SNe type II from CSP-I, SDSS-II, and SNLS
The coming era of large photometric wide-field surveys will increase the detection rate of supernovae by orders of magnitude. Such numbers will restrict spectroscopic follow-up... -
Classical Cepheids in MCs. I. LMC disk
We present a detailed investigation of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) disk using classical Cepheids. Our analysis is based on optical (I, V; OGLE-IV), near-infrared (NIR: J,... -
Wide-field photometry of the GC Palomar 5
We present an analysis of wide-field photometric surveys of the Palomar 5 globular cluster and its stellar stream, based on g- and r-band measures together with narrow-band DDO... -
Virgo cluster ETGs: GC and galaxy diffuse light
We present a kinematic analysis of the globular cluster (GC) systems and diffuse stellar light of four intermediate luminosity (sub-L*) early-type galaxies in the Virgo cluster... -
26 type II-Plateau supernovae parameters
We present a new self-consistent and versatile method that derives photospheric radius and temperature variations of Type II-Plateau supernovae based on their expansion... -
Metal-poor stars in the thick disk of the Galaxy
A new set of very high signal-to-noise (S/N>100/1), medium-resolution (R~3000) optical spectra have been obtained for 302 of the candidate "weak-metal" stars selected by... -
SED fitting results of HETDEX pilot survey
We use broadband photometry extending from the rest-frame UV to the near-IR to fit the individual spectral energy distributions of 63 bright (L(Ly{alpha})>10^43^ erg/s)... -
UKIDSS+FIRST+SDSS red QSOs candidates
We present the results of a pilot survey to find dust-reddened quasars by matching the Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty-Centimeters (FIRST) radio catalog to the UKIDSS... -
AGN with WISE. II. The NDWFS Bootes field
Stern et al. (2012ApJ...753...30S, Paper I) presented a study of Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) selection of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in the 2deg^2^ COSMOS... -
Intermediate-mass stars in IC 1805
We report the results of a study of the intermediate- and high-mass stars in the young, rich star-forming complex IC 1805, based on a combination of optical, near-infrared, and... -
Line intensities in the planetary nebula NGC 5307
Echelle spectrophotometry of the planetary nebula NGC 5307 is presented. The data consist of Very Large Telescope Ultraviolet Visual Echelle Spectrograph observations in the... -
Young star cluster candidates in M31
We present a method for finding clusters of young stars in M31 using broadband WFPC2 data from the HST data archive. Applying our identification method to 13 WFPC2 fields,... -
UBV photometry and ages of Trapezium systems
We sought to determine the maximum age of Trapezium systems by studying possible trapezium systems that were selected independently of their occurrence in H II regions. We... -
JHKL photometry of the Galactic Center
J, H, K, and L photometry for the stars in the central ~2' (~5pc) of the Galaxy are presented. Using the observed J-H, H-K, and K-L colors and assumed intrinsic colors, we... -
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... -
{lambda} Bootis stars: the southern survey I.
The {lambda} Boo stars are a class of chemically peculiar Population I A-type stars characterized by under-abundances of the refractory elements, but near-solar abundances of... -
