Title:
Extended Hipparcos Compilation (XHIP)
Short Name:
V/137D
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Extended Hipparcos Compilation (XHIP) cross-references the New Hipparcos Reduction (HIP2, Cat. I/311) with relatable data from a broad survey of presently available sources. The resulting collection uniquely assigns 116,096 spectral classifications, 46,392 radial velocities, and 19,097 iron abundances [Fe/H] to Hipparcos stars. Stellar classifications from SIMBAD and indications of multiplicity from either CCDM (Cat. I/274) or WDS (Cat. B/wds) are provided. Parameters for solar encounters and Galactic orbits are calculated for a subset of stars that can be made kinematically complete. Memberships in open clusters and stellar associations are assigned. We also provide stellar ages from The Geneva-Copenhagen survey of the Solar neighbourhood III (Cat. V/130), identifications of exoplanet host stars, and supplemental photometry from 2MASS (Cat. II/246) and SIMBAD.
92. Extinction law in the Cep OB3b young cluster

Title:
Extinction law in the Cep OB3b young cluster
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We determine the extinction law through Cep OB3b, a young cluster of 3000 stars undergoing gas dispersal. The extinction is measured toward 76 background K giants identified with MMT/Hectospec spectra. Color excess ratios were determined toward each of the giants using V and R photometry from the literature, g, r, i, and z photometry from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and J, H, and K_s_ photometry from the Two Micron All Sky Survey. These color excess ratios were then used to construct the extinction law through the dusty material associated with Cep OB3b. The extinction law through Cep OB3b is intermediate between the R_V_=3.1 and R_V_=5 laws commonly used for the diffuse atomic interstellar medium and dense molecular clouds, respectively. The dependence of the extinction law on line-of-sight A_V_ is investigated and we find the extinction law becomes shallower for regions with A_V_>2.5 mag. We speculate that the intermediate dust law results from dust processing during the dispersal of the molecular cloud by the cluster.
93. FBS 11th list of late-type stars
ID:

Title:
FBS 11th list of late-type stars
Short Name:
J/other/Ap/44.88
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The eleventh list of faint late M and carbon type stars detected on the plates of the First Byurakan Spectral Survey in zone -7{deg}<={delta}<=-3{deg} and covering about 1000 square degrees is presented. From 126 detected stars, 88 are newly discovered objects: they are 6 carbon stars, 8 carbon star candidates, and 74 M-type stars; among the latter 38 (26 PSC + 12 FSC) are unclassified IRAS sources, and one object is an unclassified ROSAT source. Distances to the 6 newly discovered early-type carbon stars are estimated. Equatorial coordinates, red magnitudes, and spectral classes determined from the Palomar E-charts are provided. The lack of optical counterparts on Palomar O and E maps for two detected late M-type stars indicates a large variability in brightnesses of these objects (amplitude not smaller than 7.0 magnitude).

95. F2-G5 Stars in a North Galactic Pole Region
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/III/9A
Title:
F2-G5 Stars in a North Galactic Pole Region
Short Name:
III/9A
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The catalog is an objective-prism survey for stars of spectral classes F2 to G5 in a region of high galactic latitude. The catalog contains 1127 stars and is complete to a limiting photographic magnitude of 12.5. The photographic plates used permit a separation of the stars into narrow and well-defined spectral classes. The spectral classification of the stars in the catalog is based on the Yerkes MK system. The catalog is subdivided into one-degree declination zones as are the DM catalogs. The degree zones are based on 1855 coordinates. The catalog includes sequence numbers of the stars, BD and HD numbers, positions (B1950), B magnitudes, spectral types, and remarks.
96. First brown dwarfs discovered by WISE

Title:
First brown dwarfs discovered by WISE
Short Name:
J/ApJS/197/19
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present ground-based spectroscopic verification of 6 Y dwarfs (see also Cushing et al., 2011ApJ...743...50C), 89 T dwarfs, 8 L dwarfs, and 1 M dwarf identified by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). Eighty of these are cold brown dwarfs with spectral types >=T6, six of which have been announced earlier by Mainzer et al. (2011ApJ...726...30M) and Burgasser et al. (2011ApJ...735..116B). We present color-color and color-type diagrams showing the locus of M, L, T, and Y dwarfs in WISE color space. Near-infrared and, in a few cases, optical spectra are presented for these discoveries. Near-infrared classifications as late as early Y are presented and objects with peculiar spectra are discussed. Using these new discoveries, we are also able to extend the optical T dwarf classification scheme from T8 to T9. After deriving an absolute WISE 4.6um (W2) magnitude versus spectral type relation, we estimate spectrophotometric distances to our discoveries. We also use available astrometric measurements to provide preliminary trigonometric parallaxes to four of our discoveries, which have types of L9 pec (red), T8, T9, and Y0; all of these lie within 10pc of the Sun. The Y0 dwarf, WISE 1541-2250, is the closest at 2.8^+1.3^_-0.6_pc; if this 2.8pc value persists after continued monitoring, WISE 1541-2250 will become the seventh closest stellar system to the Sun. Another 10 objects, with types between T6 and >Y0, have spectrophotometric distance estimates also placing them within 10pc. The closest of these, the T6 dwarf WISE 1506+7027, is believed to fall at a distance of ~4.9pc. WISE multi-epoch positions supplemented with positional info primarily from the Spitzer/Infrared Array Camera allow us to calculate proper motions and tangential velocities for roughly one-half of the new discoveries.
97. First Byurakan Survey Late Type Stars catalog

Title:
First Byurakan Survey Late Type Stars catalog
Short Name:
III/246
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The First Byurakan Survey (FBS), also known as the Markarian survey, covers about 17000 sq. deg. It has been used by Markarian and his collaborators to search for UV excess galaxies (see Cat. VII/172), by Abrahamyan and his collaborators to search for late type stars and UV excess or emission line point sources (stars and starlike objects). The identification, classification, and investigation of late type stars and blue stellar objects constitutes the second part of the First Byurakan Survey and is a natural continuation of it. For this second program, at the present time, a catalogue of 1103 blue objects has been built (see Cat. II/223). In a series of 14 papers, referenced in the "References" section below, have been published lists of 1000 late M type and carbon stars, selected on the FBS plates. We have revised and updated this 14 lists with the new data from recently published optical and infrared catalogs to give access to all available data. As a result, the catalog of the First Byurakan Survey (FBS) Late Type Stars, was compiled. In this catalogue are presented high accurate coordinates, proper motions, spectral, photometric and infrared dates about of 995 FBS late M type and carbon stars. Are given cross-identifications of FBS late type stars with their counterparts from the most popular catalogs (2MASS, USNO-B1, NOMAD, UCAC2, GCVS4.2, NSVS, ASAS, IRAS PS and IRAS FS). On the base of 2MASS (J-K) color indices were determined a luminosity classes for 988 of them. For the 55 stars were determined a spectral classes, and for the another 129 were determined a spectral subclasses on the base of DFBS (http://byurakan.phys.uniroma1.it/) These data were not presented in original lists.
98. First Byurakan Survey of Late-Type Stars - v2
ID:

Title:
First Byurakan Survey of Late-Type Stars - v2
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/489/2030
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
A total of 18 lists of the First Byurakan Survey of Late-Type Stars (FBS LTS) were published between 1990 and 2016. The stars were found on FBS low-dispersion spectroscopic plates. A systematic search and selection were carried out on a surface of ~16000deg^2^ on almost the whole area of the FBS. As a result, the "Revised and Updated Catalogue of the First Byurakan Survey of Late-Type Stars" was generated (FBS LTS v1; see Cat. III/266 -- 1045 objects). We present the second version of the catalogue of FBS LTS with new data (FBS LTS v2), comprising 1471 objects. It is a homogeneous and complete data base for high-Galactic-latitude, late-type stars, including M and C types. Since 2007, all FBS low-resolution spectral plates have been digitized. All digitized FBS (DFBS) spectral plates have been analysed with FITSVIEW and SAO IMAGE DS9, and numerous relatively faint LTSs have been discovered. We have performed cross-correlations with DFBS, USNO-B1.0, 2MASS, AllWISE, IRAS PSC/FSC, AKARI, ROSAT BSC/FSC, GCVS, SDSS and added updated SIMBAD data. For numerous new detected objects, we present accurate DSS2 positions, approximate spectral subtypes refined from the DFBS low-dispersion spectra, luminosity classes estimated from 2MASS colours, and available proper motions for 1471 FBS LTSs. The Revised and Updated Catalogue v2 lists a large number of completely new objects, which promises to extend very significantly the census of M giants, faint N-type asymptotic giant branch carbon stars, CH-type carbon giants at high Galactic latitudes, and M dwarfs in the Solar vicinity up to 16.0-17.0mag in the visual. Some important data from Gaia DR2 and supplementary spectra from the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory 2.6m and LAMOST telescopes are presented.
99. 8695 flares from 1228 stars in TESS sectors 1 & 2
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AJ/159/60
Title:
8695 flares from 1228 stars in TESS sectors 1 & 2
Short Name:
J/AJ/159/60
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We perform a study of stellar flares for the 24809 stars observed with 2 minute cadence during the first two months of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission. Flares may erode exoplanets' atmospheres and impact their habitability, but might also trigger the genesis of life around small stars. TESS provides a new sample of bright dwarf stars in our galactic neighborhood, collecting data for thousands of M dwarfs that might host habitable exoplanets. Here, we use an automated search for flares accompanied by visual inspection. Then, our public allesfitter code robustly selects the appropriate model for potentially complex flares via Bayesian evidence. We identify 1228 flaring stars, 673 of which are M dwarfs. Among 8695 flares in total, the largest superflare increased the stellar brightness by a factor of 16.1. Bolometric flare energies range from 10^31.0^ to 10^36.9^erg, with a median of 10^33.1^erg. Furthermore, we study the flare rate and energy as a function of stellar type and rotation period. We solidify past findings that fast rotating M dwarfs are the most likely to flare and that their flare amplitude is independent of the rotation period. Finally, we link our results to criteria for prebiotic chemistry, atmospheric loss through coronal mass ejections, and ozone sterilization. Four of our flaring M dwarfs host exoplanet candidates alerted on by TESS, for which we discuss how these effects can impact life. With upcoming TESS data releases, our flare analysis can be expanded to almost all bright small stars, aiding in defining criteria for exoplanet habitability.

Title:
Fundamental parameters of 87 stars from the NPOI
Short Name:
J/AJ/155/30
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the fundamental properties of 87 stars based on angular diameter measurements from the Navy Precision Optical Interferometer, 36 of which have not been measured previously using interferometry. Our sample consists of 5 dwarfs, 3 subgiants, 69 giants, 3 bright giants, and 7 supergiants, and span a wide range of spectral classes from B to M. We combined our angular diameters with photometric and distance information from the literature to determine each star's physical radius, effective temperature, bolometric flux, luminosity, mass, and age.
