Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Washington Visual Double Star Catalog, 1996.0 (WDS) is the successor to the catalog of the same name dated 1984 <I/107>. The WDS is intended to contain all known visual double stars for which at least one differential measure has been published through the end of 1995. It includes a discoverer code, the date of the first and last observations, the number of observations, the position angle and separation for the first and last observation, the magnitudes and spectral types of the components (when available) the proper motion of the system, Durchmusterung numbers of the components and notes for further information.

Description:
The radio continuum emission of the spiral galaxy M31 has been mapped at a wavelength of 21cm with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope, at an angular resolution of 23"x35", corresponding to a linear resolution of 70x115pc. Five fields have been observed which, when combined, cover the main part of the disk of M31. A catalogue of sources inside the M31 area with a flux density larger than 1mJy (five times the rms noise) is presented.

Description:
The Westerbork Northern Sky Survey (WENSS) is a low-frequency radio survey that covers the whole sky north of 30{deg} at a wavelength of 92cm (330MHz) to a limiting flux density of approximately 18 mJy (5{sigma}). This survey has a resolution of 54"x54" cosec(delta) and a positional accuracy for strong sources of 1.5".

Title:
The WGACAT version of ROSAT sources
Short Name:

Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
WGACAT is a catalogue of point sources generated at HEASARC from all the ROSAT PSPC (Position Sensitive Proportional Counter) pointing observations from Feb 1991 to March 1994. These were the files available in the public archive at HEASARC as of September 1994. This catalog is an independent research effort aimed at releasing as quickly as possible a list of sources detected by ROSAT in its pointed phase to: (1) identify the detected sources, (2) ensure their timely observation by currently active X-ray missions e.g. ASCA, (3) to search for objects which show exceptional time variability and spectral properties and (4) to provide an independent check of the detection technique used in the official ROSAT project (SAS) processing. WGACAT stands for N.E. White (HEASARC/GSFC). P. Giommi (ESA), and L. Angelini (HEASARC/GSFC)

Description:
WGACAT is a point source catalogue generated from all ROSAT PSPC (Position Sensitive Proportional Counter) pointed observations. This catalog has been generated by N.E. White (HEASARC/GSFC), P. Giommi (SDC/ASI) and L. Angelini (HEASARC/GSFC) and is a private research effort, not related to the official catalogs generated by the ROSAT project. The WGACAT was made first publicly available in November 1994 through the HEASARC on-line service (White, Giommi and Angelini 1994), with a first minor revision in March 1995 (WGACAT95). It was generated using all the public ROSAT PSPC pointed data available than, corresponding to 75% of the entire set, and featured ~ 68000 detections of which 62000 were unique sources. The current version, released in May 2000, is the final and complete version of WGACAT and includes the remaining sequences not processed in the WGACAT95. WGACAT (May 2000) contains about 88,000 detections, with more than 84,000 individual sources, obtained from 4160 sequences. The catalog was generated using an optimized sliding cell detect algorithm in XIMAGE (first developed for the EXOSAT project). The inner and outer parts of the images were run separately, to maximize the sensitivity to source detection. This method is very sensitive in finding point sources, but can also find spurious sources where there is extended emission. We have visually inspected each detection, removed the obvious spurious cases and assigned a quality flag to each detection.
22146. The WHIQII survey: compact blue galaxies

The WHIQII survey: compact blue galaxies
Short Name:

Publisher:

Description:
As part of the WIYN High Image Quality Indiana-Irvine (WHIQII) survey, we present 123 spectra of faint emission-line galaxies, selected to focus on intermediate redshift (0.4<~z<~0.8) galaxies with blue colors that appear physically compact on the sky. The sample includes 15 true Luminous Compact Blue Galaxies (LCBGs) and an additional 27 slightly less extreme emission-line systems. These galaxies represent a highly evolving class that may play an important role in the decline of star formation since z~1, but their exact nature and evolutionary pathways remain a mystery. Here, we use emission lines to determine metallicities and ionization parameters, constraining their intrinsic properties and state of star formation. Some LCBG metallicities are consistent with a "bursting dwarf" scenario, while a substantial fraction of others are not, further confirming that LCBGs are a highly heterogeneous population but are broadly consistent with the intermediate redshift field. In agreement with previous studies, we observe overall evolution in the luminosity-metallicity relation at intermediate redshift. Our sample, and particularly the LCBGs, occupies a region in the empirical R_23_-O_32_ plane that differs from luminous local galaxies and is more consistent with dwarf irregulars at the present epoch, suggesting that cosmic "downsizing" is observable in even the most fundamental parameters that describe star formation.

Description:
High Synchrotron Peaked blazars (HSPs) dominate the gamma sky at energies larger than a few GeV; however, only a few hundred blazars of this type have been catalogued so far. In this paper we present the 2WHSP sample, the largest and most complete list of HSP blazars available to date, which is an expansion of the 1WHSP catalog of gamma-ray source candidates off the Galactic plane. We cross-matched a number of multi-wavelength surveys (in the radio, infrared and X-ray bands) and applied selection criteria based on the radio to IR and IR to X-ray spectral slopes. To ensure the selection of genuine HSPs we examined the SED of each candidate and estimated the peak frequency of its synchrotron emission ({nu}_peak_) using the ASDC SED tool, including only sources with {nu}_peak_>10^15^Hz (equivalent to {nu}_peak_>4eV). We have assembled the largest and most complete catalog of HSP blazars to date, which includes 1691 sources. A number of population properties, such as infrared colours, synchrotron peak, redshift distributions, and gamma-ray spectral properties, have been used to characterise the sample and maximize completeness. We also derived the radio logN-logS distribution. This catalog has already been used to provide seeds to discover new very high energy objects within Fermi-LAT data and to look for the counterparts of neutrino and ultra high energy cosmic ray sources, showing its potential for the identification of promising high-energy gamma, sources and multi-messenger targets.

Description:
This paper presents the results of the largest very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) absolute astrometry campaign to date of 13645 radio source observations with the Very Long Baseline Array. Of these, 7220 have been detected, including 6755 target sources that have never been observed with VLBI before. This makes the present VLBI catalog the largest ever published. The positions of the target sources have been determined with the median uncertainty of 1.7mas, and 15542 images of 7171 sources have been generated. Unlike previous absolute radio astrometry campaigns, observations were made at 4.3 and 7.6GHz simultaneously using a single wide-band receiver. Because of the fine spectral and time resolutions, the field of view was 4'-8'-much greater than the 10"-20" in previous surveys. This made possible the use of input catalogs with low position accuracy and the detection of a compact component in extended sources. Unlike previous absolute astrometry campaigns, both steep- and flat-spectrum sources were observed. The observations were scheduled in the so-called filler mode to fill the gaps between other high-priority programs. This was achieved by the development of the totally automatic scheduling procedure.
