Minislice at the North Galactic Pole. II.
A catalogue of 328 positions, redshifts, bJ magnitudes and bJ-rF colours of galaxies down to bJ=20.5 in 4x0.67 degrees slice close to the North Galactic Pole is presented. Two... -
UBV Photoelectric Sequences in SA 92-115
The UBV system was originally defined by ten bright standard stars, primarily in the northern sky. These stars are too bright to be used with large telescopes and cannot be... -
Limb-darkening for Space Mission GAIA
In the past few years, the number of space missions with astrophysical purposes has increased, with COROT, KEPLER, MOST and more recently TESS. Two of the most important... -
Galaxies Chemical and photometric evolution models
We summarize the updated set of multiphase chemical evolution models performed with 44 theoretical radial mass initial distributions and 10 possible values of efficiencies to... -
All-sky spectrally matched Tycho2 stars
We present fitted UBVRI-ZY and u'g'r'i'z' magnitudes, spectral types, and distances for 2.4 million stars, derived from synthetic photometry of a library spectrum that best... -
Optical Imaging of 57 spiral galaxies
We present optical observations of a sample of 57 spiral galaxies and describe the procedures followed to reduce the data. We have obtained images in the optical B and I broad... -
Direct imaging of exoplanets
High-contrast imaging can find and characterize gas giant planets around nearby young stars and the closest M stars, complementing radial velocity and astrometric searches by... -
HST WFPC2 star clusters in M31. II.
This paper reports on a survey of star clusters in M31 based on archival images from the Hubble Space Telescope. Paper I reported results from images obtained with the Wide... -
HST WFPC2 star clusters in M31
As a followup to the automated cluster search carried out by Williams & Hodge (2001ApJ...548..190W), we have examined 39 Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Planetary Camera 2... -
M48 (NGC 2548) BATC photometry and membership
Beijing-Arizona-Taiwan-Connecticut (BATC) multiband photometric data in the field of open cluster M48 are used to determine its membership. By comparing observed spectral energy... -
BVI photometry in NGC 300
Based on 13 nights of observations of four fields in NGC 300, we have set up an extensive sequence of stars with accurate BVI photometry covering a relatively large (25'x25')... -
Galactic reddening maps
Accurate maps of Galactic reddening are important for a number of applications, such as mapping the peculiar velocity field in the nearby universe. Of particular concern are... -
BATC photometry on A119
This paper presents multicolor optical photometry of the nearby galaxy cluster Abell 119 (z=0.0442) with the Beijing-Arizona-Taiwan-Connecticut system of 15 intermediate bands.... -
VR light curves of EI CVn
We present charge-coupled device (CCD) photometry for the short-period K-type binary EI CVn, observed on 2009 February 28 at the Xinglong Station of National Astronomical... -
BATC photometry in A98 cluster
An optical photometric observation with the Beijing-Arizona-Taiwan-Connecticut (BATC) multicolor system is carried out for A98 (z=0.104), a galaxy cluster with two large... -
New light elements for 28 red periodic var.
We could study the variables thanks to the publicly available electronic archives of CCD observations of the ASAS-3 project (Pojmanski 2002, Cat. ) and to images of the US Naval... -
I light curves of RR Lyrae from OGLE II
We present the discovery of ten RR Lyrae variables. They were found in a search for new variables in the OGLE II Photometric Database (Szymanski 2005AcA....55...43S, Udalski et... -
Light elements for 25 Mira type variables
We could study the variables thanks to the publicly available electronic archives of CCD observations of the ASAS-3 project (Pojmanski, 2002, Cat. ) and to images of the US... -
Two new cataclysmic variables in Lyra
I report on the discovery of two cataclysmic variables in the same field in Lyra, originally identified on the base of their magnitudes in the USNO-B1.0 catalog and on Palomar... -
12 M92 variables Photographic observations
The periods and the light curves of 12 variable stars of the globular cluster M92 have been studied analyzing 176 plates obtained with the 60 cm reflector of Bologna Observatory...
