- Description:
- The influence of stellar activity on the fundamental properties of stars around and below 1M_{sun}_ is not well understood. Accurate mass, radius, and abundance determinations from solar-type binaries exhibiting various levels of activity are needed for a better insight into the structure and evolution of these stars. We aim to determine absolute dimensions and abundances for the solar-type detached eclipsing binary V636Cen, and to perform a detailed comparison with results from recent stellar evolutionary models. uvby light curves and uvby{beta} standard photometry were obtained with the Stroemgren Automatic Telescope, radial velocity observations with the CORAVEL spectrometer, and high-resolution spectra with the FEROS spectrograph, all at ESO, La Silla. State-of-the-art methods were applied for the photometric and spectroscopic analyses.

- Description:
- We have carried out a detailed analysis of the IUE archival high resolution spectra of the classical nova V1974 Cyg 1992. The main UV resonance lines show P Cygni profiles in the first days, which change into symmetric pure emission lines, and then slowly become fainter and narrower. Lines of higher ionization species reach their peak luminosity later than those of low ionization.

- Velocities and BR photometry in LMC

- Description:
- We present the results of a large spectroscopic survey of the LMC, consisting of more than 1300 radial velocities measured accurately with the 2dF instrument during three observing compaigns 1999-2002. In this sample, no evidence is found for any extraneous, kinematically distinct population over the expected LMC and Galactic components. We discuss the significance of this finding for the LMC self-lensing models. The sample was randomly selected from three APM photographic plates with 16<=R<=18mag and -1.0<=Bj-R<=2.5mag. The fields were centered on previous microlensing events. The 1200V grating was used with 1.1{AA} per pixel resolution over 4625-5765{AA}. The zero point of the velocity of LMC K-type stars is set by cross-correlating with a K-type standard star. For sample stars of other spectral type we assume no systematic change of the peak of velocity distribution with spectral type.

- Description:
- Abell 1995 is a puzzling galaxy cluster hosting a powerful radio halo, but it has not yet been recognized as a obvious cluster merger, as usually expected for clusters with diffuse radio emission. We aim at an exhaustive analysis of the internal structure of Abell 1995 to verify that this cluster is really dynamically relaxed, as reported in previous studies. We base our analysis on new and archival spectroscopic and photometric data for 126 galaxies in the field of Abell 1995. The study of the hot intracluster medium was performed on X-ray archival data.

- Description:
- We report the determination of high-accuracy radial velocities for 306 members of the globular cluster M92 using the Hydra multiobject spectrograph on the WIYN telescope. We have concentrated on stars outside of the central region of the cluster, located up to 14.4' from the cluster center. Candidate members were selected for spectroscopy based on a photometric metallicity index determined from three-band Washington photometry, also obtained with the WIYN telescope.

- Velocities and duplicity of F-type dwarfs
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present new radial and rotational velocities for 595 nearby early F dwarfs, based on digital spectra cross-correlated with individually optimised synthetic template spectra. The selection of optimum templates, the determination of rotational velocities, and the extraction of velocities from the blended spectra of double-lined spectroscopic binaries are discussed in some detail. We find 170 spectroscopic binaries in the sample and determine orbits for 18 double-lined and 2 single-lined binaries, including some spectroscopic triples. 73 stars are listed with too rapid rotation to yield useful radial velocities (i.e. vsini>120km/s). We discuss the binary frequency in the sample, and the influence of unrecognised binaries on the definition of clean metallicity groups of young F dwarfs and the determination of their kinematical properties.

- Velocities and light curves of V350 Sgr

- Description:
- "The Cepheid Mass Problem" is one of the fundamental tests of the understanding of stellar evolution. One of the foundations of measured masses for Cepheids for this question is binary orbits. V350 Sgr is a classical Cepheid in a binary system. New radial velocity data for the system have been obtained over the last several years, and are used to update the orbit. The secondary in the system has previously had its orbital velocity amplitude measured in the ultraviolet with the Hubble Space Telescope. This amplitude has been combined with the new orbit and the adopted mass of the secondary resulting in a Cepheid mass of 5.0+/-0.8M_{sun}_.

- Velocities and Photometry for E and S0 galaxies

- Description:
- (Abstract from the paper) New spectroscopy and photometry have been obtained for 136 elliptical and S0 galaxies in the direction of the large-scale streaming flow attributed to the great attractor. Measurements of central velocity dispersion (sigma), total B magnitudes (B_T), the photometric parameter D_n, and the absorption-line index Mgi_2 are presented. Both internal and external comparisons indicate that measurements of log{sigma} are accurate to 0.05 dex, B_T to 0.15 mag, D_n to 0.015 dex, and Mg_2 to 0.017 mag. These data have been used in a previous paper by Dressler and Faber to estimate distances for these galaxies via the D_n - {sigma} relation. It is shown in this paper that the D_n - Mg_2 relation also predicts the same trends of peculiar velocity with distance, but with less accuracy. The relative accuracy of other distance indicators for elliptical galaxies is also discussed.

- Description:
- We report on a new, wide-field (20x20arcmin^2^), multicolour (UBVI), photometric campaign in the area of the nearby old open cluster NGC 2112. At the same time, we provide medium-resolution spectroscopy of 35 (and high-resolution of additional 5) red giant and turn-off stars. This material is analysed with the aim to update the fundamental parameters of this traditionally difficult cluster, which is very sparse and suffers from heavy field star contamination. Among the 40 stars with spectra, we identified 21 bona fide radial velocity members which allow us to put more solid constraints on the cluster's metal abundance, long suggested to be as low as the metallicity of globulars. As indicated earlier by us on a purely photometric basis, the cluster [Fe/H] abundance is slightly supersolar ([Fe/H]=0.16+/-0.03) and close to the Hyades value, as inferred from a detailed abundance analysis of three of the five stars with higher resolution spectra. Abundance ratios are also marginally supersolar. Based on this result, we revise the properties of NGC 2112 using stellar models from the Padova and Yale-Yonsei groups.

- Velocities and photometry in Trumpler 20

- Description:
- Trumpler 20 is an old open cluster (OC) located toward the Galactic centre, at about 3kpc from the Sun and ~7kpc from the Galactic centre. Its position makes this cluster particularly interesting in the framework of the chemical properties of the Galactic disc because very few old OCs reside in the inner part of the disc. For this reason it has been selected as a cluster target of the Gaia-ESO Survey, and spectra of many stars in the main sequence and red clump phases are now available. Moreover, although it has been studied by several authors in the past, no consensus on the evolutionary status of Tr 20 has been reached. The heavy contamination of field stars (the line of sight of Tr 20 crosses the Carina spiral arm) complicates the correct interpretation. Another interesting aspect of the cluster is that it shows a broadened main sequence turn-off and a prominent and extended red clump, characteristics that are not easily explained by classical evolutionary models. Exploiting both spectroscopic information from the Gaia-ESO Survey (and the ESO archive) and literature photometry, we obtain a detailed and accurate analysis of the properties of the cluster. We make use of the first accurate metallicity measurement ever obtained from several spectra of red clump stars, and of cluster membership determination using radial velocities. According to the evolutionary models adopted, we find that Tr 20 has an age in the range 1.35-1.66Gyr, an average reddening E(B-V) in the range 0.31-0.35mag, a distance modulus (m-M)_0_ between 12.64 and 12.72mag. The spectroscopic metallicity is [Fe/H]=+0.17dex. We discuss the structural properties of the object and constrain possible hypotheses for its broadened upper main sequence, by estimating the effect of differential reddening, and its extended red clump.
