The Digitized First Byurakan Survey Data Base. Late-Type Stars Candidates. New Confirmations. I

Résumé

The Digitized First Byurakan Survey (DFBS) is the digitized version of the First Byurakan Survey (FBS, or Markarian survey). The FBS was the first systematic survey of the extragalactic sky. This objective-prism survey was carried out in 1965-1980 by B.E.Markarian and his colleagues using the 1 m Schmidt telescope of the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory and resulted in discovery of 1517 UVX-excess (Markarian) galaxies. FBS low-resolution spectral plates have been used for a long time to search and study faint Late-Type Stars (LTS, M-type and C stars) at high Galactic latitudes. A total of 18 lists of the FBS LTS were published between 1990 and 2016. We report newly confirmed C and M giants, and also large amount of M dwarfs based on the Gaia DR3 BP/RP low-resolution spectroscopic data base. Some of the newly confirmed M dwarfs presents binary systems. Some of them are new eclipsing binaries. In our previous studies of the DFBS spectral plates, all were presented as LTS candidates. Gaia high-accuracy astrometric and photometric data and Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) data are used to characterize these new confirmed LTS. TESS phase-dependent light curves show rotational modulations and flares for many new M dwarfs. This confirmations of the large number of completely new objects represents a very significant extension in the census of M giants, faint N-type Asymptotic Giant Branch C stars, CH-type C giants at high Galactic latitudes, and M dwarfs in the solar vicinity. Some objects are located more than 7 kpc from the Galactic plane. Ultimately, we aim to present value-added catalog and update the FBS LTS catalog. Note that a large amount of the blue stellar objects with UVX-excess and numerous of emission line objects were also detected.
