cds-question@unistra.frvariable-starsultraviolet-astronomyphotometryWe present version 1.0 of the NASA Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) ultraviolet variability (GUVV) catalog, which contains information on 84 time-variable and transient sources gained with simultaneous near-ultraviolet (NUV) and far-ultraviolet (FUV) photometric observations. These time-variable sources were serendipitously revealed in the various 1.2{deg} diameter star fields currently being surveyed by the GALEX satellite in two ultraviolet bands (NUV 1750-2750{AA}, FUV 1350-1750{AA}) with limiting AB magnitudes of 23-25. The largest amplitude variable objects currently detected by GALEX are M dwarf flare stars, which can brighten by 5-10mag in both the NUV and FUV bands during short-duration (<500s) outbursts. Other types of large-amplitude ultraviolet variable objects include ab-type RR Lyrae stars, which can vary periodically by 2-5mag in the GALEX FUV band. This first GUVV catalog lists galactic positions and possible source identifications in order to provide the astronomical community with a list of time-variable objects that can now be repeatedly observed at other wavelengths.2005AJ....130..825Whttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/130/825CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toI/284 : The USNO-B1.0 Catalog (Monet+ 2003)II/259 : The SDSS Photometric Catalog, Release 3 (Abazajian+ 2005)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/130/825https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/130/825http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/130/825https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/130/825https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/130/825http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/130/825GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/AJ/130/825/table2 (GALEX Ultraviolet Variability catalog, V1.0.)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/130/825/table2?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/130/825/table2?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/130/825/table2?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true10.94958342.2819170.0055555555555555566/2624 2752 4165 4198 4201 5021 5056 5606 5624 5961 6047 6071 6090 7451 11252 11949 25083 25345 25463 26126 26151 26159 26243 26252 26264 26271 26972 27026 27247 27256 27258 27298 27318 27325 27368 28110 28122 35383 38664 388412.85864675833786e-19 4.653515163505597e-19https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/AJ/130/825?format=asciiUVOpticaldefaultJ/AJ/130/825/table2GALEX Ultraviolet Variability catalog, V1.0.recnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
