A catalogue is given of all BD and CD stars north of -33deg which are surrounded by reflection nebulosity visible on both the blue and red prints of the Palomar Sky Survey. The nearer reflection nebulae lie predominantly along Gould's Belt, whereas the more distant ones are concentrated to the galactic plane. The data outline 13 associations of reflection nebulae, some of which coincide with known OB or T associations. Attention is drawn to the fact that most reflection nebulae are illuminated by the integrated light of the Milky Way. The integrated radiation will be more intense above and below the galactic plane then in the galactic plane where the nuclear bulge of the Galaxy and most of the disk are obscured by interstellar absorption.
We present library of meteor spectra in the range 3700-8800{AA} including sporadic meteors, minor showers and major showers in the magnitude range from +2 to -3, corresponding to meteoroid sizes from 1mm to 10mm. Parallel double-station video observations allowed us to compute heliocentric orbits for all meteors. Most observations were performed during the periods of activity of major meteor showers in the years between 2006 and 2012. Spectra are classified according to relative intensities of the low-temperature emission lines of Mg, Na, and Fe.
Table1 lists all white dwarf stars, both previously-catalogued and newly discovered, which have been detected in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey. The positions and count rates of the X-ray sources associated with each star are given, as well as spectral types and other star names for those stars which have been previously catalogued. Table2 lists distances estimated via Balmer line profile fitting, corrected (for IS absorption) X-ray luminosities, and each star's contribution to the X-ray luminosity function for all DA white dwarfs which were detected in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey.
A search for RR Lyrae stars has been conducted in the publicly available data of the Northern Sky Variability Survey. Candidates have been selected by the statistical properties of their variation; the standard deviation, skewness and kurtosis with appropriate limits determined from a sample 314 known RRab and RRc stars listed in the General Catalogue of Variable Stars. From the period analysis and light-curve shape of over 3000 candidates 785 RR Lyrae have been identified of which 188 are previously unknown. The light curves were examined for the Blazhko effect and several new stars showing this were found. Six double-mode RR Lyrae stars were also found of which two are new discoveries. Some previously known variables have been reclassified as RR Lyrae stars and similarly some RR Lyrae stars have been found to be other types of variable, or not variable at all.
A surveys of compact (<1") radio sources exhibiting interplanetary scintillation were conducted at 102MHz on the Large Phased Array of the Lebedev Institute of Physics. The surveys cover a 0.047 steradian area of the 7C survey in the direction RA=6h28m and DE=45{deg} and a 0.097-steradian area in the direction RA=10h28m and DE=41{deg}. A total of 395 scintillating radio sources in a 0.144 sr region were detected.
A list of 959 Seyfert galaxies whose data were obtained up to the beginning of 1987 is compiled. Coordinates, redshifts, UBVR-photoelectric magnitudes, absolute magnitudes, morphological types, fluxes in H and [OIII] 5007, JHKLN-fluxes, far-infrared (IRAS) fluxes, radio-fluxes at 6 and 11 centimeters, monochromatic X-ray fluxes in 0.3-3.5 and 2-10 keV and some other data are presented in six Tables. This Catalogue data may be used as basic ones for some statistical investigations. References contain 957 entries.

Description:
This "Catalogue of Southern Peculiar Galaxies and Associations" is a complete and detailed catalogue of all the most interesting galaxies and most striking apparent associations of galaxies in the Southern sky. The printed catalogue is made of two volumes: Volume I which lists the Peculiar Galaxies, and Volume II which contains photographs of galaxies which are representative of the various Categories used in the Classification scheme presented in Volume I.
We submit the compiled catalogue of effective temperatures, surface gravities, abundances of iron and magnesium, distances, velocity components, and orbital parameters for stars of solar vicinity. Atmospheric parameters and iron abundances was determined by averaging of published values, which was found from synthetic analysis of high resolution spectra on the basis of 1809 determination from 31 publications. Relative magnesium abundances for 876 dwarfs and subgiants were determined as a result of three-step iteration procedure of averaging with giving weight to each publication and each individual determination. The systematic shifts for each scale relative to reduced main scale was taken into account. We suppose that survey completeness of publications with volume more than 5 stars up to December 2003 is 90%. Spatial velocity components for most majority stars were determined on the stellar data from present day high-precision observations. Galactic orbital parameter were calculated using the Galactic model, which includes a spherical bulge, disk, and extended massive halo.
Using the recently published Gaia second data release that includes measurements of the mean radial velocity of about 7.2 million stars, we performed a systematic comparison with other existing radial velocity catalogs to search for variations in the radial velocity measurements, with the goal that detected differences may indicate that these stars are possibly spectroscopic binary stars with only one visible component (SB1). We present a catalog of spectroscopic binary candidate stars containing 35246 stars, compiled to encourage follow-up observations obtaining spectra at different epochs of orbits of these stars to verify their binarity and to study these systems using radial velocity curves. Comparing the Gaia DR2 database with the K-M dwarf catalog, we found 16 stars that show radial velocity variations. In a comparison with the Pulkovo radial velocity catalog of Hipparcos stars, we identified a total of 539 SB1 candidate stars. In the largest radial velocity catalog available, the radial velocity experiment (RAVE) catalog, we found a total of 34691 stars that show radial velocity variations when compared to the Gaia DR2 data.
