We present positions, proper motions, and near-infrared photometry for 966 known objects with spectral types later than M observed as part of the the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey (UHS). We augment the photometry and astrometry from UHS with…
We derive the astrometric orbit of the photo-center of the close pair alpha UMi AP (=alpha UMi Aa) of the Polaris multiple stellar system. The orbit is based on the spectroscopic orbit of the Cepheid alpha UMi A (orbital period of AP: 29.59…
In this study, we present the construction of a new proper motion catalog utilizing the photometric data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) imaging surveys, with a median time baseline…
The predictions from a Galactic Structure and Kinematic model code are compared to the color counts and absolute proper-motions derived from the Southern Proper-Motion survey covering more than 700 $\deg^2$ toward the South Galactic Pole in…
Absolute proper motions for $\sim$ 7.7 million objects were derived based on data from the South Galactic Cap u-band Sky Survey (SCUSS) and astrometric data derived from uncompressed Digitized Sky Surveys that the Space Telescope Science…
The photometry data base of the second phase of the OGLE microlensing experiment, OGLE-II, is a rich source of information about the kinematics and structure of the Galaxy. In this work we use the OGLE-II proper motion catalogue to identify…
We report the discovery of 182 new southern stars with proper motion larger than 0.45''/yr. The stars were found in an expansion of the SUPERBLINK proper motion survey to 8,980 square degrees south of Decl.=-30. The new high proper motion…
We have conducted a search for new stars of high proper motion ($\geq$0.4 arcsec yr$^{-1}$) using POSS II fields for which an extra IIIaF (red) plate of good quality exists, along with useable IIIaJ (blue) and IV-N (infrared) plates taken…
A large number of candidate binary stars with apparent acceleration on the sky has emerged from analysis of astrometric data collected by the Hipparcos, Tycho-2, and Gaia space missions. Although the apparent acceleration can serve as a…
The fourth United States Naval Observatory (USNO) CCD Astrograph Catalog, UCAC4 was released in August 2012 (double-sided DVD and CDS data center Vizier catalog I/322). It is the final release in this series and contains over 113 million…
Using the absolute astrometric positions and proper motions for common stars in the Hipparcos and Gaia catalogs separated by 24.75 years in the mean epoch, we compute mass ratios for long-period, resolved binary systems without any…
We used the third data release of the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey to locate previously unrecognized high proper motion objects. We identify a total of 127 new discoveries with total proper motions $\gtrsim$300 mas yr$^{-1}$. A significant…
The U.S. Naval Observatory Robotic Astrometric Telescope (URAT) is observing the northern sky since April 2012 for an astrometric survey. Multiple overlaps per year are performed in a single bandpass (680$-$750 nm) using the "redlens" 20 cm…
We have undertaken a long term program to measure high precision proper motions of nearby Galactic globular cluster (GC) stars using multi-epoch observations with the WFPC2 and the ACS cameras on-board the Hubble Space Telescope. The proper…
High proper motion stars probe several extreme stellar populations, including nearby objects, Galactic halo stars, and hyper-velocity stars. Extending the search for high proper motion stars, to faint limits can increase their numbers and…
Radial motions of stars in nearby moving clusters are determined from accurate proper motions and trigonometric parallaxes, without any use of spectroscopy. Assuming that cluster members share the same velocity vector (apart from a random…
We present the first proper motion study of M10 (NGC6254). Absolute proper motions of about 532 stars in the field of the globular cluster M10 were determined with respect to Hipparcos and ACT reference stars. In addition to photographic…
The Intermediate Astrometric Data (IAD) and Transit Data (TD) made available by ESA after the Hipparcos mission make it possible to re-process the observations of any Hipparcos entry. This paper illustrates how TD and IAD may be used in…
We present a catalog of 1147 candidate common proper motion binaries selected from the revised New Luyten Two-Tenths Catalog. Among these, we identify 999 genuine physical pairs using the measured proper-motion difference and the relative…
We report the discovery of 141 new high proper motion systems (1.0"/yr > mu >= 0.4"/yr) in the southern sky (Declination = -90 degrees to -47 degrees) brighter than UKST plate R_{59F} = 16.5 via our SuperCOSMOS-RECONS (SCR) search. When…
