The Astronomical Journal 9270 . THE ASTRONOMICAL JOURNAL VOLUME 90, NUMBER 6 JUNE 1985 90 VLA OBSERVATIONS OF 57 SOURCES IN CLUSTERS OF GALAXIES Christopher P. O’Dea National Radio Astronomy Observatory,a) Charlottesville, Virginia 22903 1985AJ Frazer N. Owen National Radio Astronomy Observatory, Socorro, New Mexico 87801 Received 20 September 1984; revised 10 January 1985 ABSTRACT VLA observations of 57 radio sources in the directions of clusters of galaxies are presented. The data include observations of 41 narrow-angle-tail (NAT) sources, nine wide-angle-tail (WAT) sources and seven sources with complex morphology. Twin-jet structure is found in ~75% of the NATs. These observations increase the number of NATs for which there are high-sensitivity (root-mean-square noise —0.1 mJy beam-1), high-resolution ( — T') maps by about a factor of 10. Contour plots of the sources are presented. Optical finding charts for 25 previously unidentified sources are given. Brief comments on the properties of the individual radio sources are made. Finally, the general characteristics and interesting features of the different subgroups of sources are summarized. I.

Received 0000 December 08; in original form 0000 December 08 ABSTRACT We have made the first detailed study of the high-frequency radio-source population in the local universe, using a sample of 202 radio sources from the Australia Telescope 20GHz (AT20G) survey identified with galaxies from the 6dF Galaxy Survey (6dFGS). The AT20G- 6dFGS galaxies have a median redshift of z=0.058 and span a wide range in radio luminosity, allowing us to make the first measurement of the local radio luminosity function at 20GHz. Our sample includes some classical FR-1 and FR-2 radio galaxies, but most of the AT20G-6dFGS galaxies host compact (FR-0) radio AGN which appear lack extended radio emission even at lower frequencies. Most of these FR-0 sources show no evidence for rela- tivistic beaming, and the FR-0 class appears to be a mixed population which includes young Compact Steep-Spectrum (CSS) and Gigahertz-Peaked Spectrum (GPS) radio galaxies.

For each galaxy, we obtain high- quality spectra in the wavelength range of 3650 to 5850 A˚ from the 246-fiber Mitchell integral-field spectrograph (IFS) at McDonald Observatory, covering a 10700 × 10700 field of view (often reaching 2 to 3 effective radii). We measure the 2-D spatial distri- bution of each galaxy's angular momentum (λ and fast or slow rotator status), velocity dispersion (σ), and higher-order non-Gaussian velocity features (Gauss-Hermite mo- ments h3 to h6).

  • Jet-Induced Star Formation in 3C 285 and Minkowski's Object⋆

Combes LERMA, Observatoire de Paris, CNRS UMR 8112, 61 avenue de l’Observatoire, 75014 Paris, France e-mail: [email protected] Received 5 September 2014 / Accepted 6 November 2014 ABSTRACT How efficiently star formation proceeds in galaxies is still an open question. Recent studies suggest that active galactic nucleus (AGN) can regulate the gas accretion and thus slow down star formation (negative feedback). However, evidence of AGN positive feedback has also been observed in a few radio galaxies (e.g. Centaurus A, Minkowski’s Object, 3C 285, and the higher redshift 4C 41.17). Here we present CO observations of 3C 285 and Minkowski’s Object, which are examples of jet-induced star formation. A spot (named 3C 285/09.6 in the present paper) aligned with the 3C 285 radio jet at a projected distance of ∼70 kpc from the galaxy centre shows star formation that is detected in optical emission. Minkowski’s Object is located along the jet of NGC 541 and also shows star formation. Knowing the distribution of molecular gas along the jets is a way to study the physical processes at play in the AGN interaction with the intergalactic medium. We observed CO lines in 3C 285, NGC 541, 3C 285/09.6, and Minkowski’s Object with the IRAM 30 m telescope. In the central galaxies, the spectra present a double-horn profile, typical of a rotation pattern, from which we are able to estimate the molecular gas density profile of the galaxy.

Draft version June 21, 2021 ABSTRACT We present near-infrared observations of 35 of the most massive early-type galaxies in the local universe. The observations were made using the infrared channel of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST ) Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) in the F110W (1.1 µm) filter. We measured surface brightness profiles and elliptical isophotal fit parameters from the nuclear regions out to a radius of ∼10 kpc in most cases. We find that 37% (13) of the galaxies in our sample have isophotal position angle rotations greater than 20◦ over the radial range imaged by WFC3/IR, which is often due to the presence of neighbors or multiple nuclei. Most galaxies in our sample are significantly rounder near the center than in the outer regions. This sample contains six fast rotators and 28 slow rotators. We find that all fast rotators are either disky or show no measurable deviation from purely elliptical isophotes. Among slow rotators, significantly disky and boxy galaxies occur with nearly equal frequency.

We have matched objects in the GALEX GR1 public release and the first IR1.1 internal release, with the RC3 early-type galaxies having a morphological type À5:5 T < À1:5, with mean error on T < 1:5 and mean error on (B À V )T < 0:05. After visual inspection of each match, we are left with 130 galaxies with reliable GALEX pipeline photometry in the far-UVand near-UV bands. This sample is divided into ellipticals (À5:5 T < À3:5) and lenticulars (À3:5 T < À1:5). After correction for Galactic extinction, the color-color diagrams FUV À NUV versus (B À V )Tc are plotted for the two subsamples.

  • 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.

We present a new sample of quarter-Jansky flat-spectrum radio sources selected to search for high- redshift quasars and to study the evolution of the flat-spectrum quasar population. The sample comprises 878 radio 5GHz ≥− ∝ α sources selected from the Parkes catalogues with spectral indices α2.7GHz 0.4 where Sν ν .Thesample covers all right ascensions and the declination range from −80◦. 0to+2◦. 5, excluding low galactic latitudes (| b |< 10◦) and the Magellanic Cloud regions. We have obtained improved radio source positions, firstly to reconfirm the majority of the existing identifications, and secondly, using digitized sky-survey data and deep B, Gunn-i and Gunn-z CCD-imaging, to find optical identifications for 223 previously-unidentified sources. We present the final catalogue of 878 flat-spectrum sources: 827 are compact radio sources identified with galaxies, quasars and BL Lac objects, 38 have either extended radio structure or are identified with Galactic objects (PN, HII or non-compact radio source), 4 are obscured by Galactic stars, and 9 (1 per cent of the total sample) remain unidentified.

Received 2020 October 5; in original form 2020 February 11 ABSTRACT Empirical correlations between the masses of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and properties of their host galaxies are well-established. Among these is the correlation with the flat rotation velocity of each galaxy measured either at a large radius in its rotation curve or via a spatially-integrated emission line width. We propose here the use of the de-projected integrated CO emission line width as an alternative tracer of this rotation velocity, that has already been shown useful for the Tully- Fisher (luminosity-rotation velocity) relation.
