21931. The Photometric Magnitude Difference Catalog
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/II/235
Title:
The Photometric Magnitude Difference Catalog
Short Name:
II/235
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Photometric Magnitude Difference Catalog is a collection of all double star photometric data which does not contain astrometric information and is therefore inappropriate for the Washington Double Star Catalog. Magnitude difference information can be useful in estimating mass ratios, determining photocentric positions which are color dependent, or into investigations of variability in close binary systems. Due to uncertainties in bandpass characteristics or variability, no summary line is presented, rather a complete listing of all data.

Description:
We have recently carried out spectral synthesis modeling to determine T_eff_, log(g), vsin(i), and [Fe/H] for 1040 FGK-type stars on the Keck, Lick, and Anglo-Australian Telescope planet search programs. This is the first time that a single, uniform spectroscopic analysis has been made for every star on a large Doppler planet search survey. We identify a subset of 850 stars that have Doppler observations sufficient to detect uniformly all planets with radial velocity semiamplitudes K>30m/s and orbital periods shorter than 4yr.

Description:
Within this use case you recognize a physical association of stars close in space as opposed to a superpositon created by projection effects of stars very far one from the others. The key measure is distance derived from parallax. With the true members of the association (open cluster) you create a Herzsprung-Russell diagram as in the tutorial “the stars” (ivo://edu.gavo.org/eurovo/aida_stars). The Herzsprung-Russell diagram of stellar clusters is very important because of the low noise of few unrelated stars. If used in the classroom this advanced use case requires a reasonable understanding of histograms and bidimensional scatter diagrams. It is also rather long to perform from beginning to end.

Description:
The estimated true parallaxes of 115 carbon LPVs and their unbiased y-values (see Sect. 4) for a study of the period-luminosity relation. The tables contains the entry in the cited Stephenson's catalogue (1989, Cat. <III/156>), the log of the period in days, the absolute magnitude in the K-band, the y-quantity as defined in Sect. 4, the difference between the estimated true parallax and the observed one, the estimated true parallax, the square root of the weight (times 100) of every used y-value for Sample 1 PL-relation (Sect. 4) and the classification into three samples (see Subsec. 3.1).
21935. The PMM USNO-A1.0 Catalogue
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/I/243
Title:
The PMM USNO-A1.0 Catalogue
Short Name:
I/243
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
USNO-A1.0 is a catalog of 488,006,860 sources whose positions can be used for astrometric references. These sources were detected by the Precision Measuring Machine (PMM) built and operated by the U. S. Naval Observatory Flagstaff Station during the scanning and processing of the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey I (POSS-I) O and E plates, the UK Science Research Council SRC-J survey plates, and the European Southern Observatory ESO-R survey plates. The PMM detects and processes at and beyond the nominal limiting magnitude of these surveys, but the large number of spurious detections requires that a filter be used to eliminate as many as possible. USNO-A's sole inclusion requirement was that there be spatially coincident detections (within a 2 arcsecond radius aperture) on the blue and red survey plate. For field centers of -30 degrees and above, data come from POSS-I plates, while data from field centers of -35 and below come from SRC-J and ESO-R plates.
21936. The population of compact radio sources in ONC

Title:
The population of compact radio sources in ONC
Short Name:
J/ApJ/822/93
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present a deep centimeter-wavelength catalog of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC), based on a 30hr single-pointing observation with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array in its high-resolution A-configuration using two 1GHz bands centered at 4.7 and 7.3GHz. A total of 556 compact sources were detected in a map with a nominal rms noise of 3{mu}Jy/bm, limited by complex source structure and the primary beam response. Compared to previous catalogs, our detections increase the sample of known compact radio sources in the ONC by more than a factor of seven. The new data show complex emission on a wide range of spatial scales. Following a preliminary correction for the wideband primary-beam response, we determine radio spectral indices for 170 sources whose index uncertainties are less than +/-0.5. We compare the radio to the X-ray and near-infrared point-source populations, noting similarities and differences.
21937. The population of pulsating variable stars in Sextans

Title:
The population of pulsating variable stars in Sextans
Short Name:
J/AJ/157/35
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
A large extension of the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy, 7 deg^2^, has been surveyed for variable stars using the Dark Energy Camera at the Blanco Telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, Chile. We report seven anomalous Cepheids, 199 RR Lyrae stars, and 16 dwarf Cepheids in the field. This is only the fifth extragalactic system in which dwarf Cepheids have been systematically searched. Henceforth, the new stars increase the census of stars coming from different environments that can be used to asses the advantages and limitations of using dwarf Cepheids as standard candles in populations for which the metallicity is not necessarily known. The dwarf Cepheids found in Sextans have a mean period of 0.066 day and a mean g amplitude of 0.87 mag. They are located below the horizontal branch, spanning a range of 0.8 mag: 21.9<g<22.7. The number of dwarf Cepheids in Sextans is low compared with other galaxies such as Carina, which has a strong intermediate-age population. On the other hand, the number and ratio of RR Lyrae stars to dwarf Cepheids are quite similar to those of Sculptor, a galaxy which, as Sextans, is dominated by an old stellar population. The dwarf Cepheid stars found in Sextans follow a well-constrained period-luminosity relationship with an rms=0.05 mag in the g band, which was set up by anchoring to the distance modulus given by the RR Lyrae stars. Although the majority of the variable stars in Sextans are located toward the center of the galaxy, we have found two RR Lyrae stars and one anomalous Cepheid in the outskirts of the galaxy that may be extratidal stars and suggest that this galaxy may be undergoing tidal destruction. These possible extratidal variable stars share the same proper motions as Sextans, as seen by recent Gaia measurements. Two additional stars that we initially classified as foreground RR Lyrae stars may actually be other examples of Sextans extratidal anomalous Cepheids, although radial velocities are needed to prove that scenario.
21938. The populations of Carina. II. Abundances
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJS/230/28
Title:
The populations of Carina. II. Abundances
Short Name:
J/ApJS/230/28
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Chemical abundances are presented for 19 elements in a sample of 63 red giants in the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph), based on homogeneous 1D/LTE model atmosphere analyses of our own observations (32 stars) and data available in the literature (a further 31 independent stars). The (Fe) metallicity and [{alpha}/Fe] distribution functions have mean values and dispersions of -1.59 and 0.33dex ([Fe/H] range: -2.68 to -0.64) and 0.07 and 0.13dex ([{alpha}/Fe] range: -0.27 to 0.25), respectively. We confirm the finding of Venn+ (2012, J/ApJ/751/102) that a small percentage (some 10% in the present investigation) of the sample shows clear evidence for significant enrichment by Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) ejecta. Calcium, with the most accurately determined abundance of the {alpha}-elements, shows an asymmetric distribution toward smaller values of [Ca/Fe] at all [Fe/H], most significantly over -2.0<[Fe/H]<-1.0, suggestive of incomplete mixing of the ejecta of SNe Ia with the ambient medium of each of Carina's generations. Approximate color-magnitude diagram age estimates are presented for the sample, and together with our chemical abundances, compared with the results of our previous synthetic color-magnitude diagram analysis, which reported the details of Carina's four well-defined populations. We searched for the Na-O anticorrelation universally reported in the Galaxy's globular clusters and confirm that this phenomenon does not exist in Carina. We also found that one of the 32 stars in our sample has an extremely enhanced lithium abundance-A(Li)_NLTE_=+3.36, consistent with membership of the ~1% group of Li-rich stars in dSph described by Kirby+ (2012ApJ...752L..16K).
21939. The PPMXL Catalog
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/I/317
Title:
The PPMXL Catalog
Short Name:
I/317
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
USNO-B1.0 (Cat. I/284) and 2MASS (Cat. II/246) are the most widely used full-sky surveys. However, 2MASS has no proper motions at all, and USNO-B1.0 published only relative, not absolute (i.e. on ICRS) proper motions. We performed a new determination of mean positions and proper motions on the ICRS system by combining USNO-B1.0 and 2MASS astrometry. This catalog is called PPMXL, and it aims to be complete from the brightest stars down to about V=20 full-sky. PPMXL contains about 900 million objects, some 410 million with 2MASS photometry, and is the largest collection of ICRS proper motions at present. As representative for the ICRS we chose PPMX. The recently released UCAC3 (Cat. I/315) could not be used because we found plate-dependent distortions in its proper motion system north of -20{deg} declination. UCAC3 served as an intermediate system for {demta}<-20{deg}. The resulting typical individual mean errors of the proper motions range from 4mas/yr to more than 10mas/yr depending on observational history. The mean errors of positions at epoch 2000.0 are 80 to 120 mas, if 2MASS astrometry could be used, 150 to 300 mas else. We also give correction tables to convert USNO-B1.0 observations of e.g. minor planets to the ICRS system.

Description:
PPMXL is a catalog of positions, proper motions, 2MASS- and optical photometry of 900 million stars and galaxies, aiming to be complete down to about V=20 full-sky. It is the result of a re-reduction of USNO-B1 together with 2MASS to the ICRS as represented by PPMX. This service additionally provides improved proper motions computed according to Vickers et al, 2016 (:bibcode:`2016AJ....151...99V`).
