2MASS-WFC3/IR across H-R Diagram, Synthetic Phot.
Near-infrared bandpasses on spaceborne observatories diverge from their ground-based counterparts as they are free of atmospheric telluric absorption. Available transformations... -
He II emission from Wolf-Rayet stars in MW & LMC
We calibrated a technique to measure dust attenuation in star-forming galaxies. The technique utilizes the stellar-wind lines in Wolf-Rayet stars, which are widely observed in... -
IR photometry of field RR Lyrae variable stars
We present multi-epoch infrared photometry in the K_s_-band for 74 bright RR Lyrae variable stars tied directly to the Two-Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) photometric system. We... -
Luminous and variable stars in NGC 2403 and M81
We present the results of spectroscopy and multi-wavelength photometry of luminous and variable star candidates in the nearby spiral galaxies NGC 2403 and M81. We discuss... -
Galactic outer disk: a field toward Tombaugh 1
We employ optical photometry and high-resolution spectroscopy to study a field toward the open cluster Tombaugh 1, where we identify a complex population mixture that we... -
RR Lyrae stars from the PS1 3{pi} survey
RR Lyrae stars may be the best practical tracers of Galactic halo (sub-)structure and kinematics. The PanSTARRS1 (PS1) 3{pi} survey offers multi-band, multi-epoch, precise... -
LAMOST survey of star clusters in M31. II.
We select from Paper I a sample of 306 massive star clusters observed with the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fibre Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) in the vicinity fields of M31... -
Pan-Pacific Planet Search (PPPS). V. 164 stars
We present spectroscopic stellar parameters for the complete target list of 164 evolved stars from the Pan-Pacific Planet Search, a five-year radial velocity campaign using the... -
Bolometric fluxes of eclipsing binaries in Tycho-2
We present fits to the broadband photometric spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of 158 eclipsing binaries (EBs) in the Tycho-2 catalog. These EBs were selected because they... -
Globular and open clusters observed by SDSS/SEGUE
We present griz observations for the clusters M92, M13 and NGC 6791 and gr photometry for M71, Be 29 and NGC 7789. In addition we present new membership identifications for all... -
UBVRIz light curves of 51 Type II supernovae
We present a compilation of UBVRIz light curves of 51 type II supernovae discovered during the course of four different surveys during 1986-2003: the Cerro Tololo Supernova... -
Abundances in the local region. I. G and K giants
Parameters and abundances for 1133 stars of spectral types F, G, and K of luminosity class III have been derived. In terms of stellar parameters, the primary point of interest... -
Eclipse timings of 27 eclipsing binaries in the SMC
We present the periods of apsidal motion for 27 early-type eclipsing binaries with high eccentricity located in the Small Magellanic Cloud. New times of minima were derived from... -
Reddening of ~35000 quasars from SDSS
We explore the extinction/reddening of ~35000 uniformly selected quasars with 0<z{<=}5.3 in order to better understand their intrinsic optical/ultraviolet (UV) spectral... -
Spectroscopy of W UMa-type binary stars
This study is the first attempt to determine the metallicities of W UMa-type binary stars using spectroscopy. We analyzed about 4500 spectra collected at the David Dunlap... -
BV photometry of dwarf Cepheids in Carina
We report the detection of 388 pulsating variable stars (and some additional miscellaneous variables) in the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy over an area covering the full... -
Reddening curve of IRAS 14026+4341
A fraction of the heavily reddened quasars require a reddening curve that is even steeper than that of the Small Magellanic Cloud. In this paper, we thoroughly characterize the... -
Abundance in stars of the outer galactic disk. IV.
We present radial velocities and chemical abundances for nine stars in the old, distant open clusters Be18, Be21, Be22, Be32, and PWM4. For Be18 and PWM4, these are the first... -
LITTLE THINGS survey of nearby dwarf galaxies
We present LITTLE THINGS (Local Irregulars That Trace Luminosity Extremes, The HI Nearby Galaxy Survey), which is aimed at determining what drives star formation in dwarf... -
Photometry of W UMa eclipsing binaries
We report on a BVRcIc survey of field W Ursae Majoris (UMa) binary stars and present accurate colors for 606 systems that have been observed on at least three photometric nights...
