- Description:
- We derive the basic physical parameters of the field double-mode RR Lyrae star BS Com from its observed periods and the requirement of consistency between the pulsational and evolutionary constraints. We performed a standard frequency analysis on the V data by discrete Fourier transformation. We derived P0=0.48791d and P1=0.36307d for the periods of the fundamental and the first overtone modes, respectively.

- BV(RI)_C_photometry of 77 Hyades stars

- Date:

- Publisher:

- 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.

- Description:
- We present the most continuous data base of optical multiband data ever published on the BL Lacertae object ON 231 (W Com). The data have been collected during an intensive and coordinated BV(RI)c monitoring campaign carried out in the period from March 1994 to March 1997. During our campaign, the source brightness was at the highest level ever observed. The light curve shows a complex structure, characterized by the presence of three major outbursts having the observed maxima in March 1995, February 1996, and January 1997, when ON 231 reached its historical maximum (B~=14.2). Variability on time scales from a few hours up to a month have frequently been observed and the light curve seems to be the superposition of many flares with different amplitudes and time scales. The broad-band optical spectral energy distribution is characterized by a spectral slope which correlates with the flux level. In particular, the higher is the flux the flatter is the spectrum.

- Description:
- We present the results of the optical monitoring of the BL Lac object ON 231 from 1997 to the spring 2001, including the large outburst of spring 1998. After this event the mean source luminosity declined slowly and continued to show changes greater than one magnitude. A simple analysis of the variability time scales in the best-sampled segments of the light curve reveals that the luminosity changes were faster during the burst and slowed down in the subsequent years.

- Description:
- Table 2 reports the journal of observations. For each date the measured magnitudes and their uncertainties in the four filters together with the used telescope are given. In some occasions several images were made in the course of the same night to search for intraday variability; these nights are indicated by an asterisk. The magnitude uncertainties have been evaluated by taking into account the mean dispersion of the internal error, but not the errors on the absolute calibration.

- Description:
- We address the topic of the intra-night optical variability of the BL Lac object S5 0716+714. To this purpose a long-term observational campaign was carried out, from 1996 to 2003, which allowed the collection of a very large data set, containing 10675 photometric measurements obtained in 102 nights. The source brightness varied in a range of about 2mag, although the majority of the observations were performed when it was in the range 13.0<R<13.75. Variability time scales were estimated from the rates of magnitude variation, which were found to have a distribution function well fitted by an exponential law with a mean value of 0.027mag/h, corresponding to an e-folding time scale of the flux {tau}_F_=37.6h. The highest rates of magnitude variation were around 0.10-0.12mag/h and lasted less than 2h. These rates were observed only when the source had an R magnitude <13.4, but this finding cannot be considered significant because of the low statistical occurrence. The distribution of {tau}_F_ has a well-defined modal value at 19h. Assuming the recent estimate of the beaming factor {delta} about 20, we derived a typical size of the emitting region of about (5x10^16^)/(1+z)cm. The possibility of searching for a possible correlation between the mean magnitude variation rate and the long-term changes in the velocity of the superluminal components in the jet is discussed.

- Description:
- The results from work done to extend the Johnson-Cousins BVRI photometric standard sequence to faint levels of V~21mag in compact fields is presented. Such calibration and extension of sequences is necessary to fill a calibration gap if reliable photometry from modest aperture telescopes in space (e.g., the Hubble Space Telescope) or terrestrial telescopes with apertures exceeding 4m is to be done. Sequences like the ones presented here, which cover a large range in brightness as well as color, will allow photometric calibration to be done efficiently and will also make such work less prone to systematic sources of error. Photometry of stars in approximately 10'x10' fields around three globular clusters (NGC 2419, Pal 4, and Pal 14) are presented from data acquired over several photometric nights. In each field, several stars are measured in B, V, R, and I passbands, with standard errors in the mean less than 0.015mag from random errors, to levels fainter than V=21mag.

- 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.

- 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:
- We present new astrometric and photometric data for 253 visual double stars of the "intermediate" class, i.e. with angular separations in the range 1 to 15 arcsec. The multi-colour observations were obtained in 1992-94 as part of the ESO Key Programme "Visual Double Stars" performed at La Silla Observatory (Chile). Differential magnitudes and colours have been secured in a systematic way while component magnitudes and colour indices have been determined in the V and I passbands of the Cousins standard system in good photometric conditions only. Internal and mean external errors are respectively smaller than 0.01mag and a few hundred of a magnitude (0.02 to 0.03mag). Relative positions are obtained as a by-product with internal errors of the order of 0.006arcsec in angular separation and 0.08{deg} in position angle. Final accuracies are thoroughly discussed: we illustrate the overall excellent quality of the data and estimate the quality degradation for angular separations barely larger than the width of the seeing disk.
