PanSTARRS-1 slow-blue nuclear hypervariables
We discuss 76 large amplitude transients ({Delta}m>1.5) occurring in the nuclei of galaxies, nearly all with no previously known active galactic nucleus (AGN). They have been... -
Type 2 AGNs with double-peaked narrow emission lines
1 per cent of redshift z~0.1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) show velocity splitting of a few hundred km/s in the narrow emission lines in spatially integrated spectra. Such line... -
BOSS narrow CIV absorption lines. III.
In this paper, we extend our work of IV {lambda}{lambda}1548,1551 narrow absorption lines (NALs) with z_abs_<<z_em_ on quasar spectra of the Baryon Oscillation... -
DIB 661.3nm in Cepheid spectra
We have investigated the diffuse interstellar band (DIB) at 661.3nm seen in the spectra of Cepheid stars. After removal of the blending lines of ionized yttrium and neutral... -
RGB stars in NGC 6822, Ca II triplet
We present a detailed analysis of the chemistry and kinematics of red giants in the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822. Spectroscopy at ~8500{AA} was acquired for 72 red giant... -
CaII triplet in red giant spectra
Measurements are presented and analysed of the strength of the CaII triplet lines in red giants in Galactic globular and open clusters, and in a sample of red giants in the LMC... -
SDSS DLA and absorber quasar samples
The dust content of damped Lyman {alpha} systems (DLAs) is an important observable for understanding their origin and the neutral gas reservoirs of galaxies. While the average... -
188 CIV BAL QSOs from SDSS DR7
The variability of broad absorption lines (BALs) is investigated for a sample of 188 BAL quasars (QSOs) (z>1.7) with at least two epoch observations from the Sloan Digital... -
Abundance ratio for 5 local stellar associations
We have observed high-dispersion echelle spectra of main-sequence stars in five nearby young associations - Argus, Carina-Near, Hercules-Lyra, Orion and Subgroup B4 - and... -
NIR spectroscopy of Galactic WR stars. III
A new method of image subtraction is applied to images from a J, K, and narrow-band imaging survey of 300 deg2 of the plane of the Galaxy, searching for new Wolf-Rayet (WR)... -
Circumnuclear star-forming regions
We present photometry in U, B, V, R and I continuum bands and in H{alpha} and H{beta} emission lines for a sample of 336 circumnuclear star-forming regions located in early-type... -
CF-HiZELS survey
We present results from the largest contiguous narrow-band survey in the near-infrared. We have used the wide-field infrared camera/Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope and the lowOH2... -
Line list for red giants in open clusters
We have observed high-dispersion echelle spectra of red giant members in the five open clusters (OCs) NGC 1342, NGC 1662, NGC 1912, NGC 2354 and NGC 2447 and determined their... -
Quasars narrow absorption lines from SDSS
We assemble 3524 quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) with repeated observations to search for variations of the narrow C IV {lambda}{lambda}1548, 1551 and Mg II... -
EWs of metal-poor stars in the UMi I dSph galaxy
We present detailed chemical element abundance ratios of 17 elements with eight<=Z<=60 in three metal-poor stars in the Ursa Minor dwarf spheroidal galaxy, which we... -
L and T dwarfs from UKIDSS LAS
We present the spectroscopic analysis of a large sample of late-M, L, and T dwarfs from the United Kingdom Deep Infrared Sky Survey. Using the YJHK photometry from the Large... -
CIV absorption in BAL QSOs
There is a large diversity in the CIV broad absorption line (BAL) profile among BAL quasars (BALQs). We quantify this diversity by exploring the distribution of the CIV BAL... -
New damped Ly{alpha} absorbers
Quasar damped Ly{alpha} (DLA) absorption-line systems with redshifts z<1.65 are used to trace neutral gas over approximately 70 percent of the most recent history of the... -
Equivalent widths and atomic data for GCs
Detailed chemical abundances for five stars in two Galactic globular clusters, NGC 5466 and NGC 5024, are presented from high-resolution optical (from the Hobby-Eberley... -
Emission lines for SDSS Coronal-Line Forest AGNs
We introduce Coronal-Line Forest active galactic nuclei (CLiF AGN), AGN which have a rich spectrum of forbidden high-ionization lines (FHILs, e.g. [FeVII], [FeX] and [NeV]), as...
