A seismological analysis of δ Scuti stars in the Pleiades cluster A comparison between the oscillation frequencies of six multi-periodicδ Scuti stars of the Pleiades cluster and the eigenfrequencies ofrotating stellar models that match the corresponding stellar parametershas been carried out. The assumption that all the stars considered havesome common parameters, such as metallicity, distance or age, is imposedas a constraint. As a result, we have a best fit solution associatedwith a cluster metallicity of [Fe/H]≃ 0.067, an age between 70× 106 and 100 × 106 yr and a distancemodulus of mV-MV=5.60-5.70 mag. All the stars werefound to oscillate mainly in non-radial, low degree, low order p modes.Estimates of mass and rotation rates for each star are also obtained.
| Asteroseismic constraints on the Pleiades distance The global parameters of the Pleiades cluster are derived from thecomparison of observed and computed frequencies of six multi-periodicdelta Scuti stars. The best frequency fits lead to a distance modulusof 5.70 in good agreement with the pre-Hipparcos MS fitting methods.
| Zero-Age Main Sequence in the HR Diagram of the Vilnius Photometric System The zero-age main sequence for solar metallicity stars in the absolutemagnitude vs. color diagram of the Vilnius seven-color photometricsystem is determined. The calibration is based on the results ofphotoelectric photometry of stars in the Hyades, Pleiades and Praesepeopen clusters and the Ori OB1 association. A theoretical Victoria-Reginaisochrone, corresponding to an age of 10 million years, coincides wellwith the lower envelope of the unevolved main sequence.
| Pulsational frequencies in the delta Scuti stars V624 Tauri and HD 23194. Results of the STEPHI X campaign on the Pleiades cluster The results of the tenth multi-site campaign of the STEPHI network arereported. The delta Scuti stars V624 Tau (HD 23156) and HD 23194,belonging to the Pleiades cluster, were observed photometrically for 34days on three continents during 1999 November-December. An overall runof 343 hours of data was collected. Seven frequencies for V624 Tau andtwo frequencies for HD 23194 have been found above a 99% confidencelevel. These results greatly improve those found in previous studieswith much less data. A preliminary comparison of observed andtheoretical frequencies suggests that both stars may oscillate withradial and non-radial p modes of radial orders typical among delta Scutistars.
| The pre-main-sequence star IP Persei We present the results of high- and low-resolution spectroscopic andbroadband multicolour photometric observations of the emission-lineA-type star IP Per. Significant variations of the Balmer line profilesand near-IR brightness are detected. Comparison with the spectra ofother stars and theoretical models allowed us to derive its fundamentalparameters as follows: T_eff =~ 8000 K, log g =~ 4.4, logLbol/Lsun =~ 1.0. They correspond to the MK typeA7 v. We also found that the metallicity of the object's atmosphere isnearly 40 per cent that of the Sun. Our result for the star's gravityimplies that it is located at the zero-age main-sequence. We concludethat IP Per is a pre-main-sequence Herbig Ae star, and belongs to thegroup of UX Ori-type stars showing irregular photometric minima. Arecent result by Kovalchuk & Pugach (\cite{kp97}), that IP Per is anevolved high-luminosity star, is not confirmed. The discrepancy in thelog g determination, which led to the difference in the luminosity,seems to be due to uncertainties in the échelle data reductionfor broad lines and a different estimate for the star's temperature.
| The 76th Name-List of Variable Stars We present the next regular Name-List of variable stars containinginformation on 1406 variable stars recently designated in the system ofthe General Catalogue of Variable Stars.
| Comparative morphology of ALIVARS and RCB type stars Some conclusions were drawn from the analysis of the following specificfeatures of the rapid Algol-Like Irregular VARiable Stars (ALIVARS): 1)general mode of variability for ALIVARS and R CrB, 2) long periods ofnearly constant brightness, 3) specific "color - V-magnitude"dependence,4) Anticorrelation between V brightness and degree ofpolarization, 5) identity of the optical properties of the RCB andALIVARS circumstellar dust, 6) cyclic light variations at normalbrighness, 7) connection between cyclic light variations and the onsetof drastic light fadings. We found that ALIVARS have some morphologicalfeatures more in common with evolved RCB-type stars rather than withyoung Herbig Ae/Be stars. Moreover, the results of the analysis of theALIVARS evolution characteristic - a) space distribution of individualALIVARS and star formation regions, b) loci on the H-R diagram, c)equivalent widths of hydrogen absorption lines, d) relative hydrogendeficiency of two ALIVARS investigated (70% of the solar abundance for V351 Ori and 30% for RZ Psc), e) mean group parameter Vsini of ALIVARS,f) luminosity of ALIVARS �alpha emission envelopes- unambiguously point that ALIVARS are not so young as Herbig Ae/Bestars and they have left the main sequence. Thus, we have encounteredthe fact of stellar mimicry: ALIVARS tend to look out as young stars,having at that time features of rather evolved stars. Relying on suchfindings, we conclude the same ALIVARS should not be further regarded asyoung stars of the HAEBES group.
| 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.

| A revised catalogue of delta Sct stars An extensive and up-dated list of delta Sct stars is presented here.More than 500 papers, published during the last few years, have beenrevised and 341 new variables have been added to our last list, sixyears ago. This catalogue is intended to be a comprehensive review onthe observational characteristics of all the delta Sct stars known untilnow, including stars contained in earlier catalogues together with othernew discovered variables, covering information published until January2000. In summary, 636 variables, 1149 references and 182 individualnotes are presented in this new list.

| 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.
| Eight new δ Scuti stars HD 23194, a member of the Pleiades, was found to pulsate with a periodof about 30min. The literature on the star is reviewed, and it isconcluded that it may be a marginal Am star in a binary system. HD 95321is an evolved Am (ρ Puppis) star with a 5.1-h periodicity. Modeidentification of its pulsation, based on multicolour photometry,suggests that the oscillation is probably non-radial with l=2. We alsoreport on the discovery of six other new δ Scuti stars, some ofwhich may be pulsating in gravity modes.
| 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).
| 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%.
| Atmospheric chemical composition of Am stars in the Pleiades Based on new spectroscopic observational data (high-resolution CCDspectrograms obtained with the coude spectrograph of the 2.6-mtelescope), we perform a model-atmosphere analysis of six A stars in thePleiades cluster which are classified as metallic-line stars. Wedetermine the atmospheric parameters of these stars and estimate theirmasses, radii, and luminosities from a comparison with evolutionarycalculations. Acomparison of the observed and synthetic spectra hasyielded the atmospheric abundances of O, Si, Ca, Fe, and Ba in thestars. Using the currently available oscillator strengths, we determinethe iron abundance in the atmospheres of the stars by themodel-atmosphere method from published measurements of line equivalentwidths. These results and the results of our previous abundance analysisof Coma stars lend support to the conclusion that the differences in theatmospheric abundances of chemically peculiar stars in the same clusterare real.
| Metal abundances of A-type stars in galactic clusters. II. Pleiades, Coma Berenices, Hyades, and Praesepe A study of chemical composition for 23 A-type stars in four nearby openclusters (Pleiades, Coma, Hyades and Praesepe) has derived detailedabundances for Mg, Ca, Sc, Cr, Fe, and Ni from high resolutionspectroscopy. These results are discussed using the microscopicdiffusion model, which yields time-dependent element stratifications asin the case of Am stars. For the Pleiades, the youngest cluster, we findseveral atypical abundance patterns, which may be transient phases ofthe Am phenomenon. The members of the older clusters show globally moreclassical patterns. Based on observations collected at the Observatoirede Haute-Provence (France)
| Determination of lg G of several variable Herbig Ae/Be stars. Echelle spectrogrammes of 19 variable Herbig Ae/Be stars were obtainedin 1988-1992 in the wavelength interval 4000-7000Å with thespectral complex ``Zebra" at the 6-m telescope of Special AstrophysicalObservatory, Russian Academy of Sciences (SAO RAS). Kurucz's models wereemployed for the analysis of the hydrogen absorption line profiles. Forall programme and standard stars lg(g) gravity parameters were obtained.The location of the stars on the "lg(g)-T_eff_" diagram does not agreewith the hypothesis that the studied objects are pre-main sequencestars.
| Spectrophotometry of 237 Stars in 7 Open Clusters Spectrophotometry is presented for 237 stars in 7 nearby open clusters:Hyades, Pleiades, Alpha Persei, Praesepe, Coma Berenices, IC 4665, andM39. The observations were taken by Lee McDonald and David Bursteinusing the Wampler single-channel scanner on the Crossley 0.9m telescopeat Lick Observatory from July 1973 through December 1974. Sixteenbandpasses spanning the spectral range 3500 Angstroms to 7780 Angstromswere observed for each star, with bandwidths 32Angstroms, 48 Angstromsor 64 Angstroms. Data are standardized to the Hayes-Latham system tomutual accuracy of 0.016 mag per passband. The accuracy of thespectrophotometry is assessed in three ways on a star-by-star basis.First, comparisons are made with previously published spectrophotometryfor 19 stars observed in common. Second, (B-V) colors and uvby colorsare compared for 236 stars and 221 stars, respectively. Finally,comparsions are made for 200 main sequence stars to the spectralsynthesis models of Kurucz, fixing log g = 4.0 and [Fe/H] = 0.0, andonly varying effective temperature. The accuracy of tests using uvbycolors and the Kurucz models are shown to track each other closely,yielding an accuracy estimate (1 sigma ) of 0.01 mag for the 13 colorsformed from bandpasses longward of the Balmer jump, and 0.02 mag for the3 colors formed from the three bandpasses below the Balmer jump. Incontrast, larger scatter is found relative to the previously publishedspectrophotometry of Bohm-Vitense & Johnson (16 stars in common) andGunn & Stryker (3 stars). We also show that the scatter in the fitsof the spectrophotometric colors and the uvby filter colors is areasonable way to identify the observations of which specific stars areaccurate to 1 sigma , 2 sigma , .... As such, the residuals from boththe filter color fits and the Kurucz model fits are tabulated for eachstar where it was possible to make a comparison, so users of these datacan choose stars according to the accuracy of the data that isappropriate to their needs. The very good agreement between the modelsand these data verifies the accuracy of these data, and also verifiesthe usefulness of the Kurucz models to define spectrophotometry forstars in this temperature range (>5000 K). These data define accuratespectrophotometry of bright, open cluster stars that can be used as asecondary flux calibration for CCD-based spectrophotometric surveys.

| The Pleiades open cluster: abundances of Li, Al, Si, S, Fe, Ni, and EU in normal A and AM stars. In the first of a series of papers on the A stars in open clusters,normal A and Am stars in the Pleiades were observed with theCanada-France-Hawaii telescope at high spectral resolution and highsignal-to-noise ratios. Photospheric abundances have been determined forLi, Al, Si, S, Fe, Ni, and Eu from model atmosphere abundance analysis.The A stars of the Pleiades are at the beginning of their Main Sequenceevolution. At this stage, Li is clearly deficient in the Am starscompared with the normal A stars (-0.65 dex), and the abundance of Fe isthe same for both stellar groups, twice its original solar value asgiven by the Pleiades F stars. These Fe results are unexpected since,firstly, normal A stars are thought to have normal abundances and,secondly, Am stars are classically said to be overabundant in Fecompared with normal A stars. The maximum Li abundance of the cluster isfound in the normal A stars with log N (Li)=3.55+/-0.1 on the scale logN(H)=12.0. These stars seem to have preserved their original Li betterthan any other cooler stars of the Pleiades cluster. The behavior of Liin the slow-rotator Am stars versus the rapid-rotator normal A stars inthe Pleiades is exactly comparable with that found in the "low v sin i"versus "high v sin i" stars with similar masses in the Orionassociation. Could it be that Li differentiation between Am and normal Astars takes place during their pre-Main-Sequence evolution? The Liresults in the Am stars challenge predictions from model envelopescoupling diffusion and evolution (plus mass loss) in non rotating starssince only strong underabundances are expected at the age of thePleiades.

| 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.
| 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.
| ICCD speckle observations of binary stars. IX - A duplicity survey of the Pleiades, Praesepe, and IC 4665 clusters Multiplicity of stars within clusters is a well-studied phenomenon.However, recent survey work done on the Hyades by Mason et al. (1993)would seem to indicate that even in the most often studied clusters,there may be binaries yet undiscovered. In order to expand the sample ofcluster binaries with potentially short-period visual orbits, a specklesurvey of 45 Pleiades, 54 Praesepe, and 22 IC 4665 bright stars (V isless than 10) for possible multiplicity was conducted at the KPNO 4 mMayall telescope between 1987 October and 1991 November. Of these, threenew binaries have been discovered: one in the Pleiades where the newcomponent may be spectroscopic, another in Praesepe which has beenconfirmed from examinations of archival observations and also has beenresolved by occultation, and the third in IC 4665. Continued study ofthese new binary stars could further refine the cluster distance modulias well as the cluster mass-luminosity relations.
| 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.
