Photometry of 39 PMS Variables in the Taurus-Auriga Region
Thirty nine PMS variable stars were observed in the direction of theTaurus-Auriga star-forming region.
| A study of Li-rich stars discovered by ROSAT in Taurus-Auriga
In recent years, large numbers of lithium-rich stars were discoverednear several nearby star forming regions (SFRs). We present a detailedstudy of those stars discovered in and near the central region of theTaurus-Auriga T Tauri association, based on high-resolution echellespectroscopy and proper motion data. We find that about 60 per cent ofour sample can be regarded as pre-main sequence (PMS) stars, while theremaining stars likely are foreground zero-age main sequence (ZAMS)stars. We conclude that the PMS stars are likely associated with theTaurus-Auriga SFR, while the ZAMS stars may represent a population ofsomewhat older Gould Belt stars. The fraction of ZAMS stars in theTaurus-Auriga sample studied in this work is larger than in a similarsample in the Lupus SFR, and we argue that this may be explained by thespatial structure of the Gould Belt and the Sun's location within it.Based on observations obtained at Observatoire de Haute Provence. Someof the observations reported here were obtained with the Multiple MirrorTelescope, a joint facility of the Smithsonian Institution and theUniversity of Arizona.
| Revisiting Hipparcos data for pre-main sequence stars
We cross-correlate the Herbig & Bell and Hipparcos Catalogues inorder to extract the results for young stellar objects (YSOs). Wecompare the distances of individual young stars and the distance oftheir presumably associated molecular clouds, taking into accountpost-Hipparcos distances to the relevant associations and usingHipparcos intermediate astrometric data to derive new parallaxes of thepre-main sequence stars based on their grouping. We confirm that YSOsare located in their associated clouds, as anticipated by a large bodyof work, and discuss reasons which make the individual parallaxes ofsome YSOs doubtful. We find in particular that the distance of TaurusYSOs as a group is entirely consistent with the molecular clouddistance, although Hipparcos distances of some faint Taurus-Auriga starsmust be viewed with caution. We then improve some of the solutions forthe binary and multiple pre-main sequence stars. In particular, weconfirm three new astrometric young binaries discovered by Hipparcos:RY Tau, UX Ori, and IXOph. Based on observations made with the ESA Hipparcosastrometry satellite
| UvbyHbeta_ photometry of main sequence A type stars.
We present Stroemgren uvby and Hbeta_ photometry for a set of575 northern main sequence A type stars, most of them belonging to theHipparcos Input Catalogue, with V from 5mag to 10mag and with knownradial velocities. These observations enlarge the catalogue we began tocompile some years ago to more than 1500 stars. Our catalogue includeskinematic and astrophysical data for each star. Our future goal is toperform an accurate analysis of the kinematical behaviour of these starsin the solar neighbourhood.
| 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.
| A new optical extinction law and distance estimate for the Taurus-Auriga molecular cloud
This paper presents optical spectrophotometry of field stars projectedon the Taurus-Auriga molecular cloud. We derive extinction laws forheavily reddened stars in this sample and show that the reddening lawthrough the dark cloud is nearly identical to the standard law forlambda-lambda(3600-6100) and AV approximately less than 3mag. Our spectroscopic parallaxes suggest a distance of 140 +/- 10 pcfor the northern portion of the cloud and show no compelling evidencefor a substantial variation in distance across the leading edge of thecloud.
| Visual multiples. VIII - 1000 MK types
A total of 1000 new classifications are given for stars brighter than B= 8.0 mag in the Aitken double star catalog. The classificationssupplement 865 classifications obtained in 1981 and 1984. Among thenewly discovered stars are 12 new Ap stars, eight Lambda Bootis stars,one Ba II star, and 60 Am stars. A detailed list of the newclassifications is given.
| Interstellar extinction in the Taurus dark clouds. II
The results of photoelectric photometry of 89 stars in the Vilniusseven-color system in the area of the Taurus dark clouds withcoordinates (1950) 4h16m-4h33m, +16 deg-+20 deg are presented.Photometric spectral types, absolute magnitudes, color excesses,interstellar extinctions and distances of the stars are determined. Thedistance of the dark nebula is found to be 140 pc and is in goodagreement with the distance determined by Straizys and Meistas (1980)for the dark nebula Khavtassi 286, 278. The average extinction in theinvestigated area is of the order of 1.4.
| Spectral types for early-type stars observed by SKYLAB
MK spectral types are presented for 246 early-type stars observed withthe S-019 ultraviolet stellar astronomy experiment on Skylab. K-linetypes are also given where applicable, and various peculiar stars areidentified. The peculiar stars include five silicon stars, a shell star,a helium-rich star, a silicon-strontium star, a chromium-europium star,and two marginal metallic-line stars.
