- Description:
- We present 114 trigonometric parallaxes for 107 nearby white dwarf (WD) systems from both the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory Parallax Investigation (CTIOPI) and the U. S. Naval Observatory Flagstaff Station (NOFS) parallax programs. Of these, 76 parallaxes for 69 systems were measured by the CTIOPI program and 38 parallaxes for as many systems were measured by the NOFS program. A total of 50 systems are confirmed to be within the 25-pc horizon of interest. Coupled with a spectroscopic confirmation of a common proper-motion companion to a Hipparcos star within 25pc as well as confirmation parallax determinations for two WD systems included in the recently released Tycho Gaia Astrometric Solution catalog, we add 53 new systems to the 25-pc WD sample-a 42% increase. Our sample presented here includes four strong candidate halo systems, a new metal-rich DAZ WD, a confirmation of a recently discovered nearby short-period (P=2.85hr) double degenerate, a WD with a new astrometric perturbation (long period, unconstrained with our data), and a new triple system where the WD companion main-sequence star has an astrometric perturbation (P~1.6year).

- Description:
- SONYC -Substellar Objects in Nearby Young Clusters- is a survey program to investigate the frequency and properties of substellar objects in nearby star-forming regions. We present a new imaging and spectroscopic survey conducted in the young (~1 Myr), nearby (~200 pc) star-forming region Lupus 3. Deep optical and near-infrared images were obtained with MOSAIC-II and NEWFIRM at the CTIO 4 m telescope, covering ~1.4 deg^2^ on the sky. The i-band completeness limit of 20.3 mag is equivalent to 0.009-0.02 M_{sun}_, for A_V_<=5. Photometry and 11-12 yr baseline proper motions were used to select candidate low-mass members of Lupus 3. We performed a spectroscopic follow-up of 123 candidates, using VIMOS at the Very Large Telescope, and we identify 7 probable members, among which 4 have spectral type later than M6.0 and T_eff_<=3000 K, i.e., are probably substellar in nature. Two of the new probable members of Lupus 3 appear underluminous for their spectral class and exhibit emission line spectrum with strong H_{alpha}_ or forbidden lines associated with active accretion. We derive a relation between the spectral type and effective temperature: T_eff_=(4120+/-175)-(172+/-26)xSpT, where SpT refers to the M spectral subtype between 1 and 9. Combining our results with the previous works on Lupus 3, we show that the spectral type distribution is consistent with that in other star-forming regions, as well as the derived star-to-brown dwarf ratio of 2.0-3.3. We compile a census of all spectroscopically confirmed low-mass members with spectral type M0 or later.

- Description:
- SONYC - Substellar Objects in Nearby Young Clusters - is a program to investigate the frequency and properties of young substellar objects with masses down to a few times that of Jupiter. In a series of papers we have obtained follow-up spectroscopy for a large number of candidate very low mass (VLM) members of the ~1Myr old cluster NGC1333 in the Perseus star forming region. For more details on the survey, see the associated paper (Scholz et al., 2012ApJ...744....6S). Here we present a census of spectroscopically confirmed very low mass objects in NGC1333. We include all objects with spectral type of M5 or later and/or effective temperature of 3200K or cooler. In total, there are now 58 objects which fulfill these criteria. In three tables we list photometric and spectroscopic properties for our own sample as well as for objects listed in the literature. In addition, we also include three tables of the objects that have been rejected as very low mass cluster members based on our spectroscopic follow-up. Finally, we attach the two photometric candidate lists from which the spectroscopic sample was extracted, see Scholz et al. (2012ApJ...756...24S) for more details on these catalogues.

- Description:
- SONYC - Substellar Objects in Nearby Young Clusters - is a survey program to investigate the frequency and properties of substellar objects with masses down to a few times that of Jupiter in nearby star-forming regions. In two papers of the SONYC series we have obtained follow-up spectroscopy for a large number of candidate very low ma ss (VLM) members of the ~1Myr old cluster rho Ophiuchi. For more details on the survey, see the associated paper (Muzic et al., 2012ApJ...744..134M). Here we publish the two catalogues of photometric candidate members from which the spectroscopic samples were extracted (see Geers et al. 2011ApJ...726...23G and Muzic et al. 2012ApJ...744..134M for more details on these catalogues). We include a table containing all the spectroscopically confirmed VLM members of the cluster observed within the SONYC campaign. We also attach and a table with all the objects that have been rejected as VLM members based on our spectroscopic follow-up. The majority of these latter objects are expected to be background contaminants, although some of them could also be embedded cluster members with spectral types earlier than M.

- Description:
- The results of speckle interferometric observations at the 4.1 m Southern Astrophysical Research Telescope in 2016 and 2017 are given, totaling 2483 measurements of 1570 resolved pairs and 609 non-resolutions. We describe briefly recent changes in the instrument and observing method and quantify the accuracy of the pixel scale and position angle calibration. Comments are given on 44 pairs resolved here for the first time. The orbital motion of the newly resolved subsystem BU 83 Aa,Ab roughly agrees with its 36-year astrometric orbit proposed by J. Dommanget. Most Tycho binaries examined here turned out to be spurious.

- Description:
- The present catalogue is the second one of the four catalogues published according to programme of Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory of a massive two-dimensional MK classification of stars in 115 kapteyn Select Areas (KA) of Northen Sky. The catalogue lists the spectral types and luminosity classes for 5888 stars in 24 Kapteyn areas 44-67 through the declination circle of 30{deg}. The catalogue is compiled on the basis of the spectral data obtained with the 70-cm meniscus telescope of Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory using the 8{deg} objective prism (dispersion 166{AA}/mm near H{gamma}; in the short-wave region, the spectrum extends up to 3500{AA}). The field of the meniscus telescope is 4.5{deg}x4.5{deg}. The photo material is taken on Kodak IIa-O, hyper-sensitized Kodak IIIa-J and in order to detect also H{alpha} emission stars and M, S, C type stars in the surveyed Kapteyn areas (KA), hyper-sensitized Kodak IIIa-F plates were also taken. A limiting apparent magnitude in V for stars in question is 12.5 photographic mag. and for M ones - 15.0mag. The catalogue contains 94 stars with peculiarities in the spectrum, in particular Ap, Am, BaII and composite spectrum stars, as well as 9 emission objects, 381 M-type, 16 C and a few S and WC stars. The data for all KA's are uniform not only in the sense of classification accuracy (the whole classification is done by one person - the author of the present catalogue), but also in the sense of penetration. The errors of our determinations are: +/-0.6 for spectral subtype and+/-0.5 for luminosity class. The stars in the KA's are arranged in the Catalogue by increasing right ascension. The stars are numbered according to zones of 1{deg} in declination. The printed catalogue is provided with suitable stellar charts for separate KA's reproduced from the Lick Catalogue. The reference system on the charts refers to 1950 epoch and it is plotted according to the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) catalogue.

- Description:
- The present catalogue is the last one of the four catalogues published according to programme of Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory of a massive two-dimensional MK classification of stars in 115 kapteyn Select Areas (KA) of Northen Sky. The catalogue lists the spectral types and luminosity classes for 3880 stars in 23 Kapteyn areas 92-115 through the declination circle of 0{deg}. KA 95 was skipped because of poor quality of observational data. The catalogue is compiled on the basis of the spectral data obtained with the 70-cm meniscus telescope of Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory using the 8{deg} objective prism (dispersion 166{AA}/mm near H{gamma}; in the short-wave region, the spectrum extends up to 3500{AA}).

- Description:
- The present catalogue is compiled on the basis of the spectral data obtained with the 70-cm meniscus telescope of Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory using the 8{deg} objective prism (dispersion 166{AA}/mm near H{gamma}; in the short-wave region, the spectrum extends up to 3500{AA}). We have confined ourselves to relatively bright stars (11.5 photographic mag.), whose spectra were obtained by us on Kodak IIa-O plates. The spectra were broadened up to 0.4mm for an exposure of 20min. We succeeded to carry out a quite homogeneous mass two-dimensional MK classification, separating also peculiar stars. In order to detect also H{alpha} emission stars and M, S, C type stars in the surveyed Kapteyn areas (KA), panchromatic plates were also taken. The catalogue contains 173 stars with peculiarities in the spectrum, in particular Ap, Am, BaII and composite spectrum stars, as well as 30 Be, 800 M-type, and a few S, R, N and WR stars. The data for all KA's are uniform not only in the sense of classification accuracy (the whole classification is done by one person - the author of the present catalogue), but also in the sense of penetration: the areas were photographed both on Kodak IIa-O and ORWO 2P-3 plates with the same maximum exposure for each plate and they all cover areas of 4.5x4.5{deg}. The errors of our determinations are: +/-0.6 for spectral subtype and +/-0.5 for luminosity class. The stars in the KA's are arranged in the Catalogue by increasing right ascension. The stars are numbered according to zones of 1{deg} in declination. The printed catalogue is provided with suitable stellar charts for separate KA's reproduced from the Lick Catalogue. The reference system on the charts refers to 1950 epoch and it is plotted according to the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) catalogue.
