Chandra X-Ray Observations of Young Clusters. I. NGC 2264 Data
We present results of a Chandra observation of a field in NGC 2264. Theobservations were taken with the ACIS-I camera with an exposure time of48.1 ks. We present a catalog of 263 sources, which includes X-rayluminosity, optical and infrared photometry, and X-ray variabilityinformation. We found 41 variable sources, 14 of which have a flarelikelight curve, and two of which have a pattern of a steady increase ordecrease over a 10 hr period. The optical and infrared photometry forthe stars identified as X-ray sources are consistent with most of theseobjects being pre-main-sequence stars with ages younger than 3 Myr.

A spectroscopic survey for lambda Bootis stars. II. The observational data
lambda Bootis stars comprise only a small number of all A-type stars andare characterized as nonmagnetic, Population i, late B to early F-typedwarfs which show significant underabundances of metals whereas thelight elements (C, N, O and S) are almost normal abundant compared tothe Sun. In the second paper on a spectroscopic survey for lambda Bootisstars, we present the spectral classifications of all program starsobserved. These stars were selected on the basis of their Strömgrenuvbybeta colors as lambda Bootis candidates. In total, 708 objects insix open clusters, the Orion OB1 association and the Galactic field wereclassified. In addition, 9 serendipity non-candidates in the vicinity ofour program stars as well as 15 Guide Star Catalogue stars were observedresulting in a total of 732 classified stars. The 15 objects from theGuide Star Catalogue are part of a program for the classification ofapparent variable stars from the Fine Guidance Sensors of the HubbleSpace Telescope. A grid of 105 MK standard as well as ``pathological''stars guarantees a precise classification. A comparison of our spectralclassification with the extensive work of Abt & Morrell(\cite{Abt95}) shows no significant differences. The derived types are0.23 +/- 0.09 (rms error per measurement) subclasses later and 0.30 +/-0.08 luminosity classes more luminous than those of Abt & Morrell(\cite{Abt95}) based on a sample of 160 objects in common. The estimatederrors of the means are +/- 0.1 subclasses. The characteristics of oursample are discussed in respect to the distribution on the sky, apparentvisual magnitudes and Strömgren uvbybeta colors. Based onobservations from the Observatoire de Haute-Provence, OsservatorioAstronomico di Padova-Asiago, Observatório do Pico dosDias-LNA/CNPq/MCT, Chews Ridge Observatory (MIRA) and University ofToronto Southern Observatory (Las Campanas).

Spectral classification of O-M stars on the basis of UBV photometry
A new technique allowing the Q-method to be used surely for both thespectral classification of young O-A0 stars and older spectralsubclasses A1-M5 is described. Characteristics of interstellar lightabsorption dependence on distance in the given direction of the sky isused as a main criterion for excluding possible multiplicity of starspectral estimates at some constant values of QUBV.Information on open cluster membership probabilities is also useful asadditional criterion of the spectral classification. The method wastested on stars up to V=14 mag in directions of young open clusters NGC2244 and NGC 2264. The spectral study based on UBV photometry wasextended to faint stars of NGC 2264 in the V magnitude range 17-22 mag.

Derivation of the Galactic rotation curve using space velocities
We present rotation curves of the Galaxy based on the space-velocitiesof 197 OB stars and 144 classical cepheids, respectively, which rangeover a galactocentric distance interval of about 6 to 12kpc. Nosignificant differences between these rotation curves and rotationcurves based solely on radial velocities assuming circular rotation arefound. We derive an angular velocity of the LSR of{OMEGA}_0_=5.5+/-0.4mas/a (OB stars) and {OMEGA}_0_=5.4+/-0.5mas/a(cepheids), which is in agreement with the IAU 1985 value of{OMEGA}_0_=5.5mas/a. If we correct for probable rotations of the FK5system, the corresponding angular velocities are {OMEGA}_0_=6.0mas/a (OBstars) and {OMEGA}_0_=6.2mas/a (cepheids). These values agree betterwith the value of {OMEGA}_0_=6.4mas/a derived from the VLA measurementof the proper motion of SgrA^*^.

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.

An Einstein Observatory SAO-based catalog of B-type stars
About 4000 X-ray images obtained with the Einstein Observatory are usedto measure the 0.16-4.0 keV emission from 1545 B-type SAO stars fallingin the about 10 percent of the sky surveyed with the IPC. Seventy-fourdetected X-ray sources with B-type stars are identified, and it isestimated that no more than 15 can be misidentified. Upper limits to theX-ray emission of the remaining stars are presented. In addition tosummarizing the X-ray measurements and giving other relevant opticaldata, the present extensive catalog discusses the reduction process andanalyzes selection effects associated with both SAO catalog completenessand IPC target selection procedures. It is concluded that X-rayemission, at the level of Lx not less than 10 exp 30 ergs/s, is quitecommon in B stars of early spectral types (B0-B3), regardless ofluminosity class, but that emission, at the same level, becomes lesscommon, or nonexistent, in later B-type stars.

More radial-velocity measurements in young open clusters
Further high resolution radial-velocity measurements are reported in 23young open clusters using the Kitt Peak CCD coude spectrograph on the0.9-m feed telescope. The radial velocities for the cluster stars arederived with the technique of cross correlation. The internal precisionof the velocity measurements is typically 2 km/s for early type stars.From these new data and previously published velocities, the observedstars in two clusters, NGC 663 and NGC 2287, were found to show arelatively small dispersion in the measured mean velocities. Furtherobservations of stars in young clusters will be useful in helping toestablish an early-type-star-velocity standard system.

VBLUW photometry of the very young open cluster NGC 2264
This study presents and discusses VBLUW photometry of 112 stars with Vless than 13 in the area of the very young cluster NGC 2264.Temperatures, gravities, and reddening for stars hotter than 8400 K aredetermined. The reddening and the distance are found to be in goodagreement with the results of other references; to the existing list ofpresumable nonmembers, six stars are tentatively added as possiblenonmembers.

Walraven photometry of nearby southern OB associations
Homogeneous Walraven (VBLUW) photometry is presented for 5260 stars inthe regions of five nearby southern OB associations: Scorpio Centaurus(Sco OB2), Orion OB1, Canis Major OB1, Monoceros OB1, and Scutum OB2.Derived V and (B - V) in the Johnson system are included.

UVBY beta photometry of stars in the field of NGC 2244 and NGC 2264
Results are presented from uvby beta photometric observations of 34stars in the fields of NGC 2244 and NGC 2264. Photometric andastrometric indicators suggest that about a third of the sample arenonmembers of the clusters. Cluster color excesses are determined forthe two clusters. For the stars examined, log g and effectivetemperature are estimated. Also, stellar radii, masses, and positions inthe H-R diagram are calculated. The cluster ages and the main-sequencelifetime for massive stars show that star formation in the region hasnot been restricted to a single epoch.

On the distances to the young open clusters NGC 2244 and NGC 2264
A new determination of the distances of the young open clusters NGC 2244and NGC 2264 is presented. It is based on distance moduli for individualOB-type stars in which the influence of the anomalous ratio of total toselective extinction, if any, is taken into account. A discussion isincluded, first, of the accuracy of the color-difference method comparedto that of other current methods for determining R and, second, of theerrors in the determination of the distances for clusters embedded innonuniform H II regions. New photoelectric measurements (UBVRI andJHKLM), and new spectrophotometric data (IDS spectra) are presented forOB-type stars in these clusters as well as summaries of publishedphotometric data. The locations in the H-R diagram of the program starsseem to suggest that these massive stars are on the main sequence,supporting the idea of continuous star formation.

EXOSAT observations of active stellar coronae in the Cygnus Loop, T Tau and NGC 2264 regions
A highly variable point X-ray source, first seen by the Einstein IPC,has been positioned with the Exosat CMA and identified with a bright (V= 8.5) K0 star. Although in the direction of the southern half of theCygnus Loop, this star is almost certainly a foreground object andtypical of other active cool stars that are related to RS CVn systems.An Exosat program to study T Tauri stars failed to detect T Tau itself.However, a strong X-ray source was observed 15 arcmin from T Tau, whichin its turn had not been seen by Einstein. This new source has beenidentified with a hitherto unstudied 13 mag star which is likely to be adMe flare star. The young star cluster NGC 2264 was observed with theExosat CMA in an attempt to identify the sources found during anEinstein IPC study of S Mon. Apart from S Mon itself, only UV-brightobjects were seen, but several of these are considered likelycounterparts of the Einstein sources.

Catalog of BV magnitudes and spectral classes of 6000 stars
The present catalog, compiled at the Abastumani Observatory, contains BVmagnitudes and spectral classes of about 6000 stars up to V(lim) = 13.0min five circular areas of 18 sq deg located near the salactic-equatorplane. The catalog is intended for star-statistics studies ofstar-formation regions.

A catalog of selected compact radio sources for the construction of an extragalactic radio/optical reference frame
A catalog of 234 strong compact extragalactic radio sources that displayoptical counterparts is presented. This catalog identifies proposedsources for establishing an almost inertial reference frame againstwhich the motions of the earth, solar system, galactic objects, andspacecraft may be measured. This catalog also defines those sources forwhich precise optical positions should be determined in order to relatethis reference frame with the optical FK 5 fundamental system. Theaccuracy of the radio source positions of these sources is not greaterthan 0.1 arcsec with the majority not greater than 0.01 arcsec. Furtherrefinement to not greater than 0.005 arcsec by future observations isexpected soon.

Study of the open cluster NGC 2264
Photoelectric UBV magnitudes and colors have been determined for 138stars in NGC 2264, having a membership probability greater than 50percent on the basis of proper motion studies. The reddening across thecluster is variable. The distance modulus to the cluster is estimated at9.5 + or - 0.2 mag.

List of 333 variable, microvariable or suspected variable stars detected in the Geneva photometry
A list is presented of 333 stars, excluded from the GCVS and itssupplements, whose probability of variability ranges from high tocertain. The standard deviations observed in the V magnitude togetherwith the known spectral types, however, only allow speculation as to thetype of variable in question pending supplementary observations whichreveal the individual characteristics of these stars.

The young close binary HD 47732 in NGC 2264
HD 47732 is a short-period, ellipsoidal variable with some complicationsevident in its yellow light curve. The interpretation of the light curveis entirely dependent upon spectroscopic information. The seeming bestspectral classifications lead to a contact configuration. Spectral typesthat are only slightly later lead to a semidetached description. Eitherinterpretation of HD 47732 implies a distance of at least 1.2 kpc,considerably greater than the commonly accepted distance for the clusterNGC 2264 of which it is a member.
