- Description:
- A catalog of 1990 stars on the Caby system is presented. The sample includes stars covering an extensive range in spectral type, luminosity class, and metallicity, as well as apparent magnitude. The hk indices are on the standard system defined in Anthony-Twarog et al. (1991AJ....101.1902A), while the V and (b-y) indices have been transformed to the system of Olsen (1993A&AS..102...89O), superseding the values in the original catalog of standard stars.

- Description:
- New photometry on the uvby Ca system is presented for over 300 stars. When combined with previous data, the sample is used to calibrate the metallicity dependence of the hk index for cooler, evolved stars. The metallicity scale is based upon the standardized merger of spectroscopic abundances from 38 studies since 1983, providing an overlap of 122 evolved stars with the photometric catalog. The hk index produces reliable abundances for stars in the [Fe/H] range from -0.8 to -3.4, losing sensitivity among cooler stars due to saturation effects at higher [Fe/H], as expected.

- Description:
- The use of model atmospheres for deriving stellar fundamental parameters, such as Teff, log(g), and [Fe/H], will increase as we find and explore extreme stellar populations where empirical calibrations are not yet available. Moreover, calibrations for upcoming large satellite missions of new spectrophotometric indices, similar to the uvby-Hbeta system, will be needed. We aim to test the power of theoretical calibrations based on a new generation of MARCS models by comparisons with observational photometric data. We calculated synthetic uvby-Hbeta colour indices from synthetic spectra. A sample of 367 field stars, as well as stars in globular clusters, is used for a direct comparison of the synthetic indices versus empirical data and for scrutizing the possibilities of theoretical calibrations for temperature, metallicity, and gravity. We show that the temperature sensitivity of the synthetic (b-y) colour is very close to its empirical counterpart, whereas the temperature scale based upon Hbeta shows a slight offset. The theoretical metallicity sensitivity of the m1 index (and for G-type stars its combination with c1) is somewhat higher than the empirical one, based upon spectroscopic determinations. The gravity sensitivity of the synthetic c1 index shows satisfactory behaviour when compared to observations of F stars. For stars cooler than the sun, a deviation is significant in the c1-(b-y) diagram. The theoretical calibrations of (b-y), (v-y), and c1 seem to work well for Pop II stars and lead to effective temperatures for globular cluster stars supporting recent claims that atomic diffusion occurs in stars near the turnoff point of NGC 6397. Synthetic colours of stellar atmospheres can indeed be used, in many cases, to derive reliable fundamental stellar parameters. The deviations seen when compared to observational data could be due to incomplete linelists but are possibly also due to the effects of assuming plane-parallel or spherical geometry and LTE.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present an extensive and up-to-date catalog of Galactic {beta} Cephei stars. This catalog is intended to give a comprehensive overview of observational characteristics of all known {beta} Cephei stars, covering information until 2004 June. Ninety-three stars could be confirmed to be {beta} Cephei stars. We use data from more than 250 papers published over the last nearly 100 years, and we provide over 45 notes on individual stars. For some stars we reanalyzed published data or conducted our own analyses. Sixty-one stars were rejected from the final {beta} Cephei list, and 77 stars are suspected to be {beta} Cephei stars. A list of critically selected pulsation frequencies for confirmed {beta} Cephei stars is also presented.

- Chemical abundances in 43 metal-poor stars
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have derived abundances of O, Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Fe, Ni and Ba for 43 metal-poor field stars in the solar neighbourhood, most of them subgiants or turn-off-point stars, with iron abundances [Fe/H] ranging from -0.4 to -3.0. About half of this sample has not been analysed spectroscopically in detail before. Effective temperatures were estimated from uvby photometry, and surface gravities primarily from Hipparcos parallaxes. The analysis is differential relative to the Sun, and carried out with plane-parallel MARCS models. Various sources of error are discussed and found to contribute a total error of about 0.1-0.2dex for most elements, while relative abundances, such as [Ca/Fe], are most probably more accurate. For the oxygen abundances, determined in an NLTE analysis of the 7774{AA} triplet lines, the errors may be somewhat larger.

- Description:
- Table A1 lists the Stromgren photometry together with color excesses, E(b-y), photometric metallicities, [Fe/H] , calculated from the calibrations of Schuster & Nissen (1989A&A...221...65S), and absolute magnitudes, M(V), and distances derived with the equations of Nissen & Schuster (1991A&A...251..457N) using the photometric metallicities. Table A2 contains coordinates, proper motions and radial velocities for the program stars as well as distances calculated from the calibrations Nissen & Schuster (1991A&A...251..457N) using the spectroscopic metallicities scaled to our photometric [Fe/H] system. Table A3 gives a list of the 209 spectral lines, which were analyzed, arranged element by element. The table contains the wavelength, the excitation potential of the lower level corresponding to the line, the gf-value, the enhancement factor of the classical van der Waals damping constant, the statistical weight of the upper level, and the equivalent widths measured for the two "standard" stars, HD 22879 and HD 76932. Table A4 contains the measured equivalent widths for all program stars. Table A5 gives abundance ratios and kinematical as well as orbital parameters for the program stars. First are given the data for the 16 disk stars, then follows the 14 halo stars.

- {Delta}a photometry of CP stars
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/441/631
- Date:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We have summarized all {Delta}a measurements for galactic field stars (1474 objects) from the literature published over more than two decades. These measurements were, for the first time, compiled and homogeneously analyzed. The {Delta}a intermediate band photometric system samples the depth of the 5200{AA} flux depression by comparing the flux at the center with the adjacent regions with bandwidths of 110{AA} to 230{AA}. Because it was slightly modified over the last three decades, we checked for systematic trends for the different measurements but found no correlations whatsoever. The {Delta}a photometric system is most suitable to detecting magnetic chemically peculiar (CP) stars with high efficiency, but is also capable of detecting a small percentage of non-magnetic CP objects. Furthermore, the groups of (metal-weak) lambda Bootis, as well as classical Be/shell stars, can be successfully investigated. In addition, we also analyzed the behaviour of supergiants (luminosity class I and II). On the basis of apparent normal type objects, the correlation of the 3sigma significance limit and the percentage of positive detection for all groups was derived.

- Eclipsing binaries uvbyHbeta photometry
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/326/1044
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Systematic differences in photometric stellar surface gravity determination are studied by means of the comparison with empirical values derived from detached double-lined eclipsing binaries. Photometric gravities were computed using Moon & Dworetsky (1985MNRAS.217..305M) grids based on Kurucz (1979ApJS...40....1K) atmosphere models, and empiric al gravities were taken from Andersen (1991A&ARv...3...91A). Individual Stroemgren colours and {beta} indices of each component of the binary system have to be taken into account to correctly analyze the observed differences. A compilation of data on a sample containing 30 detached double-lined eclipsing binaries with accurate (=~1-2%) determination of mass and radius and available uvbyH_{beta}_ photometric data is also presented. Correction of the differences in terms of T_eff_ and logg for the range 11000K<T_eff_<20000K reduces the mean residuals from 0.13dex to 0.07dex. For the range 7000K<T_eff_<8500K, the consideration of metallicity effects by means of {delta}m_o_ index improves the accuracy from 0.20dex to 0.09dex.
