- Description:
- We present the current results from our ongoing radial-velocity (RV) survey of the intermediate-age (2.4Gyr) open cluster NGC 6819. Using both newly observed and other available photometry and astrometry, we define a primary target sample of 1454 stars that includes main-sequence, subgiant, giant, and blue straggler stars, spanning a magnitude range of 11<=V<=16.5 and an approximate mass range of 1.1-1.6M_{sun}_. Our sample covers a 23 arcminute (13pc) square field of view centered on the cluster. We have measured 6571 radial velocities for an unbiased sample of 1207 stars in the direction of the open cluster NGC 6819, with a single-measurement precision of 0.4km/s for most narrow-lined stars. We use our RV data to calculate membership probabilities for stars with >=3 measurements, providing the first comprehensive membership study of the cluster core that includes stars from the giant branch through the upper main sequence. We identify 480 cluster members. Additionally, we identify velocity-variable systems, all of which are likely hard binaries that dynamically power the cluster.

- Description:
- NGC 2345 is a young open cluster hosting seven blue and red supergiants, low metallicity and a high fraction of Be stars which makes it a privileged laboratory to study stellar evolution. We aim to improve the determination of the cluster parameters and study the Be phenomenon. Our objective is also to characterise its seven evolved stars by deriving their atmospheric parameters and chemical abundances. We performed a complete analysis combining for the first time ubvy photometry with spectroscopy as well as Gaia Data Release 2. We obtained spectra with classification purposes for 76 stars and high-resolution spectroscopy for an in-depth analysis of the blue and red evolved stars. We identify a new red supergiant and 145 B-type likely members within a radius of 18.7+/-1.2arcmin, which implies an initial mass, M_cl_~5,200M_{sun}_. We find a distance of 2.5+/-0.2kpc for NGC 2345, placing it at R_GC_=10.2+/-0.2kpc. Isochrone fitting supports an age of 56+/-13Ma, implying masses around 6.5M_{sun}_ for the supergiants. A high fraction of Be stars (~10%) is found. From the spectral analysis we estimate for the cluster an average v_rad}_=+58.6+/-0.5km/1 and a low metallicity, [Fe/H]=-0.28+/-0.07. We also have determined chemical abundances for Li, O, Na, Mg, Si, Ca, Ti, Ni, Rb, Y, and Ba for the evolved stars. The chemical composition of the cluster is consistent with that of the Galactic thin disc. One of the K supergiants, S50, is a Li-rich star, presenting an A(Li)~2.1. An overabundance of Ba is found, supporting the enhanced s-process. NGC 2345 has a low metallicity for its Galactocentric distance, comparable to typical LMC stars. It is massive enough to serve as a testbed for theoretical evolutionary models for massive intermediate-mass stars.

- NGC2264 structure and star formation history

- Description:
- Reconstructing the structure and history of young clusters is pivotal to understanding the mechanisms and timescales of early stellar evolution and planet formation. Recent studies suggest that star clusters often exhibit a hierarchical structure, possibly resulting from several star formation episodes occurring sequentially rather than a monolithic cloud collapse. We aim to explore the structure of the open cluster and star-forming region NGC 2264 (~3Myr), which is one of the youngest, richest and most accessible star clusters in the local spiral arm of our Galaxy; we link the spatial distribution of cluster members to other stellar properties such as age and evolutionary stage to probe the star formation history within the region. We combined spectroscopic data obtained as part of the Gaia-ESO Survey (GES) with multi-wavelength photometric data from the Coordinated Synoptic Investigation of NGC 2264 (CSI 2264) campaign. We examined a sample of 655 cluster members, with masses between 0.2 and 1.8M_{sun}_ and including both disk-bearing and disk-free young stars. We used Teff estimates from GES and g,r,i photometry from CSI 2264 to derive individual extinction and stellar parameters.

- Description:
- This paper presents optical (ugriH{alpha})-infrared (JHKs, 3.6-8.0um) photometry and Gaia astrometry of 55 Classical T-Tauri stars (CTTS) in the star-forming region Sh 2-012 and its central cluster NGC 6383. The sample was identified based on photometric H{alpha} emission linewidths, and has a median age of 2.8+/-1.6Myr, with a mass range between 0.3 and 1M_{sun}_. 94 per cent of CTTS with near-infrared cross-matches fall on the near-infrared T-Tauri locus, with all stars having mid-infrared photometry exhibiting evidence for accreting circumstellar discs. CTTS are found concentrated around the central cluster NGC 6383, and towards the bright rims located at the edges of Sh 2-012. Stars across the region have similar ages, suggestive of a single burst of star formation. Mass accretion rates dMacc/dt) estimated via H{alpha} and u-band line intensities show a scatter (0.3dex) similar to spectroscopic studies, indicating the suitability of H{alpha} photometry to estimate dMacc/dt. Examining the variation of dMacc/dt with stellar mass (M*), we find a smaller intercept in the (dMacc/dt)-M* relation than oft-quoted in the literature, providing evidence to discriminate between competing theories of protoplanetary disc evolution.

- CDS
- Description:
- NGC 5822 is a richly populated, moderately nearby, intermediate-age open cluster covering an area larger than the full moon on the sky. A CCD survey of the cluster on the UBVI and uvbyCaH{beta} systems shows that the cluster is superposed upon a heavily reddened field of background stars with E(B-V)>0.35mag, while the cluster has small and uniform reddening at E(b-y)=0.075+/-0.008mag or E(B-V)=0.103+/-0.011mag, based upon 48 and 61 probable A and F dwarf single-star members, respectively. The errors quoted include both internal photometric precision and external photometric uncertainties.

- Description:
- We present CCD UBVI photometry of the intermediate old open cluster NGC 2660, covering from the red giant region to about seven magnitudes below the main sequence turn-off. Using the synthetic colour-magnitude diagram method, we estimate in a self-consistent way values for distance modulus [(m-M)_0_~12.2], reddening [E(B-V)~0.40], metallicity ([Fe/H] about solar) and age (t<=1Gyr). A 30 per cent population of binary stars turns out to be probably present.

- Description:
- We present results of variability search in the field of the young open cluster NGC 1502. Eight variable stars were discovered. Of six other stars in the observed field that were suspected for variability, we confirm variability of two, including one beta Cep star, NGC 1502-26. The remaining four suspects were found to be constant in our photometry. In addition, UBVIc photometry of the well-known massive eclipsing binary SZ Cam was obtained.

- NGC 6231 UBVRI and H{alpha} photometry
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- UBVRI and H{alpha} CCD photometry has been obtained for the young open cluster NGC 6231. From the R-H{alpha} color, a measure of the H{alpha} emission, we find 12 pre-main-sequence (PMS) members and seven possible PMS members in the cluster. Applying recent stellar evolutionary tracks and PMS evolutionary tracks, we derive the age, age spread, and initial mass function of the cluster. The initial mass function of NGC 6231 is a Gaussian with a turnover at logm~0.4 (m~2.5M_{Sun}_) and shows an abrupt decrease in the number of low-mass stars. Possible reasons for the suppression of low-mass star formation and star formation processes are discussed.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- Results of a ground-based optical monitoring campaign on NGC 5548 in June 1998 are presented. The broad-band fluxes (U, B, V), and the spectrophotometric optical continuum flux F_{lambda}_ (5100{AA}) monotonically decreased in flux while the broad-band R and I fluxes and the integrated emission-line fluxes of H{alpha} and H{beta} remained constant to within 5%. On June 22, a short continuum flare was detected in the broad band fluxes. It had an amplitude of about ~18% and it lasted only =~90 min. The broad band fluxes and the optical continuum F_{lambda}_ (5100{AA}) appear to vary simultaneously with the EUV variations. No reliable delay was detected for the broad optical emission lines in response to the EUVE variations. Narrow H{beta} emission features predicted as a signature of an accretion disk were not detected during this campaign. However, there is marginal evidence for a faint feature at {lambda}=~4962{AA} with FWHM=~6{AA} redshifted by {Delta}v=~1100km/s with respect to H{beta}_narrow_.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present CCD UBVRI photometry of the field of the open cluster NGC 6866. Structural parameters of the cluster are determined utilizing the stellar density profile of the stars in the field. We calculate the probabilities of the stars being physical members of the cluster, using their astrometric data, and perform further analyses using only the most probable members. The reddening and metallicity of the cluster were determined by independent methods. The LAMOST spectra and the ultraviolet excess of the F- and G-type main-sequence stars in the cluster indicate that the metallicity of the cluster is about the solar value. We estimated the reddening E(B-V)=0.074+/-0.050mag using the U-B versus B-V two-colour diagram. The distance modula, the distance and the age of NGC 6866 were derived as {mu}=10.60+/-0.10mag, d=1189+/-75pc and t=813+/-50Myr, respectively, by fitting colour-magnitude diagrams of the cluster with the PARSEC isochrones. The Galactic orbit of NGC 6866 indicates that the cluster is orbiting in a slightly eccentric orbit with e=0.12. The mass function slope x=1.35+/-0.08 was derived by using the most probable members of the cluster.
