General Catalog of Variable Stars (June 2022 Version)
Work aimed at compiling detailed catalogs of variable stars in the Galaxy, which has been carried out continuously by Moscow variable-star researchers since 1946 on behalf of the International Astronomical Union, has entered the stage of the publication of the 5th, completely electronic edition of the General Catalog of Variable Stars (GCVS). The GCVS 5.1 is freely accessible on the Internet. The authors recommend citing their paper as a unified reference to the 5th edition of the GCVS. The GCVS is the only reference source on all known variable stars. This version contains the electronically-readable version as distributed by the Sternberg Astronomical Institute and Institute of Astronomy (Russian Acad. Sci.), Moscow. After the publication of Volume III of the 4th edition of the GCVS, the subsequent Name-lists with numbers from 67 to 77 contained only names of variable stars in the GCVS systems, together with their coordinates and variability types. The authors actually started compiling the 5th edition of the GCVS ten years ago, with the 78th Name-list of Variable Stars, which provided (as did all subsequent Name-lists) complete GCVS information for each star (in addition to the variability types, ranges of brightness variations, epochs of brightness maxima or minima, periods, etc.). In all, the 78th-81st Name-lists contain more than 13300 variable stars. The complete revision of information on the coordinates of variable stars (see the Introduction section of the reference paper) was also a part of the transition to the 5th edition. The present electronic version of the GCVS5.1 is available from Sternberg Astronomical Institute (Lomonosov Moscow University) and Institute of Astronomy (Russian Academy of Sciences) at <a href="http://www.sai.msu.su/gcvs/gcvs/">http://www.sai.msu.su/gcvs/gcvs/</a> as a first release of the fifth GCVS edition. Information on the contents and principles of the fifth edition can be found in Samus et al. (2017), the official reference to GCVS 5.1. The GCVS 5.1 version contains data for individual variable objects discovered and named as variable stars by 2021 and located mainly in the Milky Way galaxy. The total number of named variable stars, not counting designated non-existing stars or stars subsequently identified with earlier-named variables, is now 58035. The stars of the GCVS 5.1 are stars of the GCVS fourth edition plus Name-lists Nos. 67-84. The stars from the Name-lists Nos.78-84 are presented in the complete GCVS format. Complete information for stars of the Name-lists Nos. 67-77 is so far provided in the first 20 constellations (Andromeda to Cepheus). In these constellations, the GCVS information has been completely revised with active use of new publications as well as observations retrieved by the GCVS compilers by data mining and used to determine new variability types and new light elements whenever possible. The authors are continuing this work and will introduce new data for the next constellations as soon as they are ready. This version of the GCVS catalog was last updated by the HEASARC in September 2022, based on the file at <a href="http://www.sai.msu.su/gcvs/gcvs/gcvs5/gcvs5.txt">http://www.sai.msu.su/gcvs/gcvs/gcvs5/gcvs5.txt</a>.

COSMOS Field VLBA Observations 1.4-GHz Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
This table contains the results of a project using wide-field Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations at 1.4 GHz of 2,865 known radio sources in the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) field, a field which has exceptional multi-wavelength coverage. The main objective of this study is to identify the active galactic nuclei (AGN) in this field. Wide-field VLBI observations were made of all known radio sources in the COSMOS field at 1.4 GHz using the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA). The authors also collected complementary multiwavelength information from the literature for the VLBA-detected sources.The combination of the number of sources, sensitivity, angular resolution and the area covered by this project are unprecedented. A catalog which contains the VLBI-detected sources is presented, the main purpose of which is to be used as an AGN catalog. the complementary multiwavelength (optical, infrared and X-ray) information of the VLBI-detected sources is also presented. The authors have detected 468 radio sources, expected to be AGN, with the VLBA. This is, to date, the largest sample assembled of VLBI-detected sources in the sub-mJy regime. They find a detection fraction of 20% +/- 1%, considering only those sources from the input catalog which were in principle detectable with the VLBA (2,361). As a function of the VLA flux density, the detection fraction is higher for higher flux densities, since at high flux densities a source could be detected even if the VLBI core accounts for a small percentage of the total flux density. As a function of redshift, the authors see no evolution of the detection fraction over the redshift range 0.5 < z < 3. In addition, they find that faint radio sources typically have a greater fraction of their radio luminosity in a compact core: ~70% of the sub-mJy sources detected with the VLBA have more than half of their total radio luminosity in a VLBI-scale component, whereas this is true for only ~30% of the sources that are brighter than 10 mJy. This suggests that fainter radio sources differ intrinsically from brighter ones. Across the entire sample, the authors find the predominant morphological classification of the host galaxies of the VLBA-detected sources to be early type (57%), although this varies with redshift and at z > 1.5 they find that spiral galaxies become the most prevalent (48%). The number of detections is high enough to study the faint radio population with statistically significant numbers. The authors demonstrate that wide-field VLBI observations, together with new calibration methods such as multi-source self-calibration and mosaicking, result in information which is difficult or impossible to obtain otherwise. This table contains 504 entries, including the 468 VLBA-detected sources and, for sources with multiple components, entries for the individual components. Among the detected sources, there are 452 single, 13 double, 2 triple and 1 quadruple source. Source entries have no suffix in their vlba_source_id, e.g., 'C3293', whereas component entries have a, b, c or d suffixes, e.g., 'C0090a' (and a value of 2 for the multi_cpt_flag parameter).

AAVSO International Variable Star Index
공공데이터포털
This database table contains Galactic stars known or suspected to be variable. It lists all stars that have an entry in the American Association of Variable Star Observers' (AAVSO) International Variable Star Index (VSX; http://www.aavso.org/vsx). It consisted initially of the General Catalogue of Variable Stars (GCVS) and the New Catalogue of Suspected Variables (NSV) and was then supplemented with a large number of variable star catalogues, as well as individual variable star discoveries or variables found in the literature. Effort has also been invested to update the entries with the latest information regarding position, type and period and to remove duplicates. The VSX database is being continually updated and maintained. For historical reasons some objects outside of the Galaxy have been included. This table was created by the HEASARC based on the CDS catalog B/vsx. The CDS updates it regularly, and this HEASARC version is accordingly updated within a week of such updates.

Globular Cluster Systems of Galaxies Catalog
공공데이터포털
This table contains a catalog of 422 galaxies with published measurements of their globular cluster (GC) populations. Of these, 248 are E galaxies, 93 are S0 galaxies, and 81 are spirals or irregulars. Among various correlations of the total number of GCs with other global galaxy properties, the authors find that the number of globular clusters NGC correlates well though nonlinearly with the dynamical mass of the galaxy bulge Mdyn = 4 sigma _e_2 Re/G, where sigmae is the central velocity dispersion and Re the effective radius of the galaxy light profile. In their paper, the authors also present updated versions of the GC specific frequency SN and specific mass SM versus host galaxy luminosity and baryonic mass. These graphs exhibit the previously known U-shape: highest SN or SM values occur for either dwarfs or supergiants, but in the mid-range of galaxy size (109 - 1010 Lsun) the GC numbers fall along a well-defined baseline value of SN ~= 1 or SM = 0.1, similar among all galaxy types. Along with other recent discussions, the authors suggest that this trend may represent the effects of feedback, which systematically inhibited early star formation at either very low or very high galaxy mass, but which had its minimum effect for intermediate masses. Their results strongly reinforce recent proposals that GC formation efficiency appears to be most nearly proportional to the galaxy halo mass Mhalo. The mean "absolute" efficiency ratio for GC formation that the authors derive from the catalog data is MGCS/Mhalo = 6 x 10-5. They suggest that the galaxy-to-galaxy scatter around this mean value may arise in part because of differences in the relative timing of GC formation versus field-star formation. Finally, they find that an excellent empirical predictor of total GC population for galaxies of all luminosities is NGC ~ (Re sigmae)1.3, a result consistent with fundamental plane scaling relations. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2014 based on an electronic version of Table 1 from the reference paper which was obtained from the ApJ web site. A duplicate entry for NGC 4417 was removed in June 2019. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
VLA-COSMOS Large Project 1.4-GHz Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
The international COSMOS (Cosmic Evolution) survey (Scoville et al. 2007, ApJS, 172, 1) is a panchromatic imaging and spectroscopic survey of a 1.4 degree by 1.4 degree field designed to probe galaxy and SMBH (supermassive black hole) evolution as a function of cosmic environment. One major aspect of the COSMOS survey is the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Treasury Project (Scoville et al. 2007, ApJS, 172, 38), entailing the largest ever allocation of HST telescope time. The equatorial location of the COSMOS field offers the critical advantage of allowing major observatories from both hemispheres to join forces in this endeavor. State-of-the-art imaging data at all wavelengths (X-ray to centimeter, plus large optical spectroscopic campaigns using the VLT VIMOS and the Magellan IMACS instruments (Lilly et al. 2007; Impey et al. 2007; Trump et al. 2007) have been or are currently being obtained for the COSMOS field. These make the COSMOS field an excellent resource for observational cosmology and galaxy evolution in the important redshift range z ~ 0.5 - 3, a time span covering ~ 75% of the lifetime of the universe. The VLA-COSMOS Large Project produced a catalog of 3643 radio sources found in the 2 square degrees COSMOS field at 1.4 GHz with a signal-to-noise threshold S/N >= 4.5. The observations in the VLA A and C configurations resulted in a resolution of 1.5" by 1.4" and a mean rms noise of ~ 10.5 µJy (µJy) beam-1 in the central 1 deg2, and of 15 uJy in the 2 deg2 field. Eighty radio sources are clearly extended consisting of multiple components, and most of them appear to be double-lobed radio galaxies. The astrometry of the catalog has been thoroughly tested, and the uncertainty in the relative and absolute astrometry are 130 and < 55 mas, respectively. This table was created by the HEASARC in September 2007 based on the electronic version of Table 3 from the reference paper which was obtained from the ApJ web site.

UV-Bright Quasar Survey (UVQS) DR1 Catalog
공공데이터포털
This table contains data from the first data release (DR1) from the UV-bright Quasar Survey (UVQS) for new z ~ 1 active galactic nuclei (AGN) across the sky. Using simple GALEX UV and WISE near-IR color selection criteria, the authors generated a list of 1,450 primary candidates with FUV < 18.5 mag, that is contained in the HEASARC table (entries with source_sample = 'P'). They obtained discovery spectra, primarily on 3m-class telescopes, for 1,040 of these candidates and confirmed 86% as AGN, with redshifts generally at z > 0.5. Including a small set of observed secondary candidates, the authors report the discovery of 217 AGN with GALEX FUV magnitudes < 18 mag that previously had no reported spectroscopic redshifts. These are excellent potential targets for UV spectroscopy before the end of the Hubble Space Telescope mission. The main data products of UVQS are publicly available through the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST). The authors have performed an all-sky survey for z ~ 1, FUV-bright quasars selected from GALEX and WISE photometry. In several of the observing runs, conditions were unexpectedly favorable and we exhausted the primary candidates at certain right ascension ranges. To fill the remaining observing time, they generated a secondary candidate list. This secondary set of 2,010 candidates is also contained in this HEASARC table (entries with source_sample = 'S'). The authors proceeded to obtain discovery-quality long-slit spectra (i.e., low-dispersion, large-wavelength coverage, modest signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of their UV-bright Quasar Survey (UVQS) candidates in one calendar year. The principal facilities were: (i) the dual Kast spectrometer on the 3m Shane telescope at the Lick Observatory; (ii) the Boller & Chivens (BCS) spectrometer on the Irenee du Pont 100-inch telescope at the Las Campanas Observatory; and (iii) the Calar Alto Faint Object Spectrograph on the CAHA 2.2-meter telescope at the Calar Alto Observatory (CAHA). They acquired an additional ~20 spectra on larger aperture telescopes (Keck/ESI, MMT/MBC, Magellan/MagE) during twilight or under poor observing conditions. Typical exposure times were limited to < ~200s, with adjustments for fainter sources or sub-optimal observing conditions. Table 3 in the reference paper provides a list of the details of the observations of these candidates. From the total candidates list of 3,460 objects, the authors measured high-quality redshifts (redshift quality flag values of 3 or greater) for 1,121 sources. They assumed that every source with a recessional velocity vr = z * c < 500 km s-1 was "Galactic", which they associate with the Galaxy and members of the Local Group. This included sources where the eigenspectra fits were poor yet a low vr was indisputable (e.g., stars). Many of these were assigned z = 0 exactly. The remainder of the UVQS sources were assumed to be extragalactic AGN, and the derived redshift information for these sources (which was given in Table 4 of the reference paper) has been incorporated into this HEASARC representation of UVQS. Finally, there were 93 sources with good-quality spectra for which we cannot the authors could not recover a secure redshift. The majority of these have been previously cataloged as blazars (or BL Lac objects). Table 6 in the reference paper lists the sample of these unknown or insecure redshift objects.

37-Month MAXI/GSC High Galactic-Latitude Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
This table contains the catalog of high Galactic-latitude (|b| > 10o) X-ray sources detected in the first 37 months of data accumulation of the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image/Gas Slit Camera (MAXI/GSC). To achieve the best sensitivity, the authors developed a background model of the GSC that well reproduced the data based on the detailed on-board calibration. Source detection was performed through image fits with a Poisson likelihood algorithm. The catalog contains 500 objects detected with significances >= 7 in the 4-10 keV band. The limiting sensitivity is ~7.5 x 10-12 erg cm-2 s-1 ( ~0.6 mCrab) in the 4-10 KeV band for 50% of the survey area, which is the highest ever achieved in an all-sky survey mission covering this energy band. In their paper, the authors summarize the statistical properties of the catalog and results from cross-matching with the Swift/BAT 70-month catalog (BAT70), the meta-catalog of X-ray detected clusters of galaxies (MCXC), and the MAXI/GSC 7-month catalog (GSC7). This catalog lists the source name (2MAXI), the position and its error, the detection significances and fluxes in the 4-10 keV and 3-4 keV bands, the hardness ratio, and the basic information on the likely counterpart (the latter available for 296 of the sources). This table was created by the HEASARC in September 2013 based on the electronic version of Table 1 from the reference paper which was obtained from The ApJS web site.

Milky Way Globular Clusters Catalog (December 2010 Version)
공공데이터포털
This is the Catalog of Parameters for Milky Way Globular Clusters (December 2010 Version) that was compiled by William E. Harris of McMaster University. This is the first update since 2003 and the biggest single revision since the original version of the catalog published in 1996. The list now contains a total of 157 objects classified as globular clusters. Major upgrades have been made especially to the cluster coordinates, metallicities, and structural profile parameters, and the list of parameters now also includes the central velocity dispersion. This table contains basic parameters on distances, velocities, metallicities, luminosities, colors, and dynamical parameters for over 150 objects that are regarded as globular clusters in the Milky Way galaxy. Please acknowledge the use of this catalog in any published work you derive from it. The proper reference to the literature is the published paper (Harris, W.E. 1996, AJ, 112, 1487) which briefly describes the setup of the catalog.
