A homogeneous catalog of new UBV and H-beta photometry of B- and A-type stars in and around the Scorpius-Centaurus OB association
B- and A-type stars in and near the Sco-Cen OB association areinvestigated with UBV and H-beta photometry to acquire data relevant tothe luminosity function of Sco-Cen. The measurements generally consistof two 10-s integrations of U, B, V, (W, N) filters, and theobservations are corrected iteratively for atmospheric extinction andinstrumental response. The data presented give the mean V magnitude,mean B-V, mean U-B, and the estimated uncertainties for these values.The catalog provides a homogeneous catalog of data for a large fieldwith stellar objects delineating membership to the association Sco-Cenand that affect the luminosity function of the aggregate.
| Four-colour UVBY and H-beta photometry of all A3 to F5 stars brighter than m(pg) = about 11.0 mag in 6 Selected Areas close to the Galactic plane
Photometric observations of 540 A3-F5 stars in Selected Areas 171, 173,175, 177, 192, and 195 of the Potsdam survey (Becker and Brueck,1929-1938) are reported. Data obtained in the Stromgren uvby-beta systemusing a 6-channel spectrograph-photometer on the 50-cm Danish telescopeat ESO on 98 nights during 1986-1987 are presented in extensive tablesand graphs and briefly characterized. Comparisons with previousobservations of some program stars reveal no systematic differences inmagnitude or spectral indices.
| Estimation of spectral classifications for bright southern stars with interesting Stromgren indices
This paper investigates the degree of success with which uvby photometrycan be applied to predict spectral classifications for 947 A, F, and Gstars brighter than an apparent magnitude of 8.3 and with four-colorindices indicating some kind of interesting, unusual, or peculiarspectrum. One or several possible spectral classifications are estimatedfor each star from photometry alone, double stars are distinguished, andthe estimates are compared with published classifications. The resultsshow that the framework provided by uvby photometry can be extended toinclude most G and K stars, reddened stars, peculiar stars, and certaintypes of double star.
