Updated Multiple Star Catalog (MSC): Sept 2021

Description:
The catalog of hierarchical stellar systems with three or more components is an update of the original 1997 version (Tokovinin, 1997-1999, J/A+AS/124/75). For 2000 hierarchies, the new Multiple Star Catalog (MSC) provides distances, component masses and periods, and supplementary information (astrometry, photometry, identifiers, orbits, notes). The MSC content and format are explained, and its incompleteness and strong observational selection are stressed. Nevertheless, the MSC can be used for statistical studies and is a valuable source for planning observations of multiple stars. Rare classes of stellar hierarchies found in the MSC (with six or seven components, extremely eccentric orbits, planar and possibly resonant orbits, hosting planets) are briefly presented. High-order hierarchies have smaller velocity dispersion compared to triples and are often associated with moving groups. The paper concludes with an analysis of the ratio of periods and separations between inner and outer subsystems. In wide hierarchies, the ratio of semimajor axes, estimated statistically, is distributed between 3 and 300, with no evidence of dynamically unstable systems.

Updated nearby galaxy catalog

Description:
We present an all-sky catalog of 869 nearby galaxies having individual distance estimates within 11Mpc or corrected radial velocities V_LG_<600km/s. The catalog is a renewed and expanded version of the Catalog of Neighboring Galaxies by Karachentsev et al (2004, cat. J/AJ/127/2031). It collects data on the following galaxy observables: angular diameters, apparent magnitudes in far-UV, B, and K_s_bands, H{alpha} and HI fluxes, morphological types, HI-line widths, radial velocities, and distance estimates. In this Local Volume (LV) sample, 108 dwarf galaxies still remain without measured radial velocities. The catalog yields also calculated global galaxy parameters: linear Holmberg diameter, absolute B magnitude, surface brightness, HI mass, stellar mass estimated via K-band luminosity, HI rotational velocity corrected for galaxy inclination, indicative mass within the Holmberg radius, and three kinds of "tidal index," which quantify the local density environment. The catalog is supplemented with data based on the local galaxies, which presents their optical and available H{alpha} images, as well as other services. We briefly discuss the Hubble flow within the LV and different scaling relations that characterize galaxy structure and global star formation in them. We also trace the behavior of the mean stellar mass density, HI-mass density, and star formation rate density within the volume considered.

Description:
This table contains an all-sky catalog of 869 nearby galaxies having individual distance estimates within 11 Mpc or corrected radial velocities relative to the Local Group centroid V&lt;sub&gt;LG&lt;/sub&gt; &lt; 600 km s&lt;sup&gt;-1&lt;/sup&gt;. The catalog is a renewed and expanded version of the previous Catalog of Neighboring Galaxies by Karachentsev et al. (2004, AJ, 127, 2031). It collects data on the following galaxy observables: angular diameters, apparent magnitudes in the far-UV, B, and K&lt;sub&gt;s&lt;/sub&gt; bands, H-alpha and H I fluxes, morphological types, H I-line widths, radial velocities, and distance estimates. In this Local Volume (LV) sample, 108 dwarf galaxies still remain without measured radial velocities. The catalog also lists calculated global galaxy parameters: the linear Holmberg diameters, absolute B magnitudes, surface brightnesses, H I masses, stellar masses estimated via K-band luminosity, H I rotational velocities corrected for galaxy inclination, indicative masses within the Holmberg radius, and three kinds of &quot;tidal index&quot; which quantify the local density environment. In the reference paper, the authors briefly discuss the Hubble flow within the LV and different scaling relations that characterize galaxy structure and global star formation in them. They also trace the behavior of the mean stellar mass density, H I-mass density, and star formation rate density within the volume considered. This table was created by the HEASARC in June 2013 based on electronic versions of Tables 1 and 2 from the reference paper which were obtained form the AJ web site.

23184. Updated O3N2 and N2 abundance indicators

Title:
Updated O3N2 and N2 abundance indicators
Short Name:
J/A+A/559/A114
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The use of integral field spectroscopy is since recently allowing to measure the emission line fluxes of an increasingly large number of star-forming galaxies both locally and at high redshift. Many studies have used these fluxes to derive gas-phase metallicity of the galaxies by applying the so-called strong-line methods. However, the metallicity indicators that these datasets use were empirically calibrated using few direct abundance data points (Te-based measurements). Furthermore, a precise determination of the prediction intervals of these indicators is commonly lacking in these calibrations. Such limitations might lead to systematic errors in determining the gas-phase metallicity, especially at high redshift, which might have a strong impact on our understanding of the chemical evolution of the Universe. The main goal of this study is to review the most widely used empirical oxygen calibrations, O3N2 and N2, by using new direct abundance measurements. We pay special attention to (1) the expected uncertainty of these calibrations as a function of the index value or abundance derived and (2) the presence of possible systematic offsets. This is possible thanks to the analysis of the most ambitious compilation of Te-based Hii regions to date. This new dataset compiles the Te-based abundances of 603 Hii regions extracted from the literature but also includes new measurements from the CALIFA survey.
23185. Updated parameters of 1743 open clusters

Title:
Updated parameters of 1743 open clusters
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/504/356
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
In this study, we follow up our recent paper (Monteiro et al., )2020MNRAS.499.1874M and present a homogeneous sample of fundamental parameters of open clusters in our Galaxy, entirely based on Gaia DR2 data. We used published membership probability of the stars derived from Gaia DR2 data and applied our isochrone fitting code, updated as in Monteiro et al. (2020MNRAS.499.1874M), to G_BP_ and G_RP_Gaia DR2 data for member stars. In doing this, we take into account the nominal errors in the data and derive distance, age, and extinction of each cluster. This work therefore provides parameters for 1743 open clusters and, as a by-product, a list of likely not physical or dubious open clusters is provided as well for future investigations. Furthermore, it was possible to estimate the mean radial velocity of 831 clusters (198 of which are new and unpublished so far), using stellar radial velocities from Gaia DR2 catalogue. By comparing the open cluster distances obtained from isochrone fitting with those obtained from a maximum likelihood estimate of individual member parallaxes, we found a systematic offset of (-0.05 {\pm} 0.04) mas.
23186. Updated photometry for star clusters in M33

Title:
Updated photometry for star clusters in M33
Short Name:
J/ApJS/211/22
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The photometric characterization of M33 star clusters is far from complete. In this paper, we present homogeneous UBVRI photometry of 708 star clusters and cluster candidates in M33 based on archival images from the Local Group Galaxies Survey, which covers 0.8deg^2^ along the galaxy's major axis. Our photometry includes 387, 563, 616, 580, and 478 objects in the UBVRI bands, respectively, of which 276, 405, 430, 457, and 363 do not have previously published UBVRI photometry. Our photometry is consistent with previous measurements (where available) in all filters. We adopted Sloan Digital Sky Survey ugriz photometry for complementary purposes, as well as Two Micron All Sky Survey near-infrared JHK photometry where available. We fitted the spectral-energy distributions of 671 star clusters and candidates to derive their ages, metallicities, and masses based on the updated PARSEC simple stellar populations synthesis models. The results of our {chi}^2^ minimization routines show that only 205 of the 671 clusters (31%) are older than 2Gyr, which represents a much smaller fraction of the cluster population than that in M31 (56%), suggesting that M33 is dominated by young star clusters (<1Gyr).

Publisher:
NASA/GSFC HEASARC
Description:
The all-sky Planck catalog of 1,227 clusters and cluster candidates (PSZ1) derived from Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect detections using the first 15.5 months of Planck satellite observations included 683 so-called previously known clusters. PSZ1 was first published in March 2013 (Planck Collaboration 2013 (2013yCat.8091....0P, and 2014A&amp;A...571A..29P). This HEASARC table contains an updated version of the PSZ1 catalog, version 2.1 (10-02-2015) according to the CDS documentation, reporting the further confirmation of 86 Planck-discovered clusters. In total, the PSZ1 now contains 947 confirmed clusters, of which 214 were confirmed as newly discovered clusters through follow-up observations undertaken by the Planck Collaboration. The updated PSZ1 contains redshifts for 913 systems, of which 736 (~80.6%) are spectroscopic, and associated mass estimates derived from the Y&lt;sub&gt;z&lt;/sub&gt; mass proxy. A new SZ quality flag is also provided for the remaining 280 candidates. This flag was derived from a novel artificial neural-network classification of the SZ signal. Based on this assessment, the purity of the updated PSZ1 catalogue is estimated to be 94%. This table was originally ingested by the HEASARC in May 2013. An updated version (2.1) was ingested by the HEASARC in October 2015 based on &lt;a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/581/A14"&gt;CDS Catalog J/A+A/581/A14&lt;/a&gt; files psz1v2_1.dat and notes.dat.

23189. Updated radial velocities from Gaia DR2

Title:
Updated radial velocities from Gaia DR2
Short Name:
J/A+A/653/A160
Date:
08 Feb 2022 14:02:40
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Gaia's Early Third Data Release (EDR3) does not contain new radial velocities because these will be published in Gaia's full third data release (DR3), expected in the first half of 2022. To maximise the usefulness of EDR3, Gaia's second data release (DR2) sources (with radial velocities) are matched to EDR3 sources to allow their DR2 radial velocities to also be included in EDR3. This presents two considerations: (i) a list of 70365 sources with potentially contaminated DR2 radial velocities has been published; and (ii) EDR3 is based on a new astrometric solution and a new source list, which means sources in DR2 may not be in EDR3. The two aims of this work are: (i) investigate the list in order to improve the DR2 radial velocities being included in EDR3 and to avoid false-positive hypervelocity candidates; and (ii) match the DR2 sources (with radial velocities) to EDR3 sources. Methods. Thetwo methods of this work are: (i) unpublished, preliminary DR3 radial velocities of sources on the list, and high-velocity stars not on the list, are compared with their DR2 radial velocities to identify and remove contaminated DR2 radial velocities from EDR3; and (ii) proper motions and epoch position propagation is used to attempt to match all sources with radial velocities in DR2 to EDR3 sources. The comparison of DR2 and DR3 radial velocities is used to resolve match ambiguities. EDR3 contains 7209831 sources with a DR2 radial velocity, which is 99.8% of sources with a radial velocity in DR2 (7224631). 14800 radial velocities from DR2 are not propagated to any EDR3 sources because (i) 3871 from the list are found to either not have a DR3 radial velocity or it differs significantly from its DR2 value, and five high-velocity stars not on the list are confirmed to have contaminated radial velocities, in one case because of contamination from the non-overlapping Radial Velocity Spectrometer windows of a nearby, bright star; and (ii) 10924 DR2 sources could not be satisfactorily matched to any EDR3 sources, so their DR2 radial velocities are also missing from EDR3. The reliability of radial velocities in EDR3 has improved compared to DR2 because the update removes a small fraction of erroneous radial velocities (0.05% of DR2 radial velocities and 5.5% of the list). Lessons learnt from EDR3 (e.g. bright star contamination) will improve the radial velocities in future Gaia data releases. The main reason for radial velocities from DR2 not propagating to EDR3 is not related to DR2 radial velocity quality. It is because the DR2 astrometry is based on one component of close binary pairs, while EDR3 astrometry is based on the other component, which prevents these sources from being unambiguously matched.

Title:
Updated 3rd Cat Variable Stars in Globular Clusters
Short Name:
V/97
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This Catalogue is an update to Helen Sawyer Hogg's Third Catalogue on Variable Stars in Globular Clusters (1973, David Dunlap Observatory Publications, Volume 3, Number 6). This update is based mainly on reference cards prepared by Helen Sawyer Hogg from articles published in the literature in the period 1973 to 1988. There are also some references entered from more recent literature and we are attempting to bring the catalogue up to date. Not all known globular clusters have been included, as the literature search is not at this point complete.
