I made this into a separate page so as not to ruin your discussion among your classes. :)

in the interest of getting information into the page, i am using minimal punctuation and grammar and am being perhaps too brief in some of these steps. let me know when something doesn't make sense.

Left as an exercise for the reader: Compare these steps to those we discussed in June in the Working with L1688 analysis. hint: those steps that seem too briefly summarized HERE have a LOT more explanation on that other page.


LDN 425

NB: discussed in june.

download bcd and pbcd data. likely only to use pbcd, but might as well get bcd now in case i have to reprocess it.

unzip it.

look at pipeline produced mosaics. they look fine. no need to reprocess.

make some 3-color mosaics. note bright red thing in depths of the stuff that is dark in the optical. no other screamingly obvious objects seen in 3-color mosaic as bright red things. another obj seen at 24, but not as red as the first obj.

look in literature for previously known objects. note that the red thing is the same object studied by connelley et al. (2007 AJ 133, 1528).

do photometry, a.k.a. run source extraction (manually on previously known obj, or automatically on everything.) i'm using apex and idl, but APT is also JUST FINE. check source extraction to make sure photometry makes sense and looks good. it does.

no additional very red sources found in data. all other sources detected at multiple bands seem to have zero spitzer color, e.g., they are not red. not all of these sources are necessarily stars, but if they are stars, then they don't have any infrared excess and thus we infer no circumstellar dust. HOWEVER, the one visibly red object is quite impressive and very red indeed.

taking a shot in the dark, i wrote connelley to see if we could get copies of his fits images from his paper. he obliged and sent them to us, so we now have very deep K-band imaging, much deeper than that from 2mass. but those data don't have any WCS information in the headers, so they are likely to be hard to use in MaxImDL.

when we measure spitzer fluxes, we get them back in uJy (or mJy or similar). the 2mass data come back to us in magnitudes. we can use both magnitudes and fluxes to assess how red this source is. it is useful thus to convert the measured spitzer fluxes to mags and the 2mass mags to fluxes. in june, we wrote a spreadsheet to do that. let me know if you need a copy, or write one from scratch using the stuff on the L1688 page (or, more specifically, pages it references).

download bcd and pbcd data. likely only to use pbcd, but might as well get bcd now in case i have to reprocess it.

unzip it.

look at pipeline produced mosaics. they look fine. no need to reprocess.

do photometry, a.k.a. run source extraction (i'm using apex and for irac, idl as well, but APT is also JUST FINE). check source extraction to make sure photometry makes sense and looks good. it does.

color-based selection of YSOs suggests the following candidates (NOTE THAT names are not static, and you should refer to these by their full coordinates until we establish a final real list):

981-01  20 59 39.5  +50 21 24   
981-02  20 59 47.9  +50 14 32   
981-03  21 00 17.3  +50 19 40   
981-04  21 00 17.4  +50 19 40   **
981-05  21 00 37.0  +50 20 58   **
981-06  21 00 46.3  +50 23 45   
981-07  21 00 49.1  +50 15 25   
981-08  21 00 49.5  +50 15 43   
981-09  21 00 54.7  +50 26 17   **

981-11  21 01 42.1  +50 13 05   
981-12  21 01 47.5  +50 18 22   

ones with "**" found in more than 1 CMD, suggests likely YSO?


go get literature. quanz paper leads us to feigelson and kriss paper. feigelson and kriss report only names and finder charts; need to go to 2mass to extract high-quality modern coordinates. use finder chart to reconstruct whch obj and make note of coords and JHK mags. can find all but one based on finder chart, comparing images. got new 2mass coords for all of those:

find 9 with counterparts in our images, none of which are disk candidates based on above:

fk 4  21 01 13.2  +50 24 07
fk21  21 01 22.7  +50 21 36

haven't made SEDs of any of these yet. will need to make for you the CMDs I used to pick obj above, and to see where the fk objects fall in the same CMDs. soon!

also need to copy here the full photometry i have for these objects. i have it, just haven't copied it here yet, sorry. will want to compare your photometry and mine, as we did for the other cloud in june.
