We present the second catalog of serendipitously discovered compact extragalactic emission-line sources -- H$\alpha$ Dots. These objects have been discovered in searches of moderately deep narrow-band images acquired for the ALFALFA…

We introduce a procedure to identify very soft X-ray sources (VSSs) in external galaxies. Our immediate goal was to formulate a systematic procedure to identify luminous supersoft X-ray sources (SSSs), so as to allow comparisons among…

Radio continuum surveys of the Galactic plane can find and characterize HII regions, supernova remnants (SNRs), planetary nebulae (PNe), and extragalactic sources. A number of surveys at high angular resolution (<25") at different…

This paper provides a catalogue of stars, quasars, and galaxies for the Southern Photometric Local Universe Survey Data Release 2 (S-PLUS DR2) in the Stripe 82 region. We show that a 12-band filter system (5 Sloan-like and 7 narrow bands)…

Extensive astronomical surveys, like those conducted with the {\em Chandra} X-ray Observatory, detect hundreds of thousands of unidentified cosmic sources. Machine learning (ML) methods offer an efficient, probabilistic approach to classify…

Context. In modern astronomy, machine learning has proved to be efficient and effective to mine the big data from the newesttelescopes. Spectral surveys enable us to characterize millions of objects, while long exposure time observations…

We present optical and near-infrared imaging covering a $\sim$1.53 deg$^2$ region in the Super-Cluster Assisted Shear Survey (SuperCLASS) field, which aims to make the first robust weak lensing measurement at radio wavelengths. We derive…

We have detected 18 sources over 6 sigma threshold within two regions 8.3X16.9 arcmin^2 and 8.3X33.6 arcmin^2 in the vicinity of the point with alpha=03h31m02.45s (J2000) and delta=+43degree47arcmin58.5arcsec (J2000) using a CHANDRA ACIS…

We present optical candidates for 75 X-ray sources in a $\sim 1$ deg$^2$ overlapping region with the medium deep ROSAT survey. These candidates are selected using the multi-color CCD imaging observations made for the T329 field of the…

The Serendipitous Extragalactic X-ray Source Identification (SEXSI) Program is designed to expand significantly the sample of identified extragalactic hard X-ray sources at intermediate fluxes, 1e-13 erg/cm2/s < S_(2-10 keV) < 1e-15…

Low-mass emission-line stars belong to various evolutionary stages, from pre-main-sequence young stars to evolved stars. In this work, we present a catalog of late-type (F0 to M9) emission-line stars from the LAMOST Data Release 6. Using…
