Spectroscopic study of the open cluster Blanco 1
Aims: As a part of our program on binaries in open clusters, we presenta spectroscopic study of the bright stars of Blanco 1 aimed at detectingand characterizing spectroscopic binaries. Methods: Forty fivestars previously mentioned as cluster candidates, plus another 24 starsin a wider region around the cluster were observed repeatedly during 6years, with a spectral resolving power 13 300. Radial velocities weremeasured by cross-correlations. Results: We obtained a meancluster velocity of 6.2 ± 0.3 km s-1 and determinedkinematic membership. Eleven spectroscopic binaries were detected, andorbital solutions are presented for eight of them. Six binaries areconfirmed to be members of the cluster. All of them are single-linedspectroscopic systems with periods in the range 1.9-1380 days.Considering all suspected binaries, the cluster binary frequency amountsto about 50%.Based on observations obtained at the Complejo Astronómico ElLeoncito (CASLEO), Argentina.

Absolute proper motions of open clusters. I. Observational data
Mean proper motions and parallaxes of 205 open clusters were determinedfrom their member stars found in the Hipparcos Catalogue. 360 clusterswere searched for possible members, excluding nearby clusters withdistances D < 200 pc. Members were selected using ground basedinformation (photometry, radial velocity, proper motion, distance fromthe cluster centre) and information provided by Hipparcos (propermotion, parallax). Altogether 630 certain and 100 possible members werefound. A comparison of the Hipparcos parallaxes with photometricdistances of open clusters shows good agreement. The Hipparcos dataconfirm or reject the membership of several Cepheids in the studiedclusters.

Spectroscopy of Hot Stars in the Galactic Halo. II. The Identification and Classification of Horizontal-Branch and Other A-Type Stars
We discuss a spectroscopic and photometric technique that enables theidentification and classification of field horizontal-branch (FHB) andother A-type stars, even from relatively low signal-to-noise ratiomedium-resolution spectra. This technique makes use of broadband UBVcolors predicted from model atmosphere calculations and Balmer lineprofiles and Ca II K equivalent widths determined from synthetic spectrato estimate the physical parameters T_eff, log g, and [Fe/H] for starsin the effective temperature range 6000-10,000 K. A comparison of ourmethod with high signal-to-noise ratio spectra of standard starsindicates a scatter in the derived parameters of sigma(T_eff)=+/-250 K,sigma(log g)=+/-0.14 dex, and sigma([Fe/H])=+/-0.12 dex. This precisionallows for a separation of low surface gravity FHB and other, generallyhigher surface gravity, A-type (and somewhat later) stars. We alsodevelop a synthetic-template comparison technique, which is veryeffective in the identification of metallic-line and peculiar A-typestars. A detailed investigation of the influence of noise in the spectraon the determination of physical parameters shows that, for spectra withsignal-to-noise ratios in the range 10

Open clusters with Hipparcos. I. Mean astrometric parameters
New memberships, mean parallaxes and proper motions of all 9 openclusters closer than 300 pc (except the Hyades) and 9rich clusters between 300 and 500 pc have been computed using Hipparcosdata. Precisions, ranging from 0.2 to 0.5 mas for parallaxes and 0.1 to0.5 mas/yr for proper motions, are of great interest for calibratingphotometric parallaxes as well as for kinematical studies. Carefulinvestigations of possible biases have been performed and no evidence ofsignificant systematic errors on the mean cluster parallaxes has beenfound. The distances and proper motions of 32 more distant clusters,which may be used statistically, are also indicated. Based onobservations made with the ESA Hipparcos astrometry satellite

Spectroscopy of the open cluster Blanco 1 II. H alpha emission as an indicator of relative age
We present the results of H alpha (6562\AA) and Li i (6708\AA)observations of 114 low-mass stars of the young open cluster Blanco 1.We also present observations of 30 stars in Ca ii(K). This work extendsthe first Blanco 1 spectroscopic study of Panagi et al. (1994). From asample of four well-studied clusters, including Blanco 1, we find thatthe fraction of H alpha emission-line stars amongst K dwarfs is a goodindicator of relative age, with a smaller fraction indicative of olderage. Blanco 1 shows a relatively small fraction of emitters,inconsistent with previous age estimates for the cluster. We estimatethe cluster age to to be 90 +/- 25 Myr, slightly older than thePleiades. The method is shown to be more sensitive to age than lithiumand a useful alternative to other age measurement techniques. Thevariation of H alpha with (B-V) is similar to that observed in the oldersolar neighbourhood dwarfs, suggesting that, at least for theabsorption-line stars, the contribution of stellar rotation to theequivalent width is unclear. We combine both spectroscopy and photometryto revise cluster membership and give accurate positions for all thesestars.

Spectroscopy of the young cluster Blanco 1
We present spectroscopic observations of some 115 stars of the clusterBlanco 1, extending from the Ca II(H,K) region to the Ca II(I-R)triplet, supporting an age similar to that of the young cluster alphaPersei. The H-alpha absorption equivalent with vs (B - V) diagram formsa well-defined locus, with decreasing absorption equivalent width fordecreasing effective temperature, akin to solar neighborhood dwarfs. Alarge spread in the Ca II surface flux, as a function of (B - V), alsoindicates the presence of a high degree of surface inhomogeneity,synonymous with high magnetic activity in young stars. A drop-off in theCa II flux at (B - V) = 1.0 is also similar to the solar neighborhoodstars, and shows that the primary chromospheric cooling changes from theCa II and Mg II lines to the Balmer lines. The mean chromospherictemperature for stars at 4800 K lies between 8000 K and 10,000 K, basedon theoretical models, which is somewhat higher than the older solarneighborhood dwarfs. The high mean Ca II surface flux of the sample isalso consistent with that of other young clusters. We were able tomeasure the equivalent width of the Li(6708) line, whose strength as afunction of (B - V) indicates an age similar to the young cluster alphaPersei. The lithium abundance decreases with decreasing effectivetemperature, consistent with the premise of lithium depletion in starswith larger convection zones. Using published photometry and a recentZero Age Main Sequence (ZAMS) fitting method, we also re-define thedistance to the cluster to be 246 pc.

Early type high-velocity stars in the solar neighborhood. IV - Four-color and H-beta photometry
Results are presented from photometric obaservations in the Stromgrenuvby four-color and H-beta systems of early-type high-velocity stars inthe solar neighborhood. Several types of photometrically peculiar starsare selected on the basis of their Stromgren indices and areprovisionally identified as peculiar A stars, field horizontal-branchstars, metal-poor stars near the Population II and old-disk turnoffs,metal-poor blue stragglers, or metallic-line A stars. Numerousphotometrically normal stars were also found.

The late A-type stars - Refined MK classification, confrontation with Stromgren photometry, and the effects of rotation
The MK spectral classification for late A-type stars is refined and theeffects of rotation of spectral classification and uvby(beta) photometryfor these stars are examined. It is found that, for A3 stars, the4417/4481 A wavelength ratio produces results that are inconsistent withthe Stark broadening of the H lines. It is suggested that this ratio isnot useful as a luminosity criterion at any spectral type.Self-consistent sequences of narrow- and broadline standards areestablished. The results of the refined classification system arecompared with Stromgren photometry, showing a set of low-v sin i A-typestars with anomalously large delta(c1) indices for theirluminosity types. It is proposed that these stars are rapid rotatorsseen at fairly low inclination angles.

UBV and uvby-beta photometry of stars in the region of the Zeta SCULPTORIS cluster
Photoelectric observations of 130 stars in the region of Zeta Sculptorishave been obtained in UBV and uvby-beta. A total of 32 stars areidentified as cluster members, and several other F and G type stars areidentified as probable members. Results indicate an interstellarreddening of E(B-V) = 0.02 mag and that the cluster is slightly metaldeficient.

Spectral types in the Zeta SCULPTORIS open cluster
The spectral types of 20 stars in the Blanco 1 open cluster (ZetaSculptoris) are reported. Spectral classification in the MK system wasperformed on the basis of 125-A/mm dispersion spectra obtained with a0.9-m telescope and a Cassegrain spectrograph. Of the stars classified,one classical Am star, one peculiar star with a weak K-line and one Apstar with marginal Si II lines enhancement were found, while the starZeta Scl itself is observed to be a main sequence object and thusprobably a foreground star. An H-R diagram of the cluster is alsopresented, and other probable members and nonmembers are indicated.
