- 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.

- 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.

- Description:
- We present an optical study of four 45'x45' fields centered ~0.5{deg} east, west, north, and south of the Orion Nebula Cluster center. We have measured V and I_C_ photometry for ~5000 stars, and U photometry for ~1600 of these. We have obtained spectral classifications for ~300 of the stars with UVI_C_ photometry plus an additional ~200 stars located outside the area of our photometric survey. Dereddened photometry allows us to investigate the evidence for circumstellar accretion disks from excess emission at ultraviolet wavelengths, as well as the mass and age distributions of our sample. We find ~230 active accretion disk candidates and estimate the accretion disk fraction at >~40%. We use the magnitude of the ultraviolet excess to infer disk accretion rates. The mass accretion rate (dM/dt) decreases slowly with age over the limited age range spanned by our data, 1-3Myr, and increases slowly with mass over the limited mass range 0.2-1.2 M_{sun}_.

- Color-temperature relations of M giants

- Description:
- As part of a project to model the integrated spectra and colors of elliptical galaxies through evolutionary synthesis, we have refined our synthetic spectrum calculations of M giants. After critically assessing three effective temperature scales for M giants, we adopted the relation of Dyck et al. for our models. Using empirical spectra of field M giants as a guide, we then calculated MARCS stellar atmosphere models (Gustafsson et al. 1975; Bell et al. 1976) and SSG synthetic spectra (Bell & Gustafsson 1978; Gustafsson & Bell 1979) of these cool stars, adjusting the band absorption oscillator strengths of the TiO bands to better reproduce the observational data. The resulting synthetic spectra are found to be in very good agreement with the K-band spectra of stars of the appropriate spectral type taken from Kleinmann & Hall (1986) as well. Spectral types estimated from the strengths of the TiO bands and the depth of the band head of CO near 2.3 {mu}m quantitatively confirm that the synthetic spectra are good representations of those of field M giants. The broadband colors of the models match the field relations of K and early-M giants very well; for late-M giants, differences between the field star and synthetic colors are probably caused by the omission of spectral lines of VO and H_2_O in the spectrum synthesis calculations. Here, we present four grids of K-band bolometric corrections and colors - Johnson U-V and B-V, Cousins V-R and V-I, Johnson-Glass V-K, J-K, and H-K, and CIT/CTIO V-K, J-K, H-K, and CO - for models having 3000 K {<=} Teff {<=} 4000 K and -0.5 {<=} log(g) {<=} 1.5.

- Cousins RI photometry in IC 348
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/127/1602

- Description:
- The extremely young cluster IC 348 has been monitored photometrically over five observing seasons from 1998 December 10 to 2003 March 26 in Cousins I with a 0.6m telescope at Van Vleck Observatory. Twenty-eight periodic variables and 16 irregular variables have been identified. The variability study is most sensitive for stars with I<14.3mag; at that brightness level, we find that 24 of the 27 known pre-main-sequence (PMS) cluster members in the monitored field are variables, illustrating the value of photometric monitoring for identifying PMS cluster members. Among this brighter sample, 14 of the 16 known K or M-type weak-line T Tauri stars (WTTS) were found to be periodic variables, while all five of the known classical T Tauri stars (CTTS) were found to be irregular variables. In the full sample, which includes 150 stars with I as faint as 18, we find that 40% of the 63 WTTS are detected as variables, nearly all of them periodic, while 55% of the 20 CTTS are also detected as variable, with none of them periodic.

- Cousins RI photometry of NGC 2169
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/376/580
- Date:

- Description:
- We have used Cousins RI CCD photometry from the Isaac Newton telescope and intermediate-resolution spectroscopy from the Gemini North telescope to identify and characterize low-mass (0.15<M/M_{sun}_<1.3) pre-main-sequence stars in the young open cluster NGC 2169. Isochrone fitting to the high- and low-mass populations yields an intrinsic distance modulus of 10.13^+0.06^_-0.09_mag and a model-dependent age of 9+/-2Myr. Compared to the nearby, kinematically defined groups of a similar age, NGC 2169 has a large low-mass population which potentially offers a more precise statistical investigation of several aspects of star formation and early stellar evolution. By modelling the distribution of low-mass stars in the IC versus RC IC diagram, we find that any age spread among cluster members has a Gaussian full width at half-maximum (FWHM) 2.5Myr. A young age and a small age spread (<10Myr) are supported by the lack of significant lithium depletion in the vast majority of cluster members. There is no clear evidence for accretion or warm circumstellar dust in the low-mass members of NGC 2169, bolstering the idea that strong accretion has ceased and inner discs have dispersed in almost all low-mass stars by ages of 10Myr.

- C stars in IC 1613

- Description:
- We present results of a multifilter survey of the whole Magellanic-type galaxy IC 1613. Narrowband CN and TiO filters are used to identify carbon stars among red giants. We have identified 195 carbon stars, extending up to 15' from the center of the galaxy. We present well-calibrated R and I magnitudes for all stars. The large field surveyed allows a reliable foreground estimate of M stars, leading to a C/M ratio of 0.64, when giants as early as M0 are counted. Analysis of the photometric properties of the C star population reveals a narrow M_I_ distribution with a mean M_I_ of -4.69mag, with a dispersion of +/-0.28. IC 1613 has, for its absolute magnitude, a normal number of C stars.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the latest results of our ongoing four-filter photometric survey of C stars in Local Group dwarf irregular galaxies. Observations of the two low-luminosity dwarf irregular galaxies, Pegasus and DDO 210, revealed 40 and three C stars, respectively, assuming that the reddening of Pegasus is negligible. No C stars were identified in Tucana. Our observations permit the estimation of the color-magnitude diagram contamination by foreground M dwarfs thus yielding reliable C/M ratios. Our R and I photometry of the C stars cannot be used to solve the extinction controversy toward Pegasus. The three C stars in DDO 210 are quite bright when compared with C star populations in other dwarf galaxies. A larger, fainter population in that galaxy seems improbable, however. The statistics of C stars currently on hand for dwarf galaxies show a well-defined trend with the absolute magnitude of dwarf galaxies.

- Description:
- The ESO-Spitzer extragalactic Imaging Survey (ESIS) is the optical follow up of the Spitzer Wide-Area InfraRed Extragalactic (SWIRE) survey in the ELAIS-S1 area. The multiwavelength study of galaxy emission is the key to understand the interplay of the various components of galaxies and to trace their role in cosmic evolution. ESIS provides optical identification and colors of Spitzer IR galaxies and builds the bases for photometric redshift estimates. This paper presents B, V, R Wide Field Imager observations of the first 1.5 square degree of the ESIS survey. Data reduction includes astrometric calibration, illumination and color corrections. Synthetic sources are simulated in scientific and super-sky-flat images, with the purpose of estimating completeness and photometric accuracy for the survey. Number counts and color distributions are compared to literature observational and theoretical data, including non-evolutionary, PLE, evolutionary and semi-analytic Lambda-CDM galaxy models, as well as Milky Way stellar predictions. Object coordinates are defined with an accuracy as good as ~0.15" rms with respect to GSC 2.2; flux uncertainties are ~2, 10, 20% at mag. 20, 23, 24 respectively (Vega); we reach 95% completeness at B, V~25 and R~24.5. ESIS galaxy number counts are in good agreement with previous works and are best reproduced by evolutionary and hierarchical Lambda-CDM scenarios.
