A statistical analysis of the detection limits of fast photometry
This work investigates the statistical limits for the detection ofstellar variability using ground based fast photometry. We show thatwhen sky transparency variations are very low or have been efficientlyremoved from the raw light curve, the overall noise is of a MixedPoisson (MP) nature (photon noise mixed by scintillation). As aconsequence, three regimes appear for the detection of photometricvariations depending on the star's brightness (scintillation,scintillation and photon noise, photon noise and sky background). Theproposed analysis is mainly applied to the Indian sites of Manora Peak(existing 104 cm telescope) and Devasthal (future 1 m automatedtelescope, and 3 m telescope project). As shown by some examples, it canbe applied to any site with the corresponding parameters. For 1 m classtelescopes at an altitude of about 2000 m, the frontier magnitudesbetween the different detection regimes are about 10 mag and 15 mag. Byanalysing the corresponding statistics of the MP noise periodogram, theminimum amplitude variation that one can detect with a given confidencelevel is evaluated for each observational setting. For example, with a 3m telescope at about 2500 m, ≈120 μmag variations would bedetected in 2 h with a 99% confidence level for stars brighter thanmagnitude 12. For a star of 15th magnitude, ≈400 μmag oscillationswould still be detected at that level. These detection limits arediscussed in the light of observations obtained in Manora peak, andcompared to results obtained at different astronomical sites.

Effective temperature scale and bolometric corrections from 2MASS photometry
We present a method to determine effective temperatures, angularsemi-diameters and bolometric corrections for population I and II FGKtype stars based on V and 2MASS IR photometry. Accurate calibration isaccomplished by using a sample of solar analogues, whose averagetemperature is assumed to be equal to the solar effective temperature of5777 K. By taking into account all possible sources of error we estimateassociated uncertainties to better than 1% in effective temperature andin the range 1.0-2.5% in angular semi-diameter for unreddened stars.Comparison of our new temperatures with other determinations extractedfrom the literature indicates, in general, remarkably good agreement.These results suggest that the effective temperaure scale of FGK starsis currently established with an accuracy better than 0.5%-1%. Theapplication of the method to a sample of 10 999 dwarfs in the Hipparcoscatalogue allows us to define temperature and bolometric correction (Kband) calibrations as a function of (V-K), [m/H] and log g. Bolometriccorrections in the V and K bands as a function of T_eff, [m/H] and log gare also given. We provide effective temperatures, angularsemi-diameters, radii and bolometric corrections in the V and K bandsfor the 10 999 FGK stars in our sample with the correspondinguncertainties.

Objective-prism discoveries in the northern sky. I
Attention is given to 175 northern hemisphere stars whose newlyrecognized peculiar, or otherwise prepossessing characteristics havebeen noted in a preliminary inspection of moderate dispersion objectiveprism plates. The plates were obtained with a 10-deg prism. The starlist gives HD or BD, alpha and delta values, magnitude, and type.
