We have carried out spectroscopic classification of 6301 of these objects and revealed many Seyferts, LINERs and Starbursts. We have also studied radio properties of VCV-13 AGN, Markarian galaxies and Blazars. One of the aims of our studies is to establish the radio/opt flux ratio limit between normal galaxies detected in radio and radio loud active galaxies. The ultimate goal of these studies is to combine results obtained from radio studies and derived radio properties of active galaxies with gammaray, X-ray, UV, optical, IR and submm/mm to have the overall multiwavelength understanding on these objects.","PeriodicalId":412578,"journal":{"name":"Communications of the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129347573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since 2007, all FBS low-resolution spectral plates have been digitized. The second version of the “Revised And Updated Catalogue of the First Byurakan Survey of Late-Type Stars”, containing data for 1471 M and C (carbon) stars (130 C-type giants, 1105 M– giants, and 236 M dwarfs) was generated. Among the 236 M dwarfs selected, 176 are new discoveries. The Gaia EDR3 G broad-band magnitudes are in the range 11.3 < G < 17.1. New distance information by Bailer-Jones et al. (2021), which is based on the EDR3 parallaxes are used to estimate the G-band absolute magnitudes for M dwarfs. 9 FBS M dwarfs (out of 176 new discovered) lie within 25pc of the Sun. The object FBS 0909-082 is more distant (r = 780˙pc) M dwarf among the sample considered, for which G-band absolute magnitude M(G)=9.18, M= 0.59MSun, L=0.13597 LSun, and Teff = 3844 K. This object can be classified as M1-M2 subtype dwarf. The nearest object is FBS0250+167, a M7 subtype dwarf with very high proper motion (5.13 arcsec/yr) and is located at 3.83pc from the Sun. The TESS estimated masses lie in the range 0.095(±0.02)M⊙ ≤M≤0.7(±0.1)M⊙ and Teff in the range 4000K < Teff < 2790K for FBSM dwarfs.

For such an analysis, the concept is adopted, according to which the entire baryonic Universe interacts with dark energy on all cosmic scales. It is shown that the interaction of baryonic objects with a carrier of dark energy inevitably leads to the injection of energy into the baryonic world with tangible physical consequences. The consequences seem quite dramatic, since the accumulation of energy in the baryonic world changes the virial theorem for all objects and systems, making them more and more unstable. This process of stability loss takes place at all spatial scales, including the micro world, where baryonic matter experiences the dark energy influence. It results decaying of all cosmic objects beginning with atomic nuclei and reaching the clusters of galaxies. Evolution under the influence of dark energy can take place in two different ways depending on the existence of the angular momentum of the body and its value. If the angular momentum is small, the object under the influence of dark energy obtains a more regular shape, otherwise at the equatorial plane would appear a structure consisting of less evolved matter.","PeriodicalId":412578,"journal":{"name":"Communications of the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115403086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In doing this, the test particle is considered as a luminous object, otherwise, if it is not, we assume that a light source is attached to it, which has neither mass nor volume. Then we utilize the general solution of independent definition of relative velocity of a luminous source in generic pseudo-Riemannian spacetime. As a corollary, we discuss the implications for the Minkowski metric, the test particle and observer at rest in an arbitrary stationary metric, the uniform gravitational field, the rotating reference frame, the Schwarzschild metric, the Kerr-type metrics, and the spatially homogeneous and isotropic Robertson-Walker (RW) spacetime of standard cosmological model. In the last case, it leads to cosmological consequence that the resulting, so-called, kinetic recession velocity of an astronomical object is always subluminal even for large redshifts of order one or more, so that it does not violate the fundamental physical principle of causality. We also calculate the measure of carrying away of a galaxy at redshift z by the expansion of space, which proves, in particular, that cosmological expansion of a flat 3D–space is fundamentally different from a kinematics of galaxies moving in a non-expanding flat 3D-space. So, it is impossible to mimic the true cosmological redshift by a Doppler effect caused by motion of galaxies in a non-expanding 3D-space, flat or curved. We also give a reappraisal of the `standard ́ kinematic interpretation of redshifts in RW spacetime as accumulated Doppler-shifts.","PeriodicalId":412578,"journal":{"name":"Communications of the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116930370","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is essential to use innovative algorithms and methods to process astronomical data and its variety. Descriptive Data Mining was used in this study to clarify the importance and effectiveness of obtaining common data between three binary star catalogs. These catalogues are The Ninth Catalogue of Spectroscopic Binary Orbits (SB9), The Sixth Catalog of Orbits of Visual Binary Stars (6COVBS), and The Fourth Catalog of Interferometry Measurements of Binary Stars (4CIMBS). We collect scattered data from the Ninth Catalog in its latest edition in 2021, which contains astronomical information for approximately 4021 binary systems. Then we search for the orbits of these binary systems in the 6COVBS to calculate the physical and the orbital properties with high accuracy. After that, we use the 4CIMBS to look for new observations of these stars in 66,225 resolved stars in its latest edition 2020 to calculate new orbits. As a result of this research, we have found about 600 standard systems among these catalogues, which are valuable data to calculate many physical properties of such binary stars, starting from individual masses, by the combination of the spectroscopic orbital solution with the visual orbital solutions. Furthermore, calculate the orbital parallax for each system with high accuracy compared with those from space missions such as Gaia and Hipparcos give us a new and essential method to verify the validity of the data from those satellites.","PeriodicalId":412578,"journal":{"name":"Communications of the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory","volume":"106 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116802152","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
