    0351+026 - A QSO spawned by interacting galaxies (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The results of a detailed investigation into the nature of the H I-rich quasi-stellar object 0351+026 are presented. An improved H I profile reveals the presence of two distinct components. A high-quality CCD image clearly shows the presence of two galaxies. The brighter galaxy hosts the QSO while the less luminous companion has a prominent, apparently stellar nucleus. Moreover, this image also shows streamers of nebulosity emanating from the two galaxies and has an overall morphology which is highly reminiscent of that seen in other strongly interacting galaxies. Optical spectroscopy of the system shows that the forbidden O III emission lies between the two nuclei and there is strong evidence of stellar absorption lines in both the host and companion galaxies. Overall, the data suggest that this system represents a violent encounter between two low-luminosity H I-rich galaxies. The possibility exists that this collision has triggered the QSO activity in the brighter galaxy.

    1 millimeter continuum observations of quasars (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Broadband 1-mm continuum observations of 37 active extragalactic objects are discussed in the context of several models of the radio and IR continuum emission of compact extragalactic objects. The observed correlation of the 1-mm flux density of 'blazars', or BL Lac objects and optically violent, variable quasars, with both radio and IR emission, is a natural consequence of the attribution of the radio-to-optical blazar continuum to synchrotron radiation from a relativistic jet viewed nearly along its axis. It is shown that a Comptonization model in which the IR continuum of quasars is produced by the upscattering of radio photons into the IR by a thermal plasma will be in accord with the 1-mm and IR data, if these photons have frequencies in the 10 to the 12th to 10 to the 13th Hz range.

    1-20 micron infrared photometry of 3CR radio galaxies (1984)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Seven emission-line radio galaxies in the wavelength range from 1 to 20 microns were observed in February 1983. Three broad emission-line galaxies (BLRGs 3C 109, 3C 234, and 3C 445), and four narrow emission-line radio galaxies (NLRGs 3C 98, 3C 198, 3C 223, and 3C 293) were found. The BLRGs showed strong infrared fluxes beyond 3.5 microns, with steep infrared slopes similar to optical slopes. In a comparison with earlier observational data it was found that two of the BLRGs are variable in the JHK filter range without a change of slope. The NLRGs showed strong excess at 10 microns and normal elliptical galaxy colors at JHK and L. Simple predictions based on type-2 Seyfert galaxies show that strong infrared excesses are absent.

    1.0 millimeter maps and radial density distributions of Southern H II/molecular cloud complexes (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Measurements of the 1.0-mm continuum emission from seven Southern Hemisphere H II region/molecular cloud complexes located in the inner part of the Galaxy near the galactic plane are presented. The sources were mapped based on observations made by a remote-controlled prime focus infrared photometer on the Cerro Tololo 4-m telescope at a resolution of 65 arcsec. The morphologies and physical characteristics of the sources investigated are found to be similar, with dust column densities of 0.006-0.030 g/sq cm, linear extents of 1.5-3 pc, total masses of 20,000-100,000 solar masses and infrared luminosities between 2 and 4 x 10 to the 6th solar luminosities. In all cases, the dense, extended dust envelopes are observed to be singly peaked and centered about one or more compact near-infrared sources, with a radial density distribution around the central peak proportional to the -1.5 power of the radius as in other extended 1.0-mm continuum sources.

    1300 + 361 A,B is not a gravitational lens (1984)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Spectroscopic observations toward 1300 + 361 B obtained at 320-940 nm using a double spectrograph with CCD detectors on the 5-m Hale telescope (resolution about 7 A at 470-940 nm and 10-12 A at 320-470 nm on April 4-5, 1984, are reported. Two objects with magnitude 20 and spectral characteristics resembling those of an interacting pair of metal-poor H II regions at redshift 0.107 are observed, separated by about 10.6 arcsec and with a velocity difference of less than 80 km/s. It is considered unlikely that these objects form a gravitational-lens system. The ratio of the dereddened flux of the 5007-A forbidden line of O III to that of H-beta is found to be 5.03 for 1300 + 361 A and 3.67 for 1300 + 361 B; the difference is attributed to the presence of star-forming regions in the interacting system.

    150 GHz observations of three radio galaxies (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: Radio galaxies were observed for the first time at 150 GHz. The central sources in Cyg A and 3C 111 were detected, as were the two radio lobes of Cyg A. No emission was found from the central source in 3C 236. The millimeter-wavelength emission from the central sources in Cyg A and 3C 111 is probably due in each case to a compact component that is optically thin to synchrotron radiation above about 35 GHz. These components are similar, although the compact component in 3C 111 is more luminous at both radio and X-ray wavelengths than the one in Cyg A. The 3C 111 central source was much weaker than anticipated on the basis of prior observations at 90 GHz, perhaps due to variability. Even at 150 GHz, there is no evidence of a high-frequency cutoff in the spectrum of the central source in Cyg A, and variability of this source also is expected. The flux densities of the Cyg A lobes are consistent with the power laws derived at lower frequencies, indicating that no steepening occurs in their spectra out to at least 150 GHz. There is no evidence for a compact, optically thick component in 3C 236.

    1548C27 - An interesting new cometary nebula (1981)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: The object 1548C27, a faint cometary nebula of classical form, discovered by an examination of early Near Infrared Photographic Sky Survey (NIPSS) data (1979) is presented. Direct imaging and polarimetric, photometric, and spectroscopic observations are reported. Early survey test photographs show that the object lies at R.A. 19h40m48s, Decl. +23 deg 17 arcmin 09 arc sec (1950) in the Vulpecula constellation in the immediate vicinity of the complex H II region and galactic cluster NGC 6820/6823. From the photographs, the nebula was estimated to be 15 m visual and of color class one. The object was observed spectroscopically in the region 5700-6800 A using an Image Dissector Scanner with a 1.8 m reflector, and the spectral scan, obtained on November 4, 1978, is presented. New information on cometary nebulae may further illuminate the evolutionary importance of the objects.

    183 GHz water line variation - An energetic outburst in Orion KL (1984)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: Observations of the 3(13)-2(20) transition of water vapor in the direction of Ori MC1 in 1980 February show a 50 percent flux increase and an apparent additional red shift of approximately 2 km/s relative to the line observed in 1977 December. From a detailed examination of the amplitude and frequency calibration, it appears unlikely that the effect is due to systematic error. The increase is attributed to the appearance of a new component at a velocity of 12 km/s with respect to the local standard of rest. The new component also has broad wings. Increased emission from a region in the high-velocity core of Ori MC1 can be due either to additional far-IR radiation to pump the 1983 GHz transition or to a change in the physical conditions in the gas. Statistical equilibrium calculations using the large-velocity-gradient formalism were carried out to develop a model for the emission. The calculations support a model in which the gas in the region of enhanced emission is hotter than the dust. The temporal coincidence between the 183 GHz increase and the 22 GH1 water maser outburst suggests a common, impulsive cause, which has heated the gas in a part of the HV source, enhancing the emission in both transitions.

    1E 0104.2 + 3153 - A broad absorption-line QSO viewed through a giant elliptical galaxy (1984)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The optical identification of the X-ray source 1E 0104.2 + 3153 is complicated by the close projection of a broad absorption-line (BAL) QSO (z = 2.027) 10 arcsec from a giant elliptical galaxy (z = 0.111) at the center of a compact group of galaxies. At only 1.2 de Vaucouleur radii (16 kpc for H sub 0 = 100 km/s Mpc) this QSO-galaxy projection is the closest yet discovered. Based upon current observations, the source of the X-ray emission cannot be conclusively determined. Present in the BAL QSO spectrum are extremely strong Ca II H and K absorption lines due to the intervening galaxy, the first optical detection of the cold interstellar medium in an elliptical galaxy. The strength of these lines (EW = 2 and 1 A) requires observation through several interstellar clouds in the line of sight to the QSO. By its proximity to the central regions of the elliptical galaxy and the relative distances of the galaxy and QSO, this QSO is a particularly good candidate for observing dramatic transient gravitational lensing phenomena due to halo stars in the foreground galaxy.
