- Description:
- We present results from a continuing campaign to secure deep multi-colour CCD sequences for photoelectric calibration in UK Schmidt fields with galactic latitudes |b|>50{deg}. In this paper, we present UBVR photometry in 12 fields and BR photometry in a further 14 fields observed within UK Schmidt survey fields centered at {delta}=-30{deg}. Our observations were carried out with the 0.9m Telecope at the Cerro-Tololo Inter-American Observatory.

- Description:
- We present photometry and a preliminary interpretation of a UBVR survey of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, which covers 14.5 deg^2^ and 7.2deg^2^, respectively. This study is aimed at obtaining well-calibrated data on the brighter, massive stars, complementing recent, deeper CCD surveys. Our catalog contains 179,655 LMC and 84,995 SMC stars brighter than V~18.0, and is photometrically complete to U~B~V~15.7 and R~15.2, although stars in crowded regions are selectively missed. We compare our photometry to that of others, and describe the need for gravity-dependent corrections to our CCD U-band photometry. We provide a preliminary cross-reference between our catalog stars and the stars with existing spectroscopy.

- Description:
- We present precision CCD light curves, a period study, photometrically derived standard magnitudes, and a five-color simultaneous Wilson code solution of the totally eclipsing, yet shallow amplitude (Av~0.4mag) eclipsing, binary V1853 Orionis. It is determined to be an extreme mass ratio, q=0.20, W-type W UMa overcontact binary. From our standard star observations, we find that the variable is a late-type F spectral-type dwarf, with a secondary component of about 0.24 solar masses (stellar type M5V). Its long eclipse duration (41 minutes) as compared to its period, 0.383-days, attests to the small relative size of the secondary. Furthermore, it has reached a Roche lobe fill-out of ~50% of its outer critical lobe as it approaches its final stages of binary star evolution, that of a fast spinning single star. Finally, a summary of about 25 extreme mass ratio solar-type binaries is given.

- Description:
- We present homogeneous, standardized UBV(RI)C photometry for over 700 nearby stars selected on the basis of Hipparcos parallaxes. Additionally, we list JHK photometry for about half of these stars, as well as L photometry for 86 of the brightest. A number of stars with peculiar colours or anomalous locations in various colour-magnitude diagrams are discussed.

- UBVRcIc photometry in fields of Seyfert galaxies
- Short Name:
- J/AN/329/418
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present UBVRcIc magnitudes of 49 comparison stars in the fields of the Seyfert galaxies Mrk 335, Mrk 79, Mrk 279, Mrk 506, 3C 382, 3C 390.3, NGC 6814, Mrk 304, Ark 564, and NGC 7469 in order to facilitate the photometric monitoring of these objects; 36 of the stars have not been calibrated before. The comparison stars are situated in 5x5arcmin fields centred on the Seyfert galaxies, their V band flux ranges from 11.7 to 18.2mag with a median value of 16.3mag, and their B-V colour index ranges from 0.4 to 1.6mag with a median value of 0.8mag. The median errors of the calibrated UBVRCIC magnitudes are 0.08, 0.04, 0.03, 0.04, and 0.06mag, respectively. Comparison stars were calibrated for the first time in three of the fields (Mrk 506, 3C 382, and Mrk 304). The comparison sequences in the other fields were improved in various aspects. Extra stars were calibrated in four fields (Mrk 335, Mrk 79, NGC 6814, and NGC 7469) most of these stars are fainter and are situated closer to the Seyfert galaxies compared to the existing comparison stars. The passband coverage of the sequences in five fields (Mrk 335, Mrk 79, Mrk 279, NGC 6814, and Ark 564) was complemented with the U band.

- Description:
- We report broadband UBV and/or BVR_C_I_C_ CCD photometry for a total of 1857 stars in the thick-disk and halo populations of the Galaxy. The majority of our targets were selected as candidate field horizontal-branch or other A-type stars (FHB/A, N=576), or candidate low-metallicity stars (N=1221), from the HK and Hamburg/ESO objective-prism surveys. Similar data for a small number of additional stars from other samples are also reported.

- Description:
- We have compared the results of multicolor UBVR and H{alpha} photometry for 169 young star-formation complexes in five galaxies using a grid of evolutionary models for young star clusters. The ages and interstellar absorptions are estimated for 102 star-formation complexes with the standard uncertainties {sigma}_t_=0.30dex and {sigma}_AV_=0.45mag. The accuracies of these parameters were verified using numerical simulations.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- New UBVRI and H{alpha} photometry has been obtained for the young open cluster NGC 6530 located 10' east of the Lagoon Nebula (M8). We found 37 pre-main-sequence (PMS) stars with H{alpha} emission and nine PMS candidates using the R-H{alpha} color, a measure of H{alpha} emission. From this new photometry we derived the cluster parameters (V_0_-M_V_=11.25+/-0.1mag and E(B-V)=0.35mag), typical age (1.5Myr), and an age spread of about 5Myr. We confirmed the presence of a small amount of differential reddening across the cluster. We also verified the abnormal reddening law for the cluster, especially for a heavily embedded O7 V star, Herschel 36. Comparisons were made for several PMS evolution models with regard to the resulting age distribution and the initial mass function.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We have monitored the AGN 3C 390.3 between 1995 and 2000. A historical B-band light curve dating back to 1966 shows a large increase in brightness during 1970-1971, followed by a gradual decrease down to a minimum in 1982. During the 1995-2000 lapse the broad H{beta} emission and the continuum flux varied by a factor of ~3. Two large amplitude outbursts, of different duration, in continuum and light were observed i.e.: in October 1994 a brighter flare that lasted ~1000 days and in July 1997 another one that lasted ~700 days were detected. The response time lag of the emission lines relative to flux changes of the continuum has been found to vary with time i.e. during 1995-1997 a lag of about 100 days is evident, while during 1998-1999 a double valued lag of ~100 days and ~35 days is present in our data. The flux in the H{beta} wings and line core vary simultaneously, a behavior indicative of predominantly circular motions in the broad line region. Important changes of the H{beta} emission profiles were detected: at times, we found profiles with prominent asymmetric wings, like those normaly seen in Sy1s, while at other times, we observe profiles with weak, almost symmetrical wings, similar to those of Sy1.8s.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Optical UBVRI photometric measurements using the Faulkes Telescope North were taken in early 2011 and combined with 2MASS JHK_s_ and WISE infrared photometry as well as UCAC4 proper motion data in order to estimate the main parameters of the galactic open cluster NGC 2215 of which large uncertainty exists in the current literature. Fitting a King model we estimate a core radius of 1.12'+/-0.04'(0.24+/-0.01pc) and a limiting radius of 4.3'+/-0.5'(0.94+/-0.11pc) for the cluster. The results of isochrone fits indicates an age of log(t)=8.85+/-0.10 with a distance of d=790+/-90pc, a metallicity of [Fe/H]=-0.40+/-0.10dex, and a reddening of E(B-V)=0.26+/-0.04. A proportion of the work in this study was undertaken by Australian and Canadian upper secondary school students involved in the Space to Grow astronomy education project, and is the first scientific publication to have utilized our star cluster photometry curriculum materials.
