Title:
uvby{beta} photometry of h and chi Per
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present CCD uvby{beta} photometry for stars in the nuclei of the young double cluster {h} and {chi} Persei. We find that the reddening is highly variable through the {h} Per nucleus, increasing from west to east, with values ranging from E(b-y)=0.328+/-0.022 in the western part to E(b-y)=0.465+/-0.025 in the south-east. Towards {chi} Persei the reddening is fairly constant, with E(b-y)=0.398+/-0.025. Both clusters share a common distance modulus of 11.7+/-0.1mag, and an age of logt=7.10+/-0.05 years.

uvby{beta} photometry of lambda Bootis stars
Short Name:

Description:
Lambda Bootis stars comprise only a small number of all A-type stars and are characterized as nonmagnetic, Population I, late B to early F-type dwarfs which show significant underabundances of metals whereas the light elements (C, N, O and S) are almost normal abundant compared to the Sun. In the second paper on a spectroscopic survey for lambda Bootis stars, we present the spectral classifications of all program stars observed. These stars were selected on the basis of their Stromgren uvbybeta colors as lambda Bootis candidates. In total, 708 objects in six open clusters, the Orion OB1 association and the Galactic field were classified. In addition, nine serendipity non-candidates in the vicinity of our program stars as well as 15 Guide Star Catalogue stars were observed resulting in a total of 732 classified stars. The 15 objects from the Guide Star Catalogue are part of a program for the classification of apparent variable stars from the Fine Guidance Sensors of the Hubble Space Telescope. A grid of 105 MK standard as well as ``pathological'' stars guarantees a precise classification. A comparison of our spectral classification with the extensive work of Abt & Morrell (1995, Cat. <J/ApJS/99/135>) shows no significant differences. The derived types are 0.23+/-0.09 (rms error per measurement) subclasses later and 0.30+/-0.08 luminosity classes more luminous than those of Abt & Morrell (1995, Cat. <J/ApJS/99/135>)) based on a sample of 160 objects in common. The estimated errors of the means are +/-0.1 subclasses. The characteristics of our sample are discussed in respect to the distribution on the sky, apparent visual magnitudes and Stromgren uvbybeta colors. Table 2 lists all observed Galactic field stars.

uvby-beta photometry of metal-poor stars
Short Name:
II/180

Description:
Using the calibrations derived by Schuster and Nissen (=1989A&A...221...65S), the interstellar color excesses, E(b-y), and the metallicities, [Fe/H], have been determined for the 711 high velocity and metal-poor stars in the catalogue of uvby-beta photometry (=1988A&AS...73..225S). 220 of these listed in table1 turn out to be halo stars according to the criterion [Fe/H] <= -1.0. About 15% of the halo stars have colors that are significantly affected by interstellar reddening, i.e. E(b-y) > 0.025. The distributions in the c0-(b-y)0 diagram of the halo stars grouped according to [Fe/H], have well defined turn-off points. From the Teff values of these points a minimum age of 18-20 Gyr for the halo stars is determined. However, this age may be 2-3 Gyr too high due to a possible systematic error in Teff for the stellar models used. Relative ages of 77 halo stars in the turn-off region of the c0-(b-y)0 diagram are derived using the isochrones VandenBerg and Bell (=1985ApJS...58..561V). Assuming that the O/Fe abundance ratio is constant in halo stars, evidence of a cosmic age scatter of +/-2.5Gyr at a given metallicity is found. Furthermore, the mean age of the halo stars is found to decrease smoothly by about 3 Gyr from [Fe/H]= -2.0 to -1.0. These results suggest that a pressure-supported slow uniform collapse controlled the formation and early evolution of the Galaxy. However, the scenario of Searle and Zinn (=1978ApJ...225..357S) is also compatible with the results.

Description:
We present CCD uvby{beta} photometry for stars in the central area of the young open cluster NGC 663. We find that the reddening is highly variable, with values ranging from E(b-y)=0.639+/-0.032 in the central part to E(b-y)=0.555+/-0.038 in the south-east. The distance modulus is found to be 11.6+/-0.1mag. (2.1kpc), and the age logt=7.25+/-0.1 years (25+7/-5Myr).

Title:
uvbyCaH{beta} photometry of NGC 752
Short Name:

CDS
Description:
Precision uvbyCaH{beta} photometry of the nearby old open cluster, NGC752, is presented. The mosaic of CCD fields covers an area ~42' on a side with internal precision at the 0.005-0.010mag level for the majority of stars down to V~15. The CCD photometry is tied to the standard system using an extensive set of published photoelectric observations adopted as secondary standards within the cluster. Multicolor indices are used to eliminate as nonmembers a large fraction of the low probability proper-motion members near the faint end of the main sequence, while identifying 24 potential dwarf members between V=15.0 and 16.5, eight of which have been noted before from Vilnius photometry. From 68 highly probable F dwarf members, we derive a reddening estimate of E(b-y)=0.025+/-0.003 (E(B-V)=0.034+/-0.004), where the error includes the internal photometric uncertainty and the systematic error arising from the choice of the standard (b-y,H{beta}) relation. With reddening fixed, [Fe/H] is derived from the F dwarf members using both m_1_ and hk, leading to [Fe/H]=-0.071+/-0.014(sem) and -0.017+/-0.008(sem), respectively. Taking the internal precision and possible systematics in the standard relations into account, [Fe/H] for NGC 752 becomes -0.03+/-0.02. With the reddening and metallicity defined, we use the Victoria-Regina isochrones on the Stromgren system and find an excellent match for (m-M)=8.30+/-0.05 and an age of 1.45+/-0.05Gyr at the appropriate metallicity.

uvby phot. of suspected beta Pic-like stars
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We carried out a Stroemgren photometric survey of thirteen southern bright stars, including {beta} Pictoris itself, during three years, d'Astrophysique de Paris, in order to detect possible weak photometric variations. {beta} Pictoris presents a small long-term variation with a change of brightness by -2.1x10^-3^mag per year, over about two years from beginning of 1996, a situation relatively similar to the one about 18 years ago. Among the other stars, only HD 38392 presents weak photometric variations with a period of 21.4 days, probably related to the star rotation period. The negative result concerning photometric variations of all other stars suggests that those stars are actually really stable and strengthens the reality of the variations discovered in the case of {beta} Pictoris and HD 38392.

Title:
uvby photometry in NGC 7419
Short Name:
J/A+A/552/A92
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The open cluster NGC 7419 is known to contain five red supergiants and a very high number of Be stars. However, there are conflicting reports about its age and distance that prevent a useful comparison with other clusters. We intend to obtain more accurate parameters for NGC 7419, using techniques different from those of previous authors, so that it may be used as a calibrator for more obscured clusters. We obtained Stroemgren photometry of the open cluster NGC 7419, as well as classification spectroscopy of ~20 stars in the area. We then applied standard analysis and classification techniques.

uvby photometry of 4 CP stars

Description:
Differential Stroemgren uvby observations from the Four College Automated Photoelectric Telescope (FCAPT) are presented for the CP stars HR 149 and HR 7911 and the mCP stars HD 32966 and HD 171782. The Hg-Mn star HR 149 is found to be constant while HR 7911 with a period of 5.9617 days probably has a component which is a magnetic CP star. Improved periods were derived for HD 32966 and HD 171782 of 3.0927 and 4.4674 days, respectively. The former is a rather large amplitude mCP star. Both have at least one light curve different in shape from the others observed.
