Diffuse interstellar bands in RAVE survey spectra
We have used spectra of hot stars from the RAVE Survey in order toinvestigate the visibility and properties of five diffuse interstellarbands previously reported in the literature. The RAVE spectroscopicsurvey for Galactic structure and kinematics records CCD spectracovering the 8400-8800 Å wavelength region at 7500 resolvingpower. The spectra are obtained with the UK Schmidt at the AAO, equippedwith the 6dF multi-fiber positioner. The DIB at 8620.4 Å is by farthe strongest and cleanest of all DIBs occurring within the RAVEwavelength range, with no interference by underlying absorption stellarlines in hot stars. It correlates so tightly with reddening that itturns out to be a reliable tool to measure it, following the relationEB-V = 2.72 (± 0.03)× EW~(Å), validthroughout the general interstellar medium of our Galaxy. The presenceof a DIB at 8648 Å is confirmed. Its intensity appears unrelatedto reddening, in agreement with scanty and preliminary reports availablein the literature, and its measurability is strongly compromised bysevere blending with underlying stellar He I doublet at 8649 Å.The two weak DIBs at 8531 and 8572 Å do not appear real and shouldactually be blends of underlying stellar lines. The very weak DIB at8439 Å cannot be resolved within the profile of the much strongerunderlying hydrogen Paschen 18 stellar line.Table 1 is only available in electronic form at http://www.aanda.org
| Two-colour photometry for 9473 components of close Hipparcos double and multiple stars
Using observations obtained with the Tycho instrument of the ESAHipparcos satellite, a two-colour photometry is produced for componentsof more than 7 000 Hipparcos double and multiple stars with angularseparations 0.1 to 2.5 arcsec. We publish 9473 components of 5173systems with separations above 0.3 arcsec. The majority of them did nothave Tycho photometry in the Hipparcos catalogue. The magnitudes arederived in the Tycho B_T and V_T passbands, similar to the Johnsonpassbands. Photometrically resolved components of the binaries withstatistically significant trigonometric parallaxes can be put on an HRdiagram, the majority of them for the first time. Based on observationsmade with the ESA Hipparcos satellite.
