This sample includes galaxies which are active (low-ionization nuclear emission-line regions [LINER] and Seyfert) and quiescent (H II galaxies and absorption line galaxies, ALGs), which are reclassified based upon revised emission-line diagrams.

    Submitted to Astrophysical Journal A Preprint typeset using L TEX style emulateapj v. 04/03/99 ULTRALUMINOUS X-RAY SOURCE CORRELATIONS WITH STAR-FORMING REGIONS Douglas A. Swartz1 Allyn F. Tennant2, and Roberto Soria3 Submitted to Astrophysical Journal ABSTRACT Maps of low-inclination nearby galaxies in Sloan Digitized Sky Survey u − g, g − r and r − i colors are used to determine whether Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are predominantly associated with star-forming regions of their host galaxies. An empirical selection criterion is derived from colors of H ii regions in M 81 and M 101 that differentiates between the young, blue stellar component and the older disk and bulge population. This criterion is applied to a sample of 58 galaxies of Hubble type S0 and later and verified through an application of Fisher’s linear discriminant analysis. It is found that 60% (49%) of ULXs in optically-bright environments are within regions blueward of their host galaxy’s H ii regions compared to only 27% (0%) of a control sample according to the empirical (Fisher) criterion. This is an excess of 3σ above the 32% (27%) expected if the ULXs were randomly distributed within their galactic hosts. This indicates a ULX preference for young, ∼<10 Myr, OB associations. However, none of the ULX environments have the morphology and optical brightness suggestive of a massive young super star cluster though several are in extended or crowded star-forming (blue) environments that may contain clusters unresolved by Sloan imaging. Ten of the 12 ULX candidates with estimated X-ray luminosities in excess of 3×1039 ergs s−1 are equally divided among the group of ULX environments redward of H ii regions and the group of optically faint regions.

The MIPS data can be used to extend the photometry to wave bands that are not observed in these Her- schel surveys and to check the photometry in cases where Herschel performs observations at the same wavelengths. Additionally, we measured globally-integrated 24-160 µm flux den- sities for the galaxies in the sample that can be used for the construction of spectral energy distributions. Using MIPS photometry published by other references, we have confirmed that we are obtaining accurate photometry for these galaxies.

  • Making a Sky Atlas
    Appendix A Making a Sky Atlas Although a number of very advanced sky atlases are now available in print, none is likely to be ideal for any given task. Published atlases will probably have too few or too many guide stars, too few or too many deep-sky objects plotted in them, wrong- size charts, etc. I found that with MegaStar I could design and make, specifically for my survey, a “just right” personalized atlas. My atlas consists of 108 charts, each about twenty square degrees in size, with guide stars down to magnitude 8.9. I used only the northernmost 78 charts, since I observed the sky only down to –35°. On the charts I plotted only the objects I wanted to observe. In addition I made enlargements of small, overcrowded areas (“quad charts”) as well as separate large-scale charts for the Virgo Galaxy Cluster, the latter with guide stars down to magnitude 11.4. I put the charts in plastic sheet protectors in a three-ring binder, taking them out and plac- ing them on my telescope mount’s clipboard as needed. To find an object I would use the 35 mm finder (except in the Virgo Cluster, where I used the 60 mm as the finder) to point the ensemble of telescopes at the indicated spot among the guide stars. If the object was not seen in the 35 mm, as it usually was not, I would then look in the larger telescopes. If the object was not immediately visible even in the primary telescope – a not uncommon occur- rence due to inexact initial pointing – I would then scan around for it.

  • A Complete Redshift Survey to the Zwicky Catalog Limit in a 2-Hour by 15-Degree Region Around 3C
    A Complete Redshift Survey to the Zwicky Catalog Limit in a 2h × 15◦ Region Around 3C 273 Norman A. Grogin, Margaret J. Geller, and John P. Huchra Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, 60 Garden Street, Cambridge, MA 02138 E-mail: ngrogin, mgeller, [email protected] ABSTRACT We compile 1113 redshifts (648 new measurements, 465 from the literature) for Zwicky catalogue galaxies in the region (−3◦.5 ≤ δ ≤ 8◦.5, 11h.5 ≤ α ≤ 13h.5). We include redshifts for 114 component objects in 78 Zwicky catalogue multiplets. The redshift survey in this region is 99.5% complete to the Zwicky catalogue limit, mZw = 15.7. It is 99.9% complete to mZw = 15.5, the CfA Redshift Survey (CfA2) magnitude limit. The survey region is adjacent to the northern portion of CfA2, overlaps the northernmost slice of the Las Campanas Redshift Survey, includes the southern extent of the Virgo Cluster, and is roughly centered on the QSO 3C 273. As in other portions of the Zwicky catalogue, bright and faint galaxies trace the same large-scale structure. Subject headings: cosmology: observations — galaxies: distances and redshifts — galaxies: interactions 1. Introduction arXiv:astro-ph/9807067v1 7 Jul 1998 The Center for Astrophysics Redshift Survey (hereafter CfA2, Geller & Huchra 1989) of galaxies from Zwicky’s Catalogue of Galaxies and Clusters of Galaxies (Zwicky et al. 1961–1968, hereafter CGCG) still remains one of the best re- sources for the study of the nearby galaxy distribution. In a recent paper (Gro- gin & Geller 1998), we used CfA2 to investigate the connection between local −1 (cz ∼< 10000 km s ) Lyman-alpha absorption systems observed with HST (Bah- call et al.

  • Tidal Streams Around Galaxies in the SDSS DR7 Archive⋆
    A&A 536, A66 (2011) Astronomy DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/201116716 & c ESO 2011 Astrophysics Tidal streams around galaxies in the SDSS DR7 archive I. First results A. Miskolczi, D. J. Bomans, and R.-J. Dettmar Astronomical Institute of the Ruhr-University Bochum (AIRUB), Universitätsstrasse 150, 44801 Bochum, Germany e-mail: [Miskolczi;Bomans;Dettmar]@astro.rub.de Received 14 February 2011 / Accepted 12 September 2011 ABSTRACT Context. Models of hierarchical structure formation predict the accretion of smaller satellite galaxies onto more massive systems and this process should be accompanied by a disintegration of the smaller companions visible, e.g., in tidal streams. Aims. In order to verify and quantify this scenario we have developed a search strategy for low surface brightness tidal structures around a sample of 474 galaxies using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR7 archive. Methods. Calibrated images taken from the SDSS archive were processed in an automated manner and visually inspected for possible tidal streams. Results. We were able to extract structures at surface brightness levels ranging from ∼24 down to 28 mag arcsec−2. A significant number of tidal streams was found and measured. Their apparent length varies as they seem to be in different stages of accretion. Conclusions. At least 6% of the galaxies show distinct stream like features, a total of 19% show faint features. Several individual cases are described and discussed. Key words. galaxies: evolution – galaxies: interactions – galaxies: halos – galaxies: photometry – galaxies: stellar content – techniques: image processing 1. Introduction coincidence. Shang et al.
