Data release for paper "The Araucaria Project: Deep near-infrared photometric maps of Local and Sculptor Group galaxies. I. Carina, Fornax, Sculptor"
<p>Deep near-infrared J- and K-band photometry of three Local Group dwarf spheroidal galaxies: Fornax, Carina, and Sculptor, is made available for the community. Until now, these data have only been used by the Araucaria Project to determine distances using the tip of the red giant and RR Lyrae stars. Now, we present the entire data collection in a form of a database, consisting of accurate J- and K-band magnitudes, sky coordinates, ellipticity measurements, and timestamps of observations, complemented by stars' loci in their reference images. Depth of our photometry reaches about 22 mag at 5 sigma level, and is comparable to NIR surveys, like the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) or the VISTA Hemisphere Survey (VHS), and small overlap with VHS and no overlap with UKIDSS makes our database a unique source of quality photometry.</p> <p>Data release consists of:</p> <ul> <li>databases in a form of text files for Carina, Fornax and Sculptor galaxies<br> (db_Car.txt, db_For.txt , db_Scu.txt)</li> <li>completeness tables and plots for every field in Carina, Fornax and Sculptor galaxies<br> (compl_Car.pdf, compl_Car.txt, compl_Scu.pdf, compl_Scu.txt, compl_For.pdf, compl_For.txt)</li> <li>explanatory file for each galaxy<br> (info_Car.txt, info_Scu.txt, info_For.txt)</li> <li>FITS images of scientific quality of all analyzed fields in Carina, Fornax and Sculptor galaxies, archived in tar.gz files</li> </ul>
Galaxy groups and protocluster candidates in the CLAUDS and HSC-SSP joint deep surveys
<p>Using the extended halo-based group finder developed by <a href="http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/abddb2/pdf">Yang et al. 2021</a>, which is able to deal with galaxies via spectroscopic and photometric redshifts simultaneously, we (<a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/2205.05517">Li et al. 2022</a>) construct galaxy group and candidate protocluster catalogs in a wide redshift range (<span class="math-tex">\(0 < z < 6\)</span>) from the joint CFHT Large Area <em>U</em>-band Deep Survey (CLAUDS) and Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program (HSC-SSP) deep data set. Based on a selection of 5,607,052 galaxies with<em> i</em>-band magnitude m<em><sub>i </sub></em>< 26 and a sky coverage of 34.41 deg<sup>2</sup>, we identify a total of 2,232,134 groups, within which 402,947 groups have at least three member galaxies. By checking the galaxy number distributions within a 5-7 <em>h<sup>-1</sup></em>Mpc projected separation and a redshift difference <span class="math-tex">\(\Delta z \leq 0.1\)</span> around those richest groups at redshift <span class="math-tex">\(z > 2\)</span>, we identified a list of 761, 343 and 43 protocluster candidates in the redshift bins <span class="math-tex">\(2 \leq z < 3\)</span>, <span class="math-tex">\(3 \leq z < 4\)</span> and <span class="math-tex">\(z > 4\)</span>, respectively. </p> <p> </p> <p>More details can be found in our paper (<a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/2205.05517">arXiv: 2205.05517</a>).

Shakbazian Compact Groups of Galaxies
This catalog is a compilation of ten lists of compact groups of compact galaxies found on the Palomar Sky Survey red charts and published in the period 1973 to 1979 by Shakhbazian, Petrosian, and collaborators. The catalog contains 377 groups of compact galaxies and includes identifications, equatorial coordinates, numbers of constituent galaxies, magnitudes of the brightest member, sizes of the groups as a whole, and coefficients of relative compactness. The HEASARC has a related database table, SHKGALAXY, which contains data on the individual galaxies in the Shakhbazian Compact Groups. This database table was created by the HEASARC in December, 1999, based on the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VII/89B">CDS catalog VII/89B</a>.

Faint Sky Variability Survey Catalog of Galaxy Clusters and Rich Groups
The Faint Sky Variability Survey Catalog of Galaxy Clusters and Rich Groups contains a a large sample of 598 galaxy clusters and rich groups discovered in the data of the Faint Sky Variability Survey (FSVS). The clusters have been identified using a fully automated, semi-parametric technique based on a maximum likelihood approach applied to Voronoi tessellation, and enhanced by color discrimination. The sample covers a wide range of richness, has a density of ~28 clusters per square degree, and spans a range of estimated redshifts of 0.05 < z < 0.9 with mean <z> = 0.345. Assuming the presence of a cluster red sequence, the uncertainty of the estimated cluster redshifts is assessed to be sigma ~ 0.03. Containing over 100 clusters with z > 0.6, the catalog contributes substantially to the current total of optically-selected, intermediate-redshift clusters, and complements the existing, usually X-ray selected, samples. The FSVS fields are accessible for observation throughout the whole year, making them particularly suited for large follow-up programs. The construction of this FSVS Cluster Catalogue completes a fundamental component of the authors' continuing program to investigate the environments of quasars and the chemical evolution of galaxies. The present table contains the list of all clusters with their basic parameters. This table was created by the HEASARC in July 2006 based on the table cluster_catalogue.txt copied from the first author's website <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20100318044103/www-astro.physics.ox.ac.uk/~iks/FSVScatalogue/">https://web.archive.org/web/20100318044103/www-astro.physics.ox.ac.uk/~iks/FSVScatalogue/</a> (no longer available, unfortunately).

BAX X-Ray Galaxy Clusters and Groups Catalog
This table contains the BAX X-Ray Galaxy Clusters and Groups Catalog. BAX (`Base de Donnees Amas de Galaxies X': see <a href="http://bax.ast.obs-mip.fr/">http://bax.ast.obs-mip.fr/</a> for more details) is a multi-wavelength database dedicated to X-ray clusters and groups of galaxies which allows detailed information retrieval. BAX is designed to support astronomical research by providing access to published measurements of the main physical quantities and to the related bibliographic references: basic data stored in the database are cluster/group identifiers, equatorial coordinates, redshift, flux, X-ray luminosity (in the ROSAT band) and temperature, and (in the online version at <a href="http://bax.ast.obs-mip.fr/">http://bax.ast.obs-mip.fr/</a>) links to additional linked parameters (in X-rays, such as spatial profile parameters, as well as SZ parameters of the hot gas, lensing measurements, and data at other wavelengths, such as the optical and radio bands). The clusters and groups in the online BAX database can be queried by the basic parameters as well as the linked parameters or combinations of these. The authors expect BAX to become an important tool for the astronomical community. BAX will optimize various aspects of the scientific analysis of X-ray clusters and groups of galaxies, from proposal planning to data collection, interpretation and publication, from both ground based facilities like MEGACAM (CFHT), VIRMOS (VLT) and from space missions like XMM-Newton, Chandra and Planck. This table was created by the HEASARC in October 2004 based on CDS table B/bax/bax.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
XMM-Newton CFHTLS W1 Field Galaxy Groups Catalog
This table contains a catalog of 128 X-ray galaxy groups, covering a redshift (z) range 0.04 < z <1.23, selected in the ~ 3 deg<sup>2</sup> part of the CFHTLS W1 field overlapping XMM-Newton observations performed under the XMM-LSS project. The authors carry out a statistical study of the redshift evolution out to redshift 1 of the magnitude gap between the first and the second brightest cluster galaxies of a well defined mass-selected group sample. They find that the slope of the relation between the fraction of groups and the magnitude gap steepens with redshift, indicating a larger fraction of fossil groups at lower redshifts. They also find that 22.2% +/- 6% of their groups at z <= 0.6 are fossil groups. The authors compare their results with the predictions of three semi-analytic models based on the Millennium simulation. The intercept of the relation between the magnitude of the brightest galaxy and the value of magnitude gap becomes brighter with increasing redshift. This trend is steeper than the model predictions which the authors attribute to the younger stellar age of the observed brightest cluster galaxies. This trend argues in favor of stronger evolution of the feedback from active galactic nuclei at z < 1 compared to the models. The slope of the relation between the magnitude of the brightest cluster galaxy and the value of the gap does not evolve with redshift and is well reproduced by the models, indicating that the tidal galaxy stripping, put forward as an explanation of the occurrence of the magnitude gap, is both a dominant mechanism and sufficiently well modeled. In this study, the authors analyzed the XMM-Newton observations of the CFHTLS wide (W1) field as a part of the XMM-LSS survey (Pierre et al., 2007, MNRAS, 382, 279). The details of the observations and the data reduction are presented in Bielby et al. (2010, A&A, 523, A66). The authors concentrate on the low-z counterparts of the X-ray sources and use all XMM-Newton observations performed until 2009, covering an area of 2.276 x 2.276 square degrees. The CFHTLS wide observations were carried out in the period between 2003 and 2008, covering an effective survey area of ~ 154 square degrees. The optical images and data of the CFHTLS were obtained with the MegaPrime instrument mounted on the CFHT in the five filters u*, g', r', i' and z'. This table was created by the HEASARC in December 2014 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/566/A140">CDS catalog J/A+A/566/A140</a> file table1.dat.

Shakhabazian (Shk) Compact Groups of Galaxies: Individual Galaxies Data
The largest survey of compact galaxy groups was published by Shakhbazian et al. (the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VII/89">CDS catalog VII/89</a>, implemented by the HEASARC as the SHK database table). This present catalog provides accurate positions of the individual galaxies in the groups; photometric properties of the Southern sky (delta not greater than +2.5 degrees) are evaluated on the basis of the COSMOS/UKST catalog of the Southern sky. This catalog contains 373 groups; this number differs from the number in Shakhbazian's list (377 groups) by the following: (i) there are no data for groups 001 (already published by other authors), 206 and 241 (could not be re-identified), 252 (this is identical with 214), 301 and 353 (could not be re-identified); (ii) Group 328 was published twice (in North and South); and (iii) Group 340 was divided in two parts (340 and 340a), according to Bettoni and Fasano ([BF95]=1995AJ....109...32B). This HEASARC version of the catalog contains a total of 3435 individual galaxies identified as members of the compact groups, 2574 from the northern part of this survey (taken from the ADS Catalog VII/196 file north.dat), and 861 from the southern part of this survey (extracted from the 10746 entries in the ADS Catalog VII/196 file south.dat by including only entries corresponding to bona fide group members). This database table was created by the HEASARC in June, 2000, based on the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VII/196">CDS Catalog VII/196</a> (files north.dat and south.dat).

ROSAT All-Sky Survey CALS Galaxy Groups Catalog
This table contains the catalog from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) Center for Astrophysics (CfA) Loose Systems, or RASSCALS, the largest X-ray and optical survey of low-mass galaxy groups as of its publication date in 2000. The authors drew 260 groups from the combined Center for Astrophysics and Southern Sky Redshift Surveys, covering one-quarter of the sky to a limiting Zwicky magnitude of m<sub>z</sub> = 15.5. They detected 61 groups (23%) as extended X-ray sources. The X-ray detections have a median membership of nine galaxies, a median recession velocity cz = 7250 km/s, a median projected velocity dispersion sigma(p) = 400 km/s, and a median X-ray luminosity L(x) = 3 x 10<sup>42</sup> /h(100)<sup>2</sup> erg/s, where the Hubble constant is H(0) = 100 h(100) km/s/Mpc. The data in this table replace the preliminary analysis of the X-ray data which was presented in Mahdavi et al., 1999, ApJ, 518, 69 (CDS Cat. <J/ApJ/518/69>. This table was created by the HEASARC in September 2005 based on CDS tables J/ApJ/534/114/table2.dat & table3.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
Hickson Compact Groups of Galaxies (HCG) Catalog
The HCG database table is based on the Hickson Catalog, which is a list of 100 compact groups of galaxies that were identified by a systematic search of the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey red prints. Each group contains four or more galaxies, has an estimated mean surface brightness brighter than 26.0 magnitude per arcsec<sup>2</sup> and satisfies an isolation criterion. Dynamical parameters which were derived for 92 of the 100 groups are also included in the database. (Note that the Hubble constant was assumed to be Ho = 100 km/s/Mpc.) This database table essentially contains the information given in Table 1 of Hickson, P. (1982, ApJ, 255, 382) and Table 3 of Hickson, P. et al. (1992, ApJ, 399, 353). Consequently, the information on individual galaxies in the Hickson groups that is also given in these references, e.g., in Table 2 of Hickson, P. et al. (1992, ApJ, 399, 353), is not in the HCG database table; however, the latter data can be found in the related HEASARC database table HCGGALAXY. This online catalog was created by the HEASARC in August, 1999, based on machine-readable tables obtained from the ADC/CDS data centers (<a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VII/213:">CDS catalog VII/213:</a> files groups.dat and dynamics.dat). The HEASARC refined the coordinates, corrected the dynamics_flag values, and updated the table's metadata in August, 2005. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
X-Ray Observations of Compact Group Galaxies
This catalog presents the study of a sample of 15 compact groups (CGs) observed with Chandra/ACIS, Swift/UVOT and Spitzer/IRAC-MIPS for which archival data exist, allowing the authors to obtain SFRs, stellar masses, sSFRs and X-ray fluxes and luminosities for individual, off-nuclear point sources, which they summed to obtain total X-ray luminosities originating in off-nuclear point sources in a galaxy. Details on the Swift and Spitzer observations and data for systems in this sample can be found in Tzanavaris et al. (2010ApJ...716..556T) and Lenkic et al. (2016MNRAS.459.2948L). For Chandra/ACIS observations, see Tzanavaris et al. (2014ApJS..212....9T) and Desjardins et al. (2013ApJ...763..121D; 2014ApJ...790..132D). The authors obtained total galaxy X-ray luminosities, L<sub>X</sub>, originating from individually detected point sources in a sample of 47 galaxies in 15 compact groups of galaxies (CGs). For the great majority of the galaxies, they found that the detected point sources most likely are local to their associated galaxy, and are thus extragalactic X-ray binaries (XRBs) or nuclear active galactic nuclei (AGNs). For spiral and irregular galaxies, they found that, after accounting for AGNs and nuclear sources, most CG galaxies are either within the +/- 1 sigma scatter of the Mineo et al. L<sub>X</sub>-star formation rate (SFR) correlation or have higher L<sub>X</sub> than predicted by this correlation for their SFR. These "excesses" may be due to low metallicities and high interaction levels. For elliptical and S0 galaxies, after accounting for AGNs and nuclear sources, most CG galaxies were found to be consistent with the Boroson et al. L<sub>X</sub>-stellar mass correlation for low-mass XRBs, with larger scatter, likely due to residual effects such as AGN activity or hot gas. Assuming non-nuclear sources are low- or high-mass XRBs, the authors used appropriate XRB luminosity functions to estimate the probability that stochastic effects can lead to such extreme L<sub>X</sub> values. They found that, although stochastic effects do not in general appear to be important, for some galaxies there is a significant probability that high L<sub>X</sub> values can be observed due to strong XRB variability. This table was created by the HEASARC in May 2019 based upon the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/ApJ/817/95">CDS Catalog J/ApJ/817/95</a> file table3.dat This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
Hickson Compact Groups of Galaxies (HCG) Individual Galaxies Data
The HCGGALAXY database table is based on the Hickson Catalog of Compact Groups, and contains data on 463 galaxies in 100 compact groups of galaxies that were identified by a systematic search of the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey red prints. Each group contains four or more galaxies, has an estimated mean surface brightness brighter than 26.0 magnitude per arcsec<sup>2</sup> and satisfies an isolation criterion. Astrometry, photometry, and morphological types, derived from CCD images, are presented for the 463 galaxies. Radial velocities are given for 457 of the 463 galaxies: more than 84% of the galaxies measured have radial velocities that are within 1000 km/s of the group median velocity. Morphological information derived from either an isophotal analysis or from a visual inspection of images is given for 210 of the 463 galaxies. This database table essentially contains the information given in Table 2 of Hickson, P. et al. (1989, ApJS, 70, 687), Table 2 of Hickson, P. et al. (1992, ApJ, 399, 353), and Table 2 of Mendes de Oliveira, C. and Hickson, P. (1994, ApJ, 427, 684). Consequently, the information on the properties of the Hickson Compact Groups as units that is also given in some of these references, e.g., in Table 3 of Hickson, P. et al. (1992, ApJ, 399, 353), is not in the HCGGALXY database table; however, the latter data can be found in the related HEASARC database table HCG. This database table was created by the HEASARC in August, 1999, based on machine-readable tables obtained from the ADC/CDS data centers (<a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VII/213">CDS catalog VII/213</a>, files galaxies.dat and morpho.dat). The HEASARC added Galactic coordinates and updated the table's metadata in August, 2005. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
