- Description:
- We present a deep, wide-field optical survey of the young stellar cluster Alpha Per, in which we have discovered a large population of candidate brown dwarfs. Subsequent infrared photometric follow-up shows that the majority of them are probable or possible members of the cluster, reaching to a minimum mass of 0.035M_{sun}_.

- Title:
- BV(RI)_C_H{alpha} photometry of NGC 663
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present new BV(RI)_C_H{alpha} photometry of the young open cluster NGC 663. The H{alpha} photometry is complete down to magnitude R_C_=15.4, corresponding to spectral type A5 for the cluster members. This allows detection of mild and strong H{alpha} emission in all B-type stars in the cluster. In addition to the 22 Be stars known in the observed field of NGC 663, we discovered four new faint stars of this type. We find that Be stars in NGC 663 cover the whole range of the B spectral type. They are, however, most populous among stars with spectral types falling in the range between B0 and B3, where their fraction amounts to 31+/-8%. Among B-type stars later than B3, Be stars are much less abundant: only 7 out of 101 observed stars, that is, 7+/-3%, were detected. About 70% of the observed Be stars in NGC 663 show detectable variations of light. In the time interval covered by our observations, the ranges of the largest variations reach 0.4mag in the I_C_ band. By means of the isochrone fitting, we derived the cluster distance of 2.1kpc, age of 20-25Myr, and the mean colour excess E(R-I)_C_=0.54mag, with a ~0.1mag scatter due to differential reddening.

- BV(RI)_C_photometry of 77 Hyades stars
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/132/111
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- New BV(RI)C observations of 77 stars in the Hyades are reported and discussed. The new observations are used to test published magnitudes and color indices for that cluster. For values of (V-R)C and (R-I)C published previously by Taylor & Joner (1985AJ.....90..479T and 2005, Cat. <J/ApJS/159/100>), the tests reveal no detectable scale-factor problems. In addition, the tests show that possible zero-point corrections to the published data can be no larger than a few millimagnitudes. These test results indicate that future studies requiring precision photometry for Hyades stars would be well served by selecting data samples from sources as close as possible to the native Cousins system. Tests of B-V photometry published by Johnson & Knuckles (1955ApJ...122..209J) reveal a zero-point ambiguity of approximately 8mmag in the new data that will require further measurements to resolve.

- BVRI photometry of 4 open clusters
- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- CCD photometry of the galactic open clusters NGC 2627, NGC 5617, Pismis 7, and Ruprecht 75 is presented. For the first cluster, BV data are given, for the others the data are BV(RI)_c. The star coordinates are relative to the corresponding cluster center. The observations were carried out from the Complejo Astronomico El Leoncito (Argentina), and from Las Campanas (Chile). Each cluster was observed on two different nights; when possible, measurements for a given star were averaged. NGC 2627 observations were carried out from CASLEO on the nights of 7-8 January 1997 and 23-24 April 2001, in the BV filters. NGC 5617 data in the BVRI filters were obtained at Las Campanas on the nights 10-11 and 11-12 April 1996, and at CASLEO on the 1-2 April 2001 night. Pismis 7 was observed from Campanas on the 13-14 and 15-16 April 1996 nights (BVRI). Ruprecht 75 data in the BVRI filters were obtained at Las Campanas on the 12-13 April 1996 night, and at CASLEO on the 20-21 April 2001 night.

- CCD BVI photometry of 3 open clusters
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present BVI photometry for poorly known southern hemisphere open clusters: NGC 2425, Haffner 10 and Czernik 29. We have calculated the density profile and established the number of stars in each cluster. The colour-magnitude diagrams of the objects show a well-defined main sequence. However, the red giant clump is present only in NGC 2425 and Haffner 10. For these two clusters we estimated the age as 2.5+/-0.5Gyr assuming metallicity of Z=0.008. The apparent distance moduli are in the ranges 13.2<(m-M)_V<13.6 and 14.3<(m-M)_V<14.7, while heliocentric distances are estimated to be 2.9<d<3.8kpc and 3.1<d<4.3kpc, respectively for NGC 2425 and Haffner 10. The angular separation of 2.4deg (150pc at mean distance) may indicate a common origin of the two clusters.

- Description:
- CCD photometry of the galactic open clusters NGC 2658, NGC 2849, and NGC 3247 is presented. For the first two clusters, BV(RI)_c data are given, and for NGC 3247 the data are BV(I)_c. The observations were carried out from the Complejo Astronomico El Leoncito (Argentina), and from Las Campanas (Chile). Each cluster was observed on two different nights; when possible, measurements for a given star were averaged. NGC 2658 observations were carried out from CASLEO on the nights of 8-9 January 1997 and 18-19 April 2001, in the BVRI filters. NGC 2849 data in the BVRI filters were obtained at Las Campanas on the night 10-11 April 1996, and at CASLEO on 19-20 April 2001. NGC 3247 was observed at CASLEO on the nights 16-17 January 1996 (BV) and 1-2 April 1998 (BVI). The given star coordinates are relative to the corresponding cluster center.

- Title:
- CCD UBVIc photometry of Pismis 8 and Pismis 13
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- CCD UBVIc imaging photometry was carried out in the fields of the open clusters Pismis 8 and Pismis 13, located in the Vela-Puppis region in our Galaxy. MK spectral types have also been determined for a number of stars located in the fields of these two clusters which were used to secure membership among the brightest stars. Since our photometry goes to a fainter limit than previous studies we could provide better reddening, distance and age determinations. Both clusters are located close to the edge of the local arm in the third quadrant. Pismis 8 is a cluster about 5-7My old located at 2000pc from the Sun, while Pismis 13 was found at 2750pc with a probable age of about 100My. The estimate of the slopes of the mass functions in both cases yielded x=1.7 and x=2.1 for Pismis 8 and 13 respectively.

- LkH{alpha} 101 and the young cluster in NGC 1579

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The central region of the dark cloud L1482 is illuminated by LkH{alpha} 101, a heavily reddened (A_V_~10mag) high-luminosity (>=8x10^3^L_Sun_) star having an unusual emission-line spectrum plus a featureless continuum. About 35 much fainter (mostly between R=16 and >21) H{alpha} emitters have been found in the cloud. Their color-magnitude distribution suggests a median age of about 0.5Myr, with considerable dispersion. There are also at least five bright B-type stars in the cloud, presumably of about the same age; none show the peculiarities expected of HAeBe stars. Dereddened, their apparent V magnitudes lead to a distance of about 700pc. Radio observations suggest that the optical object LkH{alpha} 101 is in fact a hot star surrounded by a small H II region, both inside an optically thick dust shell.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- By collecting optical and infrared photometry and low-resolution spectroscopy, we have identified a large number of low-mass stars and brown dwarf candidates belonging to the young cluster (~5Myr) associated with the binary star {lambda} Orionis. The lowest mass object found is an M8.5 with an estimated mass of 0.02M_{Sun}_ (~0.01M_{Sun}_ for objects without spectroscopic confirmation). For those objects with spectroscopy, the measured strength of the H{alpha} emission line follows a distribution similar to other clusters with the same age range, with larger equivalent widths for cooler spectral types.
