Spitzer 24 μm Survey of Debris Disks in the Pleiades
We performed a 24 μm 2deg×1deg survey ofthe Pleiades cluster, using the MIPS instrument on Spitzer. Fifty-fourmembers ranging in spectral type from B8 to K6 show 24 μm fluxesconsistent with bare photospheres. All Be stars show excesses attributedto free-free emission in their gaseous envelopes. Five early-type starsand four solar-type stars show excesses indicative of debris disks. Wefind a debris disk fraction of 25% for B-A members and 10% for F-K3ones. These fractions appear intermediate between those for youngerclusters and for the older field stars. They indicate a decay with ageof the frequency of the dust production events inside the planetaryzone, with similar timescales for solar-mass stars as have been foundpreviously for A stars.
| On the Spectroscopic Nature of HD 221866
On the basis of a new classification-resolution spectrum, we find thatHD 221866, a member of the newly discovered γ Doradusvariable-star class, is an Am (metallic-line A-type) star. Observationswith the Cambridge radial-velocity spectrometer reveal that the star isa double-lined spectroscopic binary with a period of 135 days and a massratio of 1.11+/-0.03. We have determined the basic physical parametersof both components through spectral analysis of theclassification-resolution spectrum and a medium-resolution spectrum fromthe KPNO coudé-feed spectrograph in conjunction with fluxes fromvisible spectrophotometry and the TD-1 satellite. We confirm the resultsof Fekel et al. that the primary is the Am star, whereas the secondaryappears to be a normal early F-type dwarf. We reanalyze the time-seriesphotometric data for HD 221866 and confirm the existence of two periodsfound by Henry & Fekel.
| Photometric and Spectroscopic Study of Stars in the Field of the Young Open Cluster Roslund 4
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations performed in thefield of the Galactic open cluster Roslund 4, which contains the twocataloged nebulae IC 4954 and IC 4955. UBVRI photometry was carried outin a field of 11'×6' around the clustercenter. Medium-resolution optical spectroscopy has been obtained for 41stars, including previously selected main-sequence and pre-main-sequencecandidate cluster members. Narrowband Hα, [S II], and continuumimages have been secured. The observations allow us the measurement ofdifferent physical parameters for the cluster. Assuming an absorptioncoefficient AV/E(B-V)=3.1 and a reddening slopeE(U-B)/E(B-V)=0.72, we obtain a color excess E(B-V)=1.1+/-0.2 and adistance modulus DM0=11.7+/-0.5. Fitting of isochrones to thecolor-magnitude diagrams gives logage(yr)=7.2+/-0.2, and thespectroscopic measurements provide the value VR=-15.7+/-5.2km s-1 for the heliocentric radial velocity. Among the 41stars with spectroscopic data, 11 stars are probable cluster members onthe basis of their radial velocity, and another 10 are considered aspossible members. Two probable member stars of spectral types A5 and G1show hints of absorption in the Li I 6708 Å line, with respectiveequivalent widths of 0.10 and 0.28 Å, and 22 stars of spectraltypes from B2 to G0 show different degrees of emission in Hα, [NII], and [S II] lines. With the exception of three stars of spectraltype earlier than A0, the emission of which is mainly photospheric, allother emissions seen in Hα and forbidden lines have a nebularorigin. They arise in an ionized cloud that surrounds the cluster and iscausing diffuse emission and, possibly, local variations in theextinction law from star to star. In addition to the stars, spectra ofseveral nebular condensations with relatively higher excitation havebeen analyzed. Two of them have been suggested to be Herbig-Haro (HH)objects. Our spectra indicate that only one of these condensations couldbe considered as an HH object.
| XMM-Newton and the Pleiades - I. Bright coronal sources and the X-ray emission from intermediate-type stars
We present results of X-ray spectral and timing analyses of solar-like(spectral types F5-K8) and intermediate-type (B4-F4) Pleiads observed ina 40-ks XMM-Newton EPIC exposure, probing X-ray luminosities(LX) up to a factor 10 fainter than previous studies usingthe ROSAT PSPC. All eight solar-like members have`quasi-steady'LX>~ 1029erg s-1,consistent with the known rotation-activity relation and four exhibitflares. Using a hydrodynamic modelling technique, we derive loophalf-lengths for the two strongest flares, on H II 1032 and H II 1100.Near the beginning of its flare, the light curve of H II 1100 shows afeature with a profile suggestive of a total occultation of the flaringloop. Eclipse by a substellar companion in a close orbit is possible butwould seem an extraordinarily fortuitous event; absorption by afast-moving cloud of cool material requires NH at least twoorders of magnitude greater than any solar or stellar prominence. Anoccultation may have been mimicked by the coincidence of two flares,though the first, with its decay time being shorter than its rise timeand suggestive of , would be unusual.Spectral modelling of the quasi-steady emission shows a rising trend incoronal temperature from F and slowly rotating G stars to K stars tofast-rotating G stars, and a preference for low coronal metallicity.These features are consistent with those of nearby solar-like stars,although none of the three stars showing `saturated' emission bears thesignificant component at 2 keV seen in the saturated coronae of AB Dorand 47 Cas. Of five intermediate-type stars, two are undetected(LX < 4 × 1027erg s-1) andthree show X-ray emission with a spectrum and LX consistentwith origin from an active solar-like companion.
| The 77th Name-List of Variable Stars

New designations are alsointroduced for two ``old'' variables whose corrected coordinates bringthem to other constellations.
| Chandra Observations of the Pleiades Open Cluster: X-Ray Emission from Late B- to Early F-Type Binaries
We present the analysis of a 38.4 and 23.6 ks observation of the core ofthe Pleiades open cluster. The Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer onboard the Chandra X-Ray Observatory detected 99 X-ray sources in a17'×17' region, including 18 of 23 Pleiadesmembers. Five candidate Pleiades members have also been detected,confirming their cluster membership. Fifty-seven sources have no opticalor near-infrared counterparts to limiting magnitudes V=22.5 and J=14.5.The unidentified X-ray sources are probably background active galacticnuclei and not stars. The Chandra field of view contains sevenintermediate-mass cluster members. Five of these, HII 980 (B6+G), HII956 (A7+F6), HII 1284 (A9+K), HII 1338 (F3+F6), and HII 1122 (F4+K), aredetected in this study. All but HII 1284 have high X-ray luminosity andsoft X-ray spectra. HII 1284 has X-ray properties comparable tononflaring K-type stars. Since all five stars are visual orspectroscopic binaries with X-ray properties similar to F-G stars, thelate-type binary companions are probably producing the observed coronalX-ray emission. Strengthening this conclusion is the nondetection byChandra of two A stars, HII 1362 (A7, no known companion) and HII 1375(A0+A SB) with X-ray luminosity upper limits 27-54 times smaller thanHII 980 and HII 956, the B6-A7 stars with cooler companions. Despite thelow number statistics, the Chandra data appear to confirm theexpectation that late B and A stars are not strong intrinsic X-raysources. The ACIS spectra and hardness ratios suggest a gradual increasein coronal temperature with decreasing mass from F4 to K. M stars appearto have somewhat cooler coronae than active K stars.
| 10 New γ Doradus and δ Scuti Stars
We present high-resolution spectroscopy and precision photometry of fivenew γ Doradus and five new δ Scuti variables. The five newγ Doradus variables substantially increase the number of confirmedstars of this class. All 10 stars fall in the spectral class rangeF0-F2, but they are cleanly separated into two groups by theirluminosity and photometric periods. However, the period gap between theγ Doradus and δ Scuti stars is becoming very narrow since weconfirm that HD 155154 is a γ Doradus star with the shortestperiods reported to date (the shortest of its four periods is ~0.312days). We do not find any evidence in our sample for stars exhibitingboth δ Scuti- and γ Doradus-type pulsations.
| The Physical Basis of Luminosity Classification in the Late A-, F-, and Early G-Type Stars. II. Basic Parameters of Program Stars and the Role of Microturbulence
Paper I of this series presented precise MK spectral types for 372 lateA-, F-, and early G-type stars with the aim of understanding the natureof luminosity classification on the MK spectral classification systemfor this range of spectral types. In this paper, a multidimensionaldownhill simplex technique is introduced to determine the basicparameters of the program stars from fits of synthetic spectra andfluxes with observed spectra and fluxes from Strömgren uvbyphotometry. This exercise yields useful calibrations of the MK spectralclassification system but, most importantly, gives insight into thephysical nature of luminosity classification on the MK spectralclassification system. In particular, we find that in this range ofspectral types, microturbulence appears to be at least as important asgravity in determining the MK luminosity type.
| The Physical Basis of Luminosity Classification in the Late A-, F-, and Early G-Type Stars. I. Precise Spectral Types for 372 Stars
This is the first in a series of two papers that address the problem ofthe physical nature of luminosity classification in the late A-, F-, andearly G-type stars. In this paper, we present precise spectralclassifications of 372 stars on the MK system. For those stars in theset with Strömgren uvbyβ photometry, we derive reddenings andpresent a calibration of MK temperature types in terms of the intrinsicStrömgren (b-y)0 index. We also examine the relationshipbetween the luminosity class and the Strömgren c1 index,which measures the Balmer jump. The second paper will address thederivation of the physical parameters of these stars, and therelationships between these physical parameters and the luminosityclass. Stars classified in this paper include one new λ Bootisstar and 10 of the F- and G-type dwarfs with recently discoveredplanets.

| 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.
| The Group Of λ Bootis Stars
In this article the current status of the knowledge forthe group ofλ Bootis stars is reviewed. These metal poor objectsare quiteoutstanding compared to other chemically peculiar stars of theupper mainsequence. Up to now no conclusive theory has been developedwhich is ableto explain the majority of observational results. There is,however, anincreasing interest in observational as well as theoreticalresults inorder to develop and test astrophysical models such asaccretion ofcircumstellar matter and diffusion processes in stellaratmospheres.
| HR 8799: A Link between γ Doradus Variables and λ Bootis Stars
On the basis of a new classification-resolution spectrum, we find thatHR 8799, a known member of the newly discovered γ Doradus variablestar class, is a λ Bootis star. Spectral synthesis, inconjunction with fluxes from visible spectrophotometry and the TD-1satellite, yields Teff=7430 K, logg=4.35, microturbulentvelocity ξt=2.7 km s-1, and metallicity[M/H]=-0.47 for HR 8799, confirming its metal-weak nature. HR 8799 isalso a ``Vega-like'' star in that it shows excess flux at 60 μm,probably due to a circumstellar dust shell or disk. Thus, this starlinks three astrophysically interesting classes of stars and may providepotentially important constraints on the physics of, and theinterconnections between, the λ Bootis phenomenon and the γDoradus pulsation phenomenon.
| Photometric Measurements of the Fields of More than 700 Nearby Stars
In preparation for optical/IR interferometric searches for substellarcompanions of nearby stars, we undertook to characterize the fields ofall nearby stars visible from the Northern Hemisphere to determinesuitable companions for interferometric phase referencing. Because theKeck Interferometer in particular will be able to phase-reference oncompanions within the isoplanatic patch (30") to about 17th magnitude atK, we took images at V, r, and i that were deep enough to determine iffield stars were present to this magnitude around nearby stars using aspot-coated CCD. We report on 733 fields containing 10,629 measurementsin up to three filters (Gunn i, r and Johnson V) of nearby stars down toabout 13th magnitude at V.
| Spectroscopy of Pre-Main-Sequence Candidates of Spectral Type AF in the Young Galactic Cluster IC 4996
We present the results of a spectroscopic analysis of thepre-main-sequence (PMS) candidates in IC 4996, proposed by Delgado etal. Spectral types and heliocentric radial velocities are calculated for16 stars in the field observed by these authors, 13 of them located inthe region of the color-magnitude diagram where their proposed PMS starsare located. The estimated heliocentric radial velocity of the clusteris centered around -12+/-5 km s^-1. From the radial velocitydistribution, six stars are rejected as cluster members, one of themshowing spectral features characteristic of an Am star. The remaining 10stars are confirmed as cluster members: three B-type stars and seven PMSstars of spectral types A4-F0 (six stars) and early G (one star). One ofthe proposed PMS members clearly shows radial velocity and spectral typevariations, as well as relatively broad Hα absorption. The G-typecluster member is a weak-lined T Tauri star with strong Li Iλ6708 absorption [W_λ(Li I)~=0.26 Å]. These resultsstrongly support the presence in the cluster of a populated sequence ofPMS stars of AF spectral type.

| 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%.

| Vitesses radiales. Catalogue WEB: Wilson Evans Batten. Subtittle: Radial velocities: The Wilson-Evans-Batten catalogue.
We give a common version of the two catalogues of Mean Radial Velocitiesby Wilson (1963) and Evans (1978) to which we have added the catalogueof spectroscopic binary systems (Batten et al. 1989). For each star,when possible, we give: 1) an acronym to enter SIMBAD (Set ofIdentifications Measurements and Bibliography for Astronomical Data) ofthe CDS (Centre de Donnees Astronomiques de Strasbourg). 2) the numberHIC of the HIPPARCOS catalogue (Turon 1992). 3) the CCDM number(Catalogue des Composantes des etoiles Doubles et Multiples) byDommanget & Nys (1994). For the cluster stars, a precise study hasbeen done, on the identificator numbers. Numerous remarks point out theproblems we have had to deal with.

| 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 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.
| Spectral classifications in the near infrared of stars with composite spectra. I. The study of MK standards.
Up to now the spectral classifications of the cool components ofcomposite spectra obtained in the 3800-4800A wavelength region have beenvery disparate. These disparities are due to the fact that the spectraof the evolved cool component are strongly veiled by that of the hotterdwarf component, which makes a classification very difficult. We proposeto study these systems in the near infrared (8380-8780A). In thisspectral domain the magnitude difference between the spectra of thecomponents is in general sufficiently large so that one observespractically only the spectrum of the cool component. In this first paperwe provide, for a sample of MK standards, the relations between theequivalent width (Wlambda_ ) of certain lines and thespectral classifications. For the cool G, K and M type stars, the linesconsidered are those of the calcium triplet (Ca II 8498, 8542 and 8662),of iron (Fe I 8621 and 8688), of titanium (Ti I 8426 and 8435) and ofthe blend λ8468. The use of certain line intensity ratiospermits, after eliminating partially the luminosity effects, a firstapproach to the spectral type. For the hotter stars of types O, B, A andF we study the behavior of the hydrogen lines (P12 and P14), the calciumlines (Ca II 8498 and 8542) as well as those of the oxygen (O I 8446).The latter line presents a very characteristic profile for stars of lowrotation and therefore in Am stars, which are frequently found among thecomposite spectrum binaries. Among the cooler stars of our sample, only6% present real anomalies with respect to the MK classifications. Thisresult is very encouraging for undertaking the classification of asample of composite spectra. The spectra were taken at the Observatoirede Haute-Provence (OHP) with the CARELEC spectrograph at the 193 cmtelescope, with a dispersion of 33 A/mm.
