| Chromospheric activity in the late A- and early F-type stars of open clusters - II. Pleiades and Alpha Persei
We report observations of the Hei λ5876 (D3) line in the late A-and early F-type stars in the Pleiades and Alpha Persei star clustersused to determine chromospheric activity levels. This represents thefirst sample of young stars in this temperature range with chromosphericactivity measurements. We find the same average activity level in theyoung early F stars as in Hyades-age stars and field stars. In addition,the young star sample shows the same large star-to-star variation inactivity as seen in the older stars. Thus, as a whole, chromosphericactivity in this photospheric temperature range remains the same overnearly a factor of 100 in stellar age (50Myr to 3Gyr), in strikingcontrast to the behaviour of later-type stars. In the five late A starswe find three certain detections of D3 and one likely detection. Thisincludes the bluest star yet observed with a chromospheric D3 line,Pleiades star HII 1362 at (B-V)0=0.22, making it one of theearliest stars with an observed chromosphere. The late A stars have D3equivalent widths comparable to the weakest early F stars. However, whencomparing D3 measurements in the young late A stars with older late Astars, we find evidence for a slight decrease in activity with age basedon the large number of non-detections in the older stars. We find anapparently linear relationship between the activity upper limit and B-Vover our entire range of B-V. Extrapolated blueward, this relationshippredicts that the chromospheric D3 line would disappear for all stars atB-V ~0.13.
| Search for gamma Doradus variable stars in the Pleiades cluster
Photometric observations in the uvbybeta system of A-F type stars in thePleiades cluster have been performed in order to detect pulsatingvariable stars of gamma Doradus type in the lower part of the Cepheidinstability strip. In order to obtain more information about thebehaviour of the studied objects and to be able to distinguish betweenlong period variable and non-variable stars, two statistical methodshave been developed. Several of these stars show some type ofvariability but only two of the observed objects, H1284 and S29, can besafely classified as gamma Dor stars. Furthermore, these observationshave provided us with Strömgren and Hβ photometry,non-existing up to now for some of them, which permitted us to perform aphotometric study of the Pleiades cluster.
| Statistics of binaries in the Pleiades cluster
We present a statistical analysis of binaries in galactic clusters,based on photometric properties. Synthetic clusters are used to solvethe deconvolution problem. If the colour-magnitude relation for singlestars is given and if triple stars are treated as binaries, thedistribution of systems in a colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) can be usedto determine cluster properties. They include the maximum number ofsingle stars N1max which is compatible with the distributionof systems, a standard deviation sigma (describing the scatter of starson the main sequence), a critical mass ratio q_c, and the mass ratiodistribution in the case of N_1=N1max. In the general case(N_1<= N1max) the mass ratio distribution can bedetermined for q>q_c, and in favourable cases (if N_1 is sufficientlylarge) for all mass ratios. A first application concerns thePleiades cluster in the colour range 0.2<= B-V<0.98. The concentration of systems near the main sequence in the CMDis used to derive an approximation for the colour-magnitude relation. Asmall positive number c is involved as a parameter. The mass ratiodistribution depends sensitively on c and increases towards small massratios, at least up to q =~ 0.5 and probably up to q =~ 0.3. Thedistribution is bimodal, with a peak at q=1. Photometric arguments showthat c<~ 0.02. A binary frequency of 60-70% as expected from clustersimulations (Kroupa \cite{krou}) requires c<~ 0.03. An adjustment oftwo parameters (c=0.02 and a 70% binary frequency) is sufficient toreproduce the mass ratio distribution for binaries in the galacticfield. This suggests that the mass ratio distribution in the Pleiades issimilar to the distribution in the field, in accordance with aconjecture of Bouvier et al. (\cite{brn}, BRN).
| Deep ROSAT HRI observations of the Pleiades
In a deep X-ray survey of the Pleiades open cluster, we use the ROSATHigh Resolution Imager to explore a region of the cluster formerlysurveyed with the PSPC. These new observations substantially improveupon both the sensitivity and the spatial resolution for this region ofthe Pleiades, allowing us to detect 18 cluster members not detectedbefore and 16 members not included in the catalogs used in previoussurveys. The high sensitivity of the present observations permits us toobtain more stringent upper limits for 72 additional members and alsoprovides sufficient numbers of stars to enable us to explore thedependence of L_x on stellar rotation for the slow rotators of thePleiades. Using the new high sensitivity X-ray observations and therecent rotational measurements we discuss the activity-rotationrelationship in the Pleiades solar type stars. We also present newphotometric observations of optical counterparts of a number of X-raysources detected in previous surveys but not yet identified.

| The Pleiades and alpha Persei Clusters
The upper-main-sequence members of the Pleiades and alpha Perseiclusters, considered as members of the Local Association, yield meanparallaxes that are only 4% larger than the mean values from Hipparcosobservations. The (log T_eff, M_V) diagram reveals that in thetemperature range from 6000 to 8000 K, the Hyades and alpha Perseimain-sequence members are nearly identical and several tenths of amagnitude brighter than similar stars on the Pleiades main sequence. Thedeparture of the Pleiades main sequence cannot be traced to either ageor heavy-element abundance differences in the range thought to apply tothese clusters. A 50% increase in the helium abundance of Pleiades overHyades stars could account for the luminosity difference. Alternativeexplanations are that the Pleiades cluster is rejected from superclustermembership and/or that the Hipparcos parallax results for the Pleiadesare in error by some 10%.
| The rotational velocity of low-mass stars in the Pleiades cluster
We present new {vsin i} measurements for 235 low-mass stars in thePleiades. The differential rotational broadening has been resolved forall the stars in our sample. These results, combined with previouslypublished measurements, provide a complete and unbiased rotation dataset for stars in the mass range from 0.6 to 1.2{Msun}.Applying a numerical inversion technique on the {vsin i} distributions,we derive the distributions of equatorial velocities for low-massPleiades members. We find that half of the Pleiades dwarfs with a massbetween 0.6 to 1 {Msun} have rotation rates lower than 10{ kms(-1) }. Comparison of the rotational distributions of low-mass membersbetween IC 2602/2391 (~ 35 Myr) and the Pleiades (~ 100 Myr) suggeststhat G dwarfs behave like solid-bodies and follow Skumanich's law duringthis time span. However, comparison between Pleiades and older clusters-M34 (~ 200 Myr) and Hyades (~ 600 Myr)- indicates that the braking ofslow rotators on the early main sequence is weaker than predicted by anasymptotical Skumanich's law. This strongly supports the view thatangular momentum tapped in the radiative core of slow rotators on thezero age main sequence (ZAMS) resurfaces into the convective envelopebetween Pleiades and Hyades age. For the G-dwarfs, we derive acharacteristic coupling time scale between the core and the envelope ofabout 100-200 Myr, which accounts for the observed evolution of surfacerotation from the ZAMS to the Hyades. The relationship between rotationand coronal activity in the Pleiades is in agreement with previousobservations in other clusters and field stars. We show that the Rossbydiagram provides an excellent description of the X-ray activity for allstars in the mass domain studied. The Pleiades data for slow andmoderate rotators fills the gap between the X-ray-rotation correlationfound for slow rotators and the X-ray ``saturation plateau'' observedfor young fast rotators. The transition between increasing X-ray fluxwith rotation and X-ray saturation is observed at log (P/tau)=0.8+/-0.1. These results strengthen the hypothesis that the``saturation'' of the angular momentum loss process depends on thestellar mass. Based on observations collected at the Observatoire deHaute-Provence with ELODIE at the 193cm telescope and with CORAVEL atthe 1m-swiss telescope
| Investigation of the Pleiades cluster. IV. The radial structure
On the basis of the best available member list and duplicityinformation, we have studied the radial distribution of 270 stars andmultiple systems earlier than K0 in the Pleiades. Five new long periodspectroscopic binaries have been identified from the CORAVELobservations. We have found a clear mass segregation between binariesand single stars, which is explained by the greater average mass of themultiple systems. The mass function of the single stars and primariesappears to be significantly different. While the central part of thecluster is spherical, the outer part is clearly elliptical, with anellipticity of 0.17. The various parameters describing the Pleiades are(for a distance of 125 pc): core radius rc = 0fdg6 (1.4 pc),tidal radius rt = 7fdg4 (16 pc), half mass radius r_{m/2} =0fdg88 (1.9 pc), harmonic radius /line{r} = 1fdg82 (4 pc). Low-massstars (later than K0) probably extend further out and new proper motionand radial velocity surveys over a larger area and to fainter magnitudeswould be very important to improve the description of the clusterstructure and complete mass function. Based on observations collected atthe Haute-Provence Observatory (France).

| Membership probabilities in the Pleiades field.
A catalogue of proper motions and photographic B, V magnitudes for starsup to B=19mag within a region centered near Alcyone is presented. Thecatalogue is based on MAMA measurements of 8 plates taken with theTautenburg Schmidt telescope. The survey includes ca. 14500 stars andcovers a total field of about 9 square degrees. For stars brighter thanB=18mag an internal accuracy of 0.05mag and 2.5mas/year has beenestimated for photometric data and proper motions, respectively.Membership probabilities, proper motions and B, V magnitudes are listedfor 442 stars up to B=19mag in the Pleiades field.
| The structure of the galactic halo outside the solar circle as traced by the blue horizontal branch stars
A complete sample of blue horizontal branch (BHB) stars in the magnituderange 13.0 less than or equal to V less than or equal to 16.5 isisolated in two Galactic fields that have previously been searched forRR Lyrae variables: SA 57 in the Northern Polar Cap and the LickAstrograph field RR 7 in the Anticenter (l = 183 deg, b = +37 deg).These BHB stars are a subset of the AF stars found in the CaseLow-Dispersion Northern Survey; lists of these AF stars were madeavailable by the late Nick Sanduleak. In the color range 0.00 less thanor equal to (B - V)0 less than or equal to +0.20, we candistinguish the BHB stars among these AF stars by comparing them bothwith well known local field horizontal branch (FHB) stars and also theBHB members of the halo globular clusters M3 and M92. The criteria forthis comparison include (1) a (u - B)K color index (derivedfrom photoelectric observations using the Stroemgren u filter and theJohnson B and V filters) that measures the size of the Balmer jump, (2)a spectrophotometric index lambda that measures the steepness of theBalmer jump, and (3) a parameter D0.2 that is the mean widthof the H-delta and H-gamma Balmer lines measured at 20 percent of thecontinuum level. These criteria give consistent results in separatingBHB stars from higher gravity main sequence AF stars in the color range0.00 less than or equal to (B - V)0 less than or equal to+0.20. All three photometric and spectrophotometric criteria weremeasured for 35 stars in the SA 57 field and 37 stars in the RR 7 fieldthat are in the color range (B - V)0 less than or equal to+0.23 and in the magnitude range 13.0 less than or equal to V less thanor equal to 16.5. For a small number of additional stars only (u -B)K was obtained. Among the AF stars that are fainter than B= 13 and bluer than (B - V)0 = +0.23, about half of those inthe SA 57 field and about one third of those in the lower latitude RR 7field are BHB stars. Isoabundance contours were located empirically inplots of the pseudoequivalent width versus (B - V)0 for thelines of Mg II lambda-4481 A, Ca II lambda-3933 A, and Fe I lambda-4272A. Solar abundances were defined by the data from main sequence stars inthe Pleiades and Coma open clusters. Data from the BHB stars in M3 andM92 defined the (Fe/H) = -1.5 and -2.2 isoabundance contours,respectively. Metallicities of all stars were estimated by interpolatingthe measured pseudoequivalent widths in these diagrams at the observed(B - V)0. The distribution of (Fe/H) found for the BHB starsin this way is very similar to that which we found for the RR Lyraestars in the same fields using the Preston Delta-S method. The spacedensities of these BHB stars were analyzed both separately and togetherwith earlier observations of field BHB stars. This analysis supports atwo-component model for the halo of our Galaxy that is similar in manyrespects to that proposed by Hartwick although our discussion refersonly to the region outside the solar circle.
| A deep imaging survey of the Pleiades with ROSAT
We have obtained deep ROSAT images of three regions within the Pleiadesopen cluster. We have detected 317 X-ray sources in these ROSAT PositionSensitive Proportional Counter (PSPC) images, 171 of which we associatewith certain or probable members of the Pleiades cluster. We detectnearly all Pleiades members with spectral types later than G0 and within25 arcminutes of our three field centers where our sensitivity ishighest. This has allowed us to derive for the first time the luminosityfunction for the G, K, amd M dwarfs of an open cluster without the needto use statistical techniques to account for the presence of upperlimits in the data sample. Because of our high X-ray detection frequencydown to the faint limit of the optical catalog, we suspect that some ofour unidentified X-ray sources are previously unknown, very low-massmembers of Pleiades. A large fraction of the Pleiades members detectedwith ROSAT have published rotational velocities. Plots ofLX/LBol versus spectroscopic rotational velocityshow tightly correlated `saturation' type relations for stars with ((B -V)0) greater than or equal to 0.60. For each of several colorranges, X-ray luminosities rise rapidly with increasing rotation rateuntil c sin i approximately equal to 15 km/sec, and then remainsessentially flat for rotation rates up to at least v sin i approximatelyequal to 100 km/sec. The dispersion in rotation among low-mass stars inthe Pleiades is by far the dominant contributor to the dispersion inLX at a given mass. Only about 35% of the B, A, and early Fstars in the Pleiades are detected as X-ray sources in our survey. Thereis no correlation between X-ray flux and rotation for these stars. TheX-ray luminosity function for the early-type Pleiades stars appears tobe bimodal -- with only a few exceptions, we either detect these starsat fluxes in the range found for low-mass stars or we derive X-raylimits below the level found for most Pleiades dwarfs. The X-ray spectrafor the early-type Pleiades stars detected by ROSAT areindistinguishable from the spectra of the low-mass Pleiades members. Webelieve that the simplest explanation for this behavior is that theearly-type Pleiades stars are not themselves intrinsic X-ray sources andthat the X-ray emission actually arises from low-mass companions tothese stars.
| The evolution of the lithium abundances of solar-type stars. III - The Pleiades
New measurements of lithium in more than 100 Pleiades F, G, and K dwarfsare reported. Abundances are determined from spectrum synthesis fits tothe data as well as from use of new covers of growth from the Li 6708-Afeature. It is argued that most Late-F and early-G dwarfs in thePleiades are consistent with the tight N(Li) vs mass relation seen inthe Hyades in the same mass range. Most Li-rich stars have abundances ator near the primordial level for Population I, and none exceed thatlevel by a significant amount. At any given color the stars that rotatefast have the most Li and have the strongest chromospheric activity.Ways in which an apparent spread in N(Li) could arise from anintrinsically tight n(Li)-mass relation are considered, and it isconcluded that the spread is probably real and is not an artifact ofline formation conditions or inhomogeneous atmospheres on the stars.
| Rotation and chromospheric emission among F, G, and K dwarfs of the Pleiades
High-resolution echelle spectra of more than 100 F, G, and K dwarfs inthe Pleiades are reported. Chromospheric activity in these stars ismeasured via comparisons of the profiles of H-alpha and the Ca II IRtriplet to chromospherically inactive field stars. Consistent dereddenedcolors are determined from the available photometry and temperatures arederived. Most G and K dwarfs in the Pleiades rotate slowly, but about 20percent of the stars are ultrafast rotators (UFRs). That fraction ofUFRs is independent of color, and the highest rotation rates are foundamong the K dwarfs. The Pleiades exhibit a broad range in the strengthof chromospheric emission at any one color. Most G and K dwarfs in thePleiades show H-alpha and the IR triple in absorption, with filling inof the line cores.
| Investigation of the Pleiades cluster. II - Binary stars in the F5-K0 spectral region
Coravel observations of 100 F5-K0 stars in the Pleiades cluster yielded13 spectroscopic binary stars, and 11 orbits were determined. All 11periods are shorter than 1000 days and the longest circular period is7.05 days. One single-lined spectroscopic binary belongs to a triplesystem, the orbital motion of which has been detected. Based on acomplete sample in the color range B-V = 0.40 - 0.90, (88 stars), thepercentage of spectroscopic binaries with P less than 1000 days is 13percent. The number of single:binary:triple stars is 56:30:2.
| A catalogue of Fe/H determinations - 1991 edition
A revised version of the catalog of Fe/H determinations published by G.Cayrel et al. (1985) is presented. The catalog contains 3252 Fe/Hdeterminations for 1676 stars. The literature is complete up to December1990. The catalog includes only Fe/H determinations obtained from highresolution spectroscopic observations based on detailed spectroscopicanalyses, most of them carried out with model atmospheres. The catalogcontains a good number of Fe/H determinations for stars from open andglobular clusters and for some supergiants in the Magellanic Clouds.
| Radial velocity measurements in the Pleiades
High-resolution radial velocities for 71 stars of both early and latespectral types in the Pleiades cluster have been obtained in order toinvestigate the possibility of establishing an early-type star velocitysystem by bootstrapping late-type velocity standards to early-type onesin young clusters. It is shown that in the absence of early-typevelocity standards the velocity scale of the early-type spectra in thecluster can be tied into the IAU velocity system by examining thevelocity distributions of both the early-type and the late-type stars,since the internal velocity dispersion in an open cluster is less thanabout 1 km/s. It is found that the cluster velocity of the Pleiades is6.0 km/s, with an observed velocity dispersion of 1 km/s. Based on thesevelocity results, a list of potentially constant velocity B and A starsis proposed for further studies to confirm the constancy of theirvelocities.
| Lithium, age, and metallicity in open clusters
It is shown that a strong relationship exists between Li abundance andage for stars in the temperature region 5950-6350 K. The relation isderived from mean Li abundances in eight open clusters ranging in agefrom 5 x 10 to the 7th to 8 x 10 to the 9th yr. The Li declinesexponentially with t exp(-0.3). It is suggested that, in thistemperature regime, simple microscopic diffusion is the cause of the Lidepletion. It is possible that there is a metallicity term in therelation, such that higher metallicity clusters with deeper convectionzones have less Li depletion, while lower metallicity cluster undergogreater depletion. This is consistent with expectations from diffusiontheory. Furthermore, the halo stars, with even lower metallicity andshallower convection zones, would have more diffusion and more Lidepletion; this is in agreement with recent theoretical work.
| X-ray studies of coeval star samples. II - The Pleiades cluster as observed with the Einstein Observatory
Coronal X-ray emission of the Pleiades stars is investigated, andmaximum likelihood, integral X-ray luminosity functions are computed forPleiades members in selected color-index ranges. A detailed search isconducted for long-term variability in the X-ray emission of those starsobserved more than once. An overall comparison of the survey resultswith those of previous surveys confirms the ubiquity of X-ray emissionin the Pleiades cluster stars and its higher rate of emission withrespect to older stars. It is found that the X-ray emission from dA andearly dF stars cannot be proven to be dissimilar to that of Hyades andfield stars of the same spectral type. The Pleiades cluster members showa real rise of the X-ray luminosity from dA stars to early dF stars.X-ray emission for the young, solarlike Pleiades stars is about twoorders of magnitude more intense than for the nearby solarlike stars.
| Lithium in old open clusters - NGC 188
Echelle spectra which include the Li I line at 6707 A are reported forseven main-sequence stars and one subgiant in NGC 188. The Li I line isdetected in five of the six dwarfs which are highly probable clustermembers. The derived atmospheric Li/H ratios exceed the solar value byfactors ranging approximately from 10 to 40, although these apparentlyclosely solarlike stars are about twice as old as the sun. The variationof the lithium abundance with stellar mass along the main sequences ofthe Pleiades, the Hyades, NGC 752, and NGC 188 are compared. Theresulting evolutionary pattern indicates that the lithium fraction inthe Galactic gas has shown no appreciable change from Li/H of roughly 10to the -9th since the birth of NGC 188 about 10 Gyr ago, except that theabundance could have been higher by an uncertain but possiblyappreciable factor at the beginning of that epoch.
| Lithium in the Pleiades and Alpha Persei clusters
Observations of the Li region in the 23 F dwarfs of the Pleiades andAlpha Per clusters were performed with a TI CCD at the coudespectrographof the 200-inch telescope with a spectral resolution of 0.2 A and 2sigma signal-to-noise ratios of 100-300. All 21 of the stars observed inthe temperature region of 6100-7300 K show strong Li I lines with valuesof log N(Li) near 3.0; the mean is 2.98 + or - 0.13. The data suggestthat the significant decrease in surface Li, possibly caused bydiffusion or differential rotation, occurs for cluster stars between theages of 5 x 10 to the 7th to 5 x 10 to the 8th yr.

| The abundance of lithium in pleiades F stars
The abundance of lithium has been determined for 18 stars in thePleiades cluster with spectral types from A7V to G0V. The pronounced dipin the lithium abundance among the mid-F stars which has been reportedfor other, older star clusters is not present in the Pleiades. Theremoval of lithium from the surfaces of middle-F dwarfs therefore occursprincipally after about 100 Myr on the main sequence.
| Interstellar extinction in the direction of the Merope dark cloud in Pleiades
The dependence of interstellar extinction on distance in the directionof the dark cloud south of Merope is determined using photoelectricphotometry of 93 stars in the Vilnius photometric system. The cloudfront edge is detected at 120-130 pc from the sun, and the distance ofthe Pleiades cluster is found to be 127 pc. Mean extinction, A(V), inthe Merope cloud is of the order of 1.0 mag. There is no evidence ofextinction at distances exceeding the Merope cloud distance. Thevariable extinction method yields R = A(V)/E(B-V) = 3.6, while themaximum polarization wavelength method gives the value 3.4. SomePleiades stars are suspected to be unresolved binaries.
| The Pleiades cluster. III - Polarization, reddening, and the unusual distribution of interstellar matter
A polarization survey of Pleiades cluster members and nonmembers hasbeen carried out together with a determination of interstellar reddeningfor cluster members. The ISM in front of and inside the cluster leads tovariable polarization and reddening across the cluster. The optical datacorrelate well with available radio and millimeter features. Twodistinct ISM concentrations are isolated: (1) a uniform foreground sheetin front of the whole cluster which is seen as constant reddening andpolarization in the eastern part of the cluster; and (2) additionalintracluster material, located mainly in the western part of thecluster.
| The distance of the Pleiades cluster and the calibration of photometric luminosities for early-type stars
An examination of the lower main-sequence (mode-A) stars in the Pleiadescluster suggests an Fe/H abundance ratio between 0.0 and 0.1 dex with aresulting modulus of 5.65 + or - 0.1 mag, and fundamental defects in thecalculation of Balona and Shobbrook (1984), with an adopted modulus of5.50 mag, are discussed. It is suggested that the ZAMS of Balona andShobbrook, and of Mermilliod (1981), are too bright due to theirassumption that the color-luminosity arrays of such clusters as thePleiades represent isochrones, leading to uncertainties in the ZAMS,particularly with respect to slope. Several recently publishedphotometric luminosity calibrations for early-type stars may beincorrect due to their failing to recognize the probable presence of atleast two evolutionary modes and the apparent absence of ZAMS stars nearthe sun.
