A Catalog of Northern Stars with Annual Proper Motions Larger than 0.15" (LSPM-NORTH Catalog)
The LSPM catalog is a comprehensive list of 61,977 stars north of theJ2000 celestial equator that have proper motions larger than 0.15"yr-1 (local-background-stars frame). The catalog has beengenerated primarily as a result of our systematic search for high propermotion stars in the Digitized Sky Surveys using our SUPERBLINK software.At brighter magnitudes, the catalog incorporates stars and data from theTycho-2 Catalogue and also, to a lesser extent, from the All-SkyCompiled Catalogue of 2.5 million stars. The LSPM catalog considerablyexpands over the old Luyten (Luyten Half-Second [LHS] and New LuytenTwo-Tenths [NLTT]) catalogs, superseding them for northern declinations.Positions are given with an accuracy of <~100 mas at the 2000.0epoch, and absolute proper motions are given with an accuracy of ~8 masyr-1. Corrections to the local-background-stars propermotions have been calculated, and absolute proper motions in theextragalactic frame are given. Whenever available, we also give opticalBT and VT magnitudes (from Tycho-2, ASCC-2.5),photographic BJ, RF, and IN magnitudes(from USNO-B1 catalog), and infrared J, H, and Ks magnitudes(from 2MASS). We also provide an estimated V magnitude and V-J color fornearly all catalog entries, useful for initial classification of thestars. The catalog is estimated to be over 99% complete at high Galacticlatitudes (|b|>15deg) and over 90% complete at lowGalactic latitudes (|b|>15deg), down to a magnitudeV=19.0, and has a limiting magnitude V=21.0. All the northern starslisted in the LHS and NLTT catalogs have been reidentified, and theirpositions, proper motions, and magnitudes reevaluated. The catalog alsolists a large number of completely new objects, which promise to expandvery significantly the census of red dwarfs, subdwarfs, and white dwarfsin the vicinity of the Sun.Based on data mining of the Digitized Sky Surveys (DSSs), developed andoperated by the Catalogs and Surveys Branch of the Space TelescopeScience Institute (STScI), Baltimore.Developed with support from the National Science Foundation (NSF), aspart of the NASA/NSF NStars program.
| The Hamburg/RASS Catalogue of optical identifications. Northern high-galactic latitude ROSAT Bright Source Catalogue X-ray sources
We present the Hamburg/RASS Catalogue (HRC) of optical identificationsof X-ray sources at high-galactic latitude. The HRC includes all X-raysources from the ROSAT Bright Source Catalogue (RASS-BSC) with galacticlatitude |b| >=30degr and declination delta >=0degr . In thispart of the sky covering ~ 10 000 deg2 the RASS-BSC contains5341 X-ray sources. For the optical identification we used blue Schmidtprism and direct plates taken for the northern hemisphere Hamburg QuasarSurvey (HQS) which are now available in digitized form. The limitingmagnitudes are 18.5 and 20, respectively. For 82% of the selectedRASS-BSC an identification could be given. For the rest either nocounterpart was visible in the error circle or a plausibleidentification was not possible. With ~ 42% AGN represent the largestgroup of X-ray emitters, ~ 31% have a stellar counterpart, whereasgalaxies and cluster of galaxies comprise only ~ 4% and ~ 5%,respectively. In ~ 3% of the RASS-BSC sources no object was visible onour blue direct plates within 40\arcsec around the X-ray sourceposition. The catalogue is used as a source for the selection of(nearly) complete samples of the various classes of X-ray emitters.
| Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer Right Angle Program observations of cool stars
The Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE) Right Angle Program (RAP)obtains photometric data in four bands centered at 100 (Lexan/B), 200(Al/Ti/C), 400 (Ti/Sb/Al), and 550 (Sn/SiO) during pointed spectroscopicobservations. RAP observations are up to 20 times more sensitive thanthose in the EUVE all-sky survey. We present RAP observations of twodozen late-type stars. We derive surface fluxes from the Lexan/B andAl/Ti/C count rates and cataloged ROSAT Position Sensitive ProportionalCounter (PSPC) data. The EUVE surface fluxes are reasonably correlatedwith surface fluxes calculated from PSPC measurements. The timevariability of the sources has been examined. Most of the sources showno significant variability at the 99 percent confidence level. Flareswere detected from the K7 V star Melotte 25 VA 334, the K3 V star V834Tau (HD 29697), and the K3 + K8 Hyades binary BD +22669. The BD +22669count rate at the peak of the flare is a factor of 6 higher than thequiescent count rate, with a peak Lexan/B luminosity of 7.9 1029 ergs/s.The V834 Tau flare was detected in both Lexan/B and Al/Ti/C bands. Thepeak luminosity of the flare is 1.6 1029 and 8 1028 ergs/s for Lexan/Band Al/Ti/C, respectively.
| The Second Extreme-Ultraviolet Explorer Source Catalog
We present the second catalog of extreme-ultraviolet objects detected bythe Extreme-Ultraviolet Explorer. The data include (1) all-sky surveydetections from the initial 6 month scanner-survey phase, (2) additionalscanner detections made subsequently during specially programmedobservations designed to fill in low-exposure sky areas of the initialsurvey, (3) sources detected with deep-survey-telescope observationsalong the ecliptic, (4) objects detected by the scanner telescopesduring targeted spectroscopy observations, and ( 3) other observations.We adopt an innovative source detection method that separates the usuallikelihood function into two parts: an intensity diagnostic and aprofile diagnostic. These diagnostics allow each candidate detection tobe tested separately for both signal-to-noise ratio and conformance withthe known instrumental point-spread function. We discuss the dependenceof the false-alarm rate and the survey's completeness on the survey'ssensitivity threshold. We provide three lists of the EUV sourcesdetected: the all-sky survey detections, the deep-survey detections, andsources detected during other phases of the mission. Each list givespositions and intensities in each wave band. The total number of objectslisted is 734. For approximately 65% of these we also provide plausibleoptical, UV, radio, and/or X-ray identifications.
| EUVE Right Angle Program Observations of Late-Type Stars
The EUVE Right Angle Program (RAP) obtains photometric data in fourbands centered at ~ 100 Angstroms (Lexan/B), ~ 200 Angstroms (Al/Ti/C),~ 400 Angstroms (Ti/Sb/Al), and ~ 550 Angstroms (Sn/SiO). RAPobservations are up to 20 times more sensitive than the all-sky survey.We present RAP observations of the late-type stars: BD+03 301, BD+05300, HR 1262, BD+23 635, BD+22 669, Melotte 25 VA 334, Melotte 25 1366,Melotte 25 59, Melotte 25 65, theta (1) Tau, V834 Tau, GJ 2037, BD-211074, GJ 205, RE J0532-030, GJ 9287A, HT Vir, BD+46 1944, Proxima Cen,alpha Cen A/B, HR 6094, CPD-48 10901, and HR 8883. We derive fluxes andemission measures from Lexan/B and Al/Ti/C count rates. The timevariability of the sources has been examined. Most of the sources showno significant variability at the 99% confidence level. Flares weredetected from the K3V star V834 Tau (HD 29697) and the K0 star BD+22669. The BD+22 669 count rate at the peak of the flare is a factor of 10higher than the quiescent count rate with a peak Lexan/B luminosity of7.9 x 10(29) erg s(-1) . The V834 Tau flare was detected in both Lexan/Band Al/Ti/C bands. The peak luminosity of the flare is 1.6 x 10(29) ergs(-1) and 8 x 10(28) ergs s(-1) for Lexan/B and Al/Ti/C, respectively.This is a factor of 4.3 higher than the quiescent luminosity in Lexan/B,and a factor of 4.6 in Al/Ti/C\@.

| Photometry of faint red stars
Broadband photoelectric BVI photometry has been obtained for 56 redstars detected in an objective-prism survey. The magnitude range for theprogram stars was V = 8.6-12.2. The sample contained 33 probable dwarfstars and 21 probable giant stars identified using the (B-V) - (V-I)two-color diagram and two stars of uncertain luminosity class. Distanceswere derived from photometric parallaxes and used with proper motionsobtained from various sources to compute tangential velocities for theprobable dwarf stars.
