A Method of Correcting Near-Infrared Spectra for Telluric Absorption We present a method for correcting near-infrared medium-resolutionspectra for telluric absorption. The method makes use of a spectrum ofan A0 V star, observed near in time and close in air mass to the targetobject, and a high-resolution model of Vega, to construct a telluriccorrection spectrum that is free of stellar absorption features. Thetechnique was designed specifically to perform telluric corrections onspectra obtained with SpeX, a 0.8-5.5 μm medium-resolutioncross-dispersed spectrograph at the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility,and uses the fact that for medium resolutions there exist spectralregions uncontaminated by atmospheric absorption lines. However, it isalso applicable (in a somewhat modified form) to spectra obtained withother near-infrared spectrographs. An IDL-based code that carries outthe procedures is available for downloading via the World Wide Web.Based on observations obtained with the Infrared Telescope Facility,which is operated by the University of Hawaii under contract to theNational Aeronautics and Space Administration.
| A catalog of rotational and radial velocities for evolved stars Rotational and radial velocities have been measured for about 2000evolved stars of luminosity classes IV, III, II and Ib covering thespectral region F, G and K. The survey was carried out with the CORAVELspectrometer. The precision for the radial velocities is better than0.30 km s-1, whereas for the rotational velocity measurementsthe uncertainties are typically 1.0 km s-1 for subgiants andgiants and 2.0 km s-1 for class II giants and Ib supergiants.These data will add constraints to studies of the rotational behaviourof evolved stars as well as solid informations concerning the presenceof external rotational brakes, tidal interactions in evolved binarysystems and on the link between rotation, chemical abundance and stellaractivity. In this paper we present the rotational velocity v sin i andthe mean radial velocity for the stars of luminosity classes IV, III andII. Based on observations collected at the Haute--Provence Observatory,Saint--Michel, France and at the European Southern Observatory, LaSilla, Chile.

| The Perkins catalog of revised MK types for the cooler stars A catalog is presented listing the spectral types of the G, K, M, and Sstars that have been classified at the Perkins Observatory in therevised MK system. Extensive comparisons have been made to ensureconsistency between the MK spectral types of stars in the Northern andSouthern Hemispheres. Different classification spectrograms have beengradually improved in spite of some inherent limitations. In thecatalog, the full subclasses used are the following: G0, G5, G8, K0, K1,K2, K3, K4, K5, M0, M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6, M7, and M8. Theirregularities are the price paid for keeping the general scheme of theoriginal Henry Draper classification.
