letting the sky drift through the field. The individual spectra were obtained with a 56-channel filterbank and covering the velocity range from about -40 to +40km/s. The velocity resolution is 2km/s, and the beamwidth is 30arcmin.

- Description:
- We describe the motivation, field locations and stellar selection for the Abundances and Radial velocity Galactic Origins Survey (ARGOS) spectroscopic survey of 28000 stars in the bulge and inner disc of the Milky Way galaxy across latitudes of b=-5{deg} to -10{deg}. The primary goal of this survey is to constrain the formation processes of the bulge and establish whether it is predominantly a merger or instability remnant. From the spectra (R=11000), we have measured radial velocities and determined stellar parameters, including metallicities and [{alpha}/Fe] ratios. Distances were estimated from the derived stellar parameters and about 14000 stars are red giants within 3.5kpc of the Galactic Centre. In this paper, we present the observations and analysis methods. Subsequent papers (III and IV) will discuss the stellar metallicity distribution and kinematics of the Galactic bulge and inner disc, and the implications for the formation of the bulge.

- Description:
- We present results from ground based VLT/FLAMES spectroscopy in combination with HST data for six Galactic globular clusters. The aim of this work is to probe whether these massive clusters host an intermediate-mass black hole at their center using analytical Jeans models.

- Description:
- One of the surprises of the Herschel mission was the detection of ArH+, toward the Crab Nebula in emission and in absorption toward strong Galactic background sources. Although, these detections were limited to the first quadrant of the Galaxy, the existing data suggests that ArH+ ubiquitously and exclusively probes the diffuse atomic regions of the interstellar medium. In this study we extend the coverage of ArH+ to other parts of the Galaxy with new observations of its J=1-0 transition along seven Galactic sight lines toward bright sub-millimetre continuum sources. We aim to benchmark its efficiency as a tracer of purely atomic gas by evaluating its correlation (or lack of correlation as suggested by chemical models) with other well known atomic gas tracers like OH+ and H_2_O+ and the molecular gas tracer CH. The observations of the J=1-0 line of ArH+ near 617.5GHz were made feasible with the new, sensitive SEPIA660 receiver on the APEX 12m telescope. Further, the two sidebands of this receiver allowed us to observe the N_KaKc_=1_1,0_-1_0,1_ transitions of para-H_2_O+ at 607.227GHz simultaneously with the ArH+ line. We model the optically thin absorption spectra of the different species and subsequently derived their column densities. By analysing the steady state chemistry of OH+ and o-H_2_O+ we derive on average a cosmic-ray ionisation rate of 2.3+/-0.3x10^-16^s^-1^, toward the sightlines studied in this work. Using the derived values of the cosmic-ray ionisation rates and the observed ArH+ abundances we constrain the molecular fraction of the gas traced by ArH+ to lie below 2x10^-2^ with a median value of 8.8x10^-4^. Combined, our observations of ArH+, OH+, H_2_O+ and CH probe different regimes of the interstellar medium, from diffuse atomic to diffuse and translucent molecular clouds. Over Galactic scales, we see that the distribution of N(ArH+) is associated with that of N(H), particularly in the inner Galaxy (within 7 kpc of the Galactic center) with potentially even contributions from the warm neutral medium phase of atomic gas at larger galactocentric distances. We derive an average ortho-to-para ratio for H_2_O+ of 2.1+/-1.0, which corresponds to a nuclear spin temperature of 41K, consistent with the typical gas temperatures of diffuse clouds.

- Description:
- The study of noble gas compounds has gained renewed interest thanks to the recent detection of ArH^+^ in the interstellar medium (ISM). The analysis of physical-chemical conditions in the regions of the ISM where ArH^+^ is observed requires accurate collisional data of ArH^+^ with He, H_2_, electrons, and H. The main goals of this work are to compute the first three-dimensional potential energy surface (PES) to study the interaction of ArH^+^ with He, analyze the influence of the isotopic effects in the rate coefficients, and evaluate the rovibrational relaxation rates. Two ab initio grids of energy were computed at the coupled cluster with single, double, and perturbative triple excitations (CCSD(T)) level of theory using the augmented correlation consistent polarized quadruple, and quintuple zeta basis sets (aug-cc-pVQZ, and aug-cc-pV5Z) and a grid at the complete basis set limit was determined. The analytical representation of the PES was performed using the reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). The dynamics of the system was studied using the close coupling method. The differences in the rate coefficients for the isotopes ^36^ArH^+^, ^38^ArH^+^, and ^40^ArH^+^ in collision with He are negligible. However, the rotational rates for the collision of ArD+ with He cannot be estimated from those for ArH^+^+He. Comparison with previous rates for the 36ArH++He collision showed discrepancies for |{Delta}j|>2, and in the case of high initial rotational states of 36ArH+ differences were found even for |{Delta}j|=1. The rates for transitions between different vibrational states were also examined. Finally, new sets of rotational rates for ^36^ArH^+^+He and ^36^ArD^+^+He are reported.

- Description:
- ARI katkat is a catalog of star catalogues in the spirit of G. Teleki's catalog of star catalogs (`1989BOBeo.140..131T`_ and references in there). It contains 2573 catalogs suitable for astrometric usage, starting with Flamsteed (1835) and ending in the 1970ies. For almost all of them, there is a column description file (as PDF, and unfortunately sometimes in German) and the digitized content. .. _1989BOBeo.140..131T: http://ads.g-vo.org/abs/1989BOBeo.140..131T
