High-Precision Near-Infrared Photometry of a Large Sample of Bright Stars Visible from the Northern Hemisphere
We present the results of 8 yr of infrared photometric monitoring of alarge sample of stars visible from Teide Observatory (Tenerife, CanaryIslands). The final archive is made up of 10,949 photometric measuresthrough a standard InSb single-channel photometer system, principally inJHK, although some stars have measures in L'. The core of this list ofstars is the standard-star list developed for the Carlos SánchezTelescope. A total of 298 stars have been observed on at least twooccasions on a system carefully linked to the zero point defined byVega. We present high-precision photometry for these stars. The medianuncertainty in magnitude for stars with a minimum of four observationsand thus reliable statistics ranges from 0.0038 mag in J to 0.0033 magin K. Many of these stars are faint enough to be observable with arraydetectors (42 are K>8) and thus to permit a linkage of the bright andfaint infrared photometric systems. We also present photometry of anadditional 25 stars for which the original measures are no longeravailable, plus photometry in L' and/or M of 36 stars from the mainlist. We calculate the mean infrared colors of main-sequence stars fromA0 V to K5 V and show that the locus of the H-K color is linearlycorrelated with J-H. The rms dispersion in the correlation between J-Hand H-K is 0.0073 mag. We use the relationship to interpolate colors forall subclasses from A0 V to K5 V. We find that K and M main-sequence andgiant stars can be separated on the color-color diagram withhigh-precision near-infrared photometry and thus that photometry canallow us to identify potential mistakes in luminosity classclassification.
| BVRIJHK Photometry of Cepheid Variables
Contemporaneous BVRI and JHK photometry are presented for twenty-twoCepheid variables. Nineteen of these variables also have uvby photometryavailable, making them excellent candidates for application of theInfrared Flux Method of distance determination. We are in the process ofacquiring high precision radial velocities of sixteen of these variablesin anticipation of conducting that analysi. (SECTION: Stars)
| Observational studies of Cepheids. II - BVRI photometry of 112 Cepheids
Over 4000 differentially determined photoelectric BVRI observations andthe resulting light curves are presented for 112 Cepheids accessiblefrom Northern Hemisphere observatories. The internal precision of thesedata is better than + or - 0.01 mag, and the accuracy of transformationto the Johnson BVRI system is nearly as good.
