We present a library of 139 near-IR spectra of cool asymptotic giant branch stars that will be useful for comparison with theoretical model atmosphere calculations and for modeling the integrated emission from intermediate-age stellar…

Known bright S stars, recognized as such by their enhanced s-process abundances and C/O ratio, are typically members of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) or the red giant branch (RGB). Few modern digital spectra for these objects have been…

In a previous paper [arXiv:0712.2391], we presented the selection criteria needed to search for symbiotic stars in IPHAS, the INT Halpha survey of the Northern Galactic plane. IPHAS gives us the opportunity to make a systematic, complete…

We have analysed a sample of 25 extremely red H-[4.5]>4 galaxies, selected using 4.5 micron data from the Spitzer SEDS survey and deep H-band data from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) CANDELS survey, over ~180 square arcmin of the UKIDSS…

The INT Photometric Halpha Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane (IPHAS) is a 1800 square degrees CCD survey of the northern Milky Way spanning the latitude range -5 < b < +5 (degrees) and reaching down to r' ~ 20 (10-sigma). It may…

We have used GALEX and SDSS observations to extract 7 band photometric magnitudes for over 80,000 objects in the vicinity of the North Galactic Pole. Although these had been identified as stars by the SDSS pipeline, we found through fitting…

We search for very small-diameter galactic planetary nebulae (PNe) representing the earliest phases of PN evolution. A recently published IPHAS catalogue of Ha-emitting stars provides a useful base for this study as all sources present in…

The INT Photometric H-Alpha Survey (IPHAS) is particular effective in tracing asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars across the Galactic disk due to its use of broad-band r' and i' filters, and the clear separation of the dwarf and giant…

Preliminary results of a project aiming at unveiling the nature of the extremely red galaxies (ERGs) (objects with colours R-K>6 and I-K>5) found in deep optical-NIR surveys are presented. Very little is known about these objects, the…

As part of a systematic search programme of a 10-degree wide strip of the Northern Galactic plane we present preliminary evidence for the discovery of four (and possibly five) new supernova remnants (SNRs). The pilot search area covered the…

Quasars with extremely red infrared-to-optical colours are an interesting population that can test ideas about quasar evolution as well as orientation, obscuration and geometric effects in the so-called AGN unified model. To identify such a…

Infrared surveys have discovered a significant population of bright (K<19) extremely red (R-K>6) objects. Little is known about the properties of these objects on account of their optical faintness (R>24). Here, we report deep infrared…

We present the results of broadband near-infrared spectroscopic observations of the recently discovered mysterious stellar objects in the young supernova remnant G54.1+0.3. These objects, which show significant mid-infrared excess emission,…

The main goal of this paper is to prove that accreting very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs can be identified in IPHAS, a Halpha emission survey of the northern Milky Way.Full exploitation of the IPHAS database and a future extension of it…

We investigate the infrared properties of the IRAS sources not confirmed as PNe in Van de Steene & Pottasch (1993). We observed 28 objects in the N-band of which 20 were detected and 5 were resolved. We obtained medium resolution Br_gamma…

(Abridged) The Las Campanas Infrared Survey, based on broad-band optical and near-infrared photometry, is designed to robustly identify a statistically significant and representative sample of evolved galaxies at redshifts z>1. We have…

We present a catalogue of point-source Halpha emission line objects selected from the INT/WFC Photometric H$\alpha$ Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane (IPHAS). The catalogue covers the magnitude range 13 < r' < 19.5 and includes northern…

Using early data from the Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) on the Spitzer Space Telescope, taken for the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS), we identify and study objects that are well-detected at 3.6um, but are very faint (and in…

We report the serendipitous discovery of an extremely red object in the Hubble Deep Field South (HDFS) Test NICMOS (Near Infrared Camera and Multi Object Spectrograph) field of view. The object is resolved in the NICMOS image and has a…

We discuss the very red objects found in the first field of the Caltech Faint Galaxy Redshift Survey, for which the observations and analysis are now complete. In this field, which is 15 arcmin$^2$ and at J005325+1234 there are 195 objects…
