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.
| Lithium in high velocity A and F stars: Constraints on the blue straggler phenomenon
We have determined equivalent widths for a number of atomic lines,including the lambda 6707 resonance doublet of Li, from spectra of asample of candidate early-type high-velocity stars (including a numberof blue straggler candidates) and low-velocity comparison stars. We findthat the high-velocity candidates can be divided into three distinctgroups: (1) stars with low abundances both of Li and of metals ingeneral; (2) stars with low abundances of Li but only slightdeficiencies of the other metals; and (3) stars with nearly normalamounts of both Li and other metals. We tentatively identify thesegroups as (1) halo and thick-disk blue stragglers; (2) old, thinnishdisk blue stragglers; and (3) nearly normal Population l stars whichprobably lie in the tail of the usual Pop. l velocity distribution. Thekinematic properties of the three groups are consistent with thisinterpretation. Li is a fragile element which is easily destroyed in thehot interiors of main-sequence stars, and has previously been shown tobe depleted in the atmospheres of blue stragglers in the open clusterM67. Our results on objects that we have identified in this paper asold, halo or thick disk, field blue stragglers suggest that lithiumdepletion is a general property of blue stragglers; this argues thatlarge scale mixing must be a part of any mechanism that produces bluestragglers. Our observations of low lithium abundances in a number ofmetal-normal, high-velocity, A stars, suggest that the high-latitude Astars observed by Rodgers an d collaborators are probably not producedin the collison of a Magellanic Cloud-like object with the Galactic diskin the past few Gyr. A more likely hypothesis (that is consistent withour lithium abundances) is that the high latitude, normal gravity,metal-rich, A star population consists primarily of blue stragglers.These data also have allowed a redetermination of the relationshipbetween the Stromgren metallicity index delta mo and (M/H)for low-metallicity objects.
| Early type high-velocity stars in the solar neighborhood. IV - Four-color and H-beta photometry
Results are presented from photometric obaservations in the Stromgrenuvby four-color and H-beta systems of early-type high-velocity stars inthe solar neighborhood. Several types of photometrically peculiar starsare selected on the basis of their Stromgren indices and areprovisionally identified as peculiar A stars, field horizontal-branchstars, metal-poor stars near the Population II and old-disk turnoffs,metal-poor blue stragglers, or metallic-line A stars. Numerousphotometrically normal stars were also found.
| Early-type high-velocity stars in the solar neighborhood. I - List of candidates
Suspected nearby high-velocity stars of spectral types B and A areidentified by their proper motions, which are generally too small forthe stars to have been included in previous catalogs of high-velocitystars. The same selection process is then extended to spectral type Fstars, in order to both provide a companion sample and investigatewhether the hypothetical high-velocity, metal-rich population continuesto later spectral types. Of the presented list of 371 stars withconfirmed proper motions, 168 are of A and B spectral types. Photometricand spectroscopic observations of these stars are required to eliminatethose with misclassified spectra and convert proper motions into spacevelocities. The identification of type of stars is important forunderstanding apparent exceptions to the correlation between stellarages, metal abundances, and kinematic properties.
