The COSMOS2015 Catalog: Exploring the 1 < z < 6 Universe with Half a Million Galaxies
Aussel, H.; Le Floc'h, E.; Sanders, D. B. +34 more
We present the COSMOS201524 catalog, which contains precise photometric redshifts and stellar masses for more than half a million objects over the 2deg2 COSMOS field. Including new {{YJHK}}{{s}} images from the UltraVISTA-DR2 survey, Y-band images from Subaru/Hyper-Suprime-Cam, and infrared data from the Spitzer La…
The 3D-HST Survey: Hubble Space Telescope WFC3/G141 Grism Spectra, Redshifts, and Emission Line Measurements for ~ 100,000 Galaxies
Maseda, Michael V.; van Dokkum, Pieter G.; Franx, Marijn +27 more
We present reduced data and data products from the 3D-HST survey, a 248-orbit HST Treasury program. The survey obtained WFC3 G141 grism spectroscopy in four of the five CANDELS fields: AEGIS, COSMOS, GOODS-S, and UDS, along with WFC3 H 140 imaging, parallel ACS G800L spectroscopy, and parallel I 814 imaging. In a previous pap…
Development of the Model of Galactic Interstellar Emission for Standard Point-source Analysis of Fermi Large Area Telescope Data
Troja, E.; Caraveo, P. A.; Mirabal, N. +131 more
Most of the celestial γ rays detected by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope originate from the interstellar medium when energetic cosmic rays interact with interstellar nucleons and photons. Conventional point-source and extended-source studies rely on the modeling of this diffuse emission for accurate char…
Spectral Properties of Cool Stars: Extended Abundance Analysis of 1,617 Planet-search Stars
Valenti, Jeff A.; Fischer, Debra A.; Brewer, John M. +1 more
We present a catalog of uniformly determined stellar properties and abundances for 1,617 F, G, and K stars using an automated spectral synthesis modeling procedure. All stars were observed using the HIRES spectrograph at Keck Observatory. Our procedure used a single line list to fit model spectra to observations of all stars to determine effective…
The RedMaPPer Galaxy Cluster Catalog From DES Science Verification Data
Benoit-Lévy, A.; Nichol, R. C.; D'Andrea, C. B. +87 more
We describe updates to the redMaPPer algorithm, a photometric red-sequence cluster finder specifically designed for large photometric surveys. The updated algorithm is applied to 150 {{deg}}2 of Science Verification (SV) data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES), and to the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) DR8 photometric data set. The DES …
WATCHDOG: A Comprehensive All-sky Database of Galactic Black Hole X-ray Binaries
Heinke, C. O.; Sivakoff, G. R.; Gladstone, J. C. +1 more
With the advent of more sensitive all-sky instruments, the transient universe is being probed in greater depth than ever before. Taking advantage of available resources, we have established a comprehensive database of black hole (and black hole candidate) X-ray binary (BHXB) activity between 1996 and 2015 as revealed by all-sky instruments, scanni…
The Third Fermi GBM Gamma-Ray Burst Catalog: The First Six Years
Collazzi, Andrew C.; Preece, Robert D.; Kouveliotou, Chryssa +30 more
Since its launch in 2008, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) has triggered and located on average approximately two γ-ray bursts (GRBs) every three days. Here, we present the third of a series of catalogs of GRBs detected by GBM, extending the second catalog by two more years through the middle of 2014 July. The resulting list includes 1405 t…
The Herschel Orion Protostar Survey: Spectral Energy Distributions and Fits Using a Grid of Protostellar Models
Manoj, P.; Megeath, S. T.; Watson, D. M. +12 more
We present key results from the Herschel Orion Protostar Survey: spectral energy distributions (SEDs) and model fits of 330 young stellar objects, predominantly protostars, in the Orion molecular clouds. This is the largest sample of protostars studied in a single, nearby star formation complex. With near-infrared photometry from 2MASS, mid- and f…
Catalog of Ultra-diffuse Galaxies in the Coma Clusters from Subaru Imaging Data
Koda, Jin; Komiyama, Yutaka; Yagi, Masafumi +1 more
We present a catalog of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in the Coma cluster. UDGs are a subset of low surface brightness (SB) galaxies with very large effective radii defined by van Dokkum et al. We surveyed the Subaru data archive for deep Suprime-Cam/Subaru R-band images, and used data covering the 1.°7 × 2.°7 region of the Coma cluster. The data …
The VLT LEGA-C Spectroscopic Survey: The Physics of Galaxies at a Lookback Time of 7 Gyr
Wolf, C.; Brammer, G.; Rix, H. -W. +17 more
The Large Early Galaxy Census (LEGA-C) is a Public Spectroscopic Survey of ∼3200 K-band selected galaxies at redshifts z = 0.6 - 1.0 with stellar masses {M}*\gt {10}10\quad {M}⊙ , conducted with VIMOS on ESO’s Very Large Telescope. The survey is embedded in the COSMOS field (R.A. = 10h00; {decl}. = +2 {deg}). The 2…
