- Description:
- This catalogue contains data on stars in sky area of the open cluster NGC 6611. The catalogue is based on a new reduction of positions, proper motions, and photometric data whenever published in this region and includes among others, Hipparcos, AC/GSC and Tautenburg Schmidt plate observations. The basis of compiled catalogue is made of stars distributed over a circular area with radius of 22.8arcmin centered on the cluster NGC 6611 (Kharchenko and Schilbach, 1995AN....316...91K). To construct the compiled catalogue, we used also astrometric data published by Van Schewick (1962VeUSB..62....1V), Kamp (1974A&AS...16....1K), Tucholke et al. (1986A&AS...66..311T), Bastian and Roeser (1993, Cat. <I/193>), Roeser (1996, in "An updated GSC as the astrometric reference for minor planet observations", Kluwer Dordrecht, p. 481.), Hillenbrand et al. (1993, Cat. <J/AJ/106/1906>), and photometry published by Walker (1961ApJ...133..438W), Hoag et al. (1961PUSNO..17..343H), Hiltner and Morgan (1969AJ.....74.1152H), Sagar and Joshi (1979Ap&SS..66....3S), The et al (1990A&AS...82..319T), Hillenbrand et al. (1993, Cat. <J/AJ/106/1906>) as it described by Belikov et al. (1998, A&A, in press, this paper, 1999A&AS..134..525B). The catalogue contains 2185 stars up to the limiting magnitudes V=16.78mag. It includes equatorial (equinox 2000.0 and epoch 1990.77) and rectangular coordinates, absolute proper motions with respect to the Hipparcos proper motion system, photometric data (results of UBV, HJK photometry and color excess) and cluster membership probabilities. X - and Y - directions correspond to right ascension and declination directions. The rms errors of right ascension and declination are 0.008sec and 0.14arcsec, respectively. The individual rms errors of proper motions and V-magnitudes are given in the catalogue. The membership probabilities of the cluster stars belonging to the core and corona were determined using information both on spatial and proper motion distributions of stars in the field.

- Title:
- Optical photometry of the ONC. II.

- Description:
- We present a new analysis of the stellar population of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC) based on multi-band optical photometry and spectroscopy. We study the color-color diagrams in BVI, plus a narrowband filter centered at 6200{AA}, finding evidence that intrinsic color scales valid for main-sequence dwarfs are incompatible with the ONC in the M spectral-type range, while a better agreement is found employing intrinsic colors derived from synthetic photometry, constraining the surface gravity value as predicted by a pre-main-sequence isochrone. We refine these model colors even further, empirically, by comparison with a selected sample of ONC stars with no accretion and no extinction. We consider the stars with known spectral types from the literature, and extend this sample with the addition of 65 newly classified stars from slit spectroscopy and 182 M-type from narrowband photometry; in this way, we isolate a sample of about 1000 stars with known spectral type. We introduce a new method to self-consistently derive the stellar reddening and the optical excess due to accretion from the location of each star in the BVI color-color diagram. This enables us to accurately determine the extinction of the ONC members, together with an estimate of their accretion luminosities. We adopt a lower distance for the Orion Nebula than previously assumed, based on recent parallax measurements. With a careful choice of also the spectral-type-temperature transformation, we produce the new Hertzsprung-Russell diagram of the ONC population, more populated than previous works.

- Title:
- Photometry of M31 globular cluster EXT8
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/651/A102
- Date:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We recently found the globular cluster (GC) EXT8 in M31 to have an extremely low metallicity of [Fe/H]=-2.91+/-0.04 using high-resolution spectroscopy. Here we present a colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) for EXT8, obtained with the Wide Field Camera 3 on board the Hubble Space Telescope. Compared with the CMDs of metal-poor Galactic GCs, we find that the upper red giant branch (RGB) of EXT8 is about 0.03mag bluer in F606W-F814W and slightly steeper, as expected from the low spectroscopic metallicity. The observed colour spread on the upper RGB is consistent with being caused entirely by the measurement uncertainties, and we place an upper limit of sigma(F606W-F814W)=0.015mag on any intrinsic colour spread. The corresponding metallicity spread can be up to sigma([Fe/H])=0.2dex or >0.7dex, depending on the isochrone library adopted. The horizontal branch (HB) is located mostly on the blue side of the instability strip and has a tail extending to at least M(F606W)=+3, as in the Galactic GC M15. We identify two candidate RR Lyrae variables and several UV-luminous post-HB/post-AGB star candidates, including one very bright (M(F300X)=-3.2) source near the centre of EXT8. The surface brightness of EXT8 out to a radius of 25 arcsec is well fitted by a Wilson-type profile with an ellipticity of epsilon=0.20, a semi-major axis core radius of 0.25", and a central surface brightness of 15.2mag per square arcsec in the F606W band, with no evidence of extra-tidal structure. Overall, EXT8 has properties consistent with it being a "normal", but very metal-poor GC, and its combination of relatively high mass and very low metallicity thus remains challenging to explain in the context of GC formation theories operating within the hierarchical galaxy assembly paradigm.

- CDS
- Description:
- This directory contains movies in mpeg format which show models for the time evolution of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram of a very young open cluster between 0 and 30Myr. Four different star formation scenario's are considered, (a) instantaneous star formation, (b) constant rate of star formation with time, (c) increasing rate of star formation, and (d) decreasing rate of star formation. For the latter three scenario's, models for a duration of the star formation episode {delta}t of 0.1, 1.0 and 10Myr are computed.

- UBVI CCD Photometry of M11 - II.
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/310/982
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- This directory contains Johnson-Cousins UBVI photometric data for M11 (NGC 6705) and a neighboring field (around PN G027.4-03.5). The photometric data for M11 are tightly matched to the SAAO E-region standard system (Menzies et al. SAAO Circ., 1989SAAOC..13....1M; Menzies et al., 1991MNRAS.248..642M; Kilkenny et al., 1998MNRAS.294...93K). For the PN G027.4-03.5 region, the standard system of Landolt (1992, Cat. <II/183>) was used and small systematic difference in photometry between the two tables may be present, in particular in (U-B). Table 2 contains UBVI data for 14,179 stars brighter than V=17mag in M11 (about 40arcmin x 40arcmin region). The star numbers and proper motion memberships by McNamara et al. (1977A&AS...27..117M) and Su et al. (1998, Cat. <J/A+AS/128/255>) are also identified and included. Table 3 contains UBVI data for 3,676 stars around PN G027.4-03.5.

- Ultra-cool dwarfs candidates in Gaia DR2
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/619/L8
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The second Gaia data release (Gaia DR2) contains high-precision positions, parallaxes, and proper motions for 1.3 billion sources. The resulting Hertzsprung-Russel diagram reveals fine structures throughout the mass range. This paper aims to investigate the content of Gaia DR2 at the low-mass end and to characterize ultra-cool and brown dwarfs. We first retrieved the sample of spectroscopically confirmed ultra-cool and brown dwarfs in Gaia DR2.We used their locus in the precise Hertzsprung-Russel diagram to select new candidates and to investigate their properties. The number of spectroscopically confirmed objects recovered in Gaia DR2 corresponds to 61% and 74% of the expected number of objects with an estimated Gaia magnitude G_est_<=21.5 and 20.3, respectively. This fills much of the gap to Gaia DR1. Furthermore, Gaia DR2 contains ~13000>=M7 and 631 new L candidates. A tentative classification suggests that a few hundred of them are young or subdwarf candidates. Their distance distribution shows that the solar neighborhood census is still incomplete. Conclusions. Gaia DR2 offers a great wealth of information on low-mass objects. It provides a homogeneous and precise catalog of candidates that is worthwhile to be further characterized with spectroscopic observations.

- VI photometry of sources in the halo of NGC253
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/736/24
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have obtained Magellan/IMACS and HST/ACS imaging data that resolve red giant branch stars in the stellar halo of the starburst galaxy NGC 253. The HST data cover a small area, and allow us to accurately interpret the ground-based data, which cover 30% of the halo to a distance of 30kpc, allowing us to make detailed quantitative measurements of the global properties and structure of a stellar halo outside of the Local Group. The geometry of the halo is significantly flattened in the same sense as the disk, with a projected axis ratio of b/a~0.35+/-0.1. The total stellar mass of the halo is estimated to be M_halo ~2.5+/-1.5x10^9^M_{sun}_, or 6% of the total stellar mass of the galaxy, and has a projected radial dependence that follows a power law of index -2.8+/-0.6, corresponding to a three-dimensional power law index of ~-4. The total luminosity and profile shape that we measure for NGC 253 are somewhat larger and steeper than the equivalent values for the Milky Way and M31, but are well within the scatter of model predictions for the properties of stellar halos built up in a cosmological context. Structure within the halo is seen at a variety of scales: there is small kpc-scale density variation and a large shelf-like feature near the middle of the field. The techniques that have been developed will be essential for quantitatively comparing our upcoming larger sample of observed stellar halos to models of halo formation.
