The 78th Name-List of Variable Stars
We present the next regular Name-List of variable stars containinginformation on 1706 variable stars recently designated in the system ofthe General Catalogue of Variable Stars.
| The Carina Spiral Feature: Strömgren-Hβ photometry approach. I. The photometric data-base
A data-base collating all uvbybeta photometry available at present forO-B9 stars brighter than 10th visual magnitude in the field of theCarina Spiral Feature is presented. The completeness and homogeneity ofthe data-base are discussed.Based on CDS data.Table 1 is only available in electronic form at the CDS via anonymousftp to cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr (130.79.128.5) or viahttp://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/cgi-bin/qcat?J/A+A/410/523
| Asteroseismological studies of three β Cephei stars: IL Vel, V433 Car and KZ Mus
We have acquired between 127 and 150 h of time-resolved multicolourphotometry for each of the three β Cephei stars IL Vel, V433 Carand KZ Mus over a time-span of 4 months from two observatories. Allthree objects are multiperiodic with at least three modes of pulsation.Mode identification from the relative colour amplitudes is performed. Weobtain unambiguous results for the two highest-amplitude modes of IL Vel(both are l= 1) and the three strongest modes of KZ Mus (l= 2, 0 and 1),but none for V433 Car. Spectroscopy shows the latter star to be a fastrotator (v sin i= 240 km s-1), whereas the other two havemoderate v sin i (65 and 47 km s-1, respectively).We performed model calculations using the Warsaw-New Jersey stellarevolution and pulsation code. We find that IL Vel is an object of about12 Msolar in the second half of its main-sequenceevolutionary track. Its two dipole modes are most probably rotationallysplit components of the mode originating as p1 on thezero-age main sequence; one of these modes is m= 0. V433 Car issuggested to be an unevolved 13-Msolar star just entering theβ Cephei instability strip. KZ Mus seems less massive (~12.7Msolar) and somewhat more evolved, and its radial mode isprobably the fundamental one. In this case its quadrupole mode would bethe one originating as g1, and its dipole mode would bep1.Two of our photometric comparison stars also turned out to be variable.HD 90434 is probably a new slowly pulsating B-type star, the dominantmode of which is a dipole, whereas the variability of HD 89768 seems tobe a result of binarity.It is suggested that mode identification of slowly rotating βCephei stars based on photometric colour amplitudes is reliable; weestimate that a relative accuracy of 3 per cent in the amplitudes issufficient for unambiguous identifications. Owing to the good agreementof our theoretical and observational results we conclude that theprospects for asteroseismology of multiperiodic slowly rotating βCephei stars are good.
| Strömgren and Hβ photometry of O and B type stars in star-forming regions. III. Carina Spiral Feature
Strömgren and Hβ photometry of O and B type stars, generallybrighter than 9.5 mag is reported for the field of the Carina SpiralFeature. The observations are based on the PPM catalogue identificationsand are designed to improve the completeness of the existing uvbybetadata for the bright early-type stars in the field. We present new uvbyphotometry for 283 stars and Hβ photometry for 225 of them. Theseobservations are part of an ongoing effort to study the structure ofselected star-forming regions in the Milky Way by means of uvbybetaphotometry. A comparison of the new data to other uvbybeta data sets forthis field is presented. Based on data from the Strömgren AutomaticTelescope of the Copenhagen University Observatory, La Silla. Tables 1and 2 are only available in electronic form at the CDS via anonymous ftpto 130.79.128.5 or via http://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/Abstract.html
| An Einstein Observatory SAO-based catalog of B-type stars
About 4000 X-ray images obtained with the Einstein Observatory are usedto measure the 0.16-4.0 keV emission from 1545 B-type SAO stars fallingin the about 10 percent of the sky surveyed with the IPC. Seventy-fourdetected X-ray sources with B-type stars are identified, and it isestimated that no more than 15 can be misidentified. Upper limits to theX-ray emission of the remaining stars are presented. In addition tosummarizing the X-ray measurements and giving other relevant opticaldata, the present extensive catalog discusses the reduction process andanalyzes selection effects associated with both SAO catalog completenessand IPC target selection procedures. It is concluded that X-rayemission, at the level of Lx not less than 10 exp 30 ergs/s, is quitecommon in B stars of early spectral types (B0-B3), regardless ofluminosity class, but that emission, at the same level, becomes lesscommon, or nonexistent, in later B-type stars.
