FUNDAMENTAL PARAMETERS AND CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF ARCTURUS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2011 We derive a self-consistent set of atmospheric parameters and abundances of 17 elements for the red giant star Arcturus: Teff = 4286+/-30 K, logg = 1.66+/-0.05, and [Fe/H] = -0.52+/-0.04. The effective temperature was determined using model atmosphere fits to the observed spectral energy distribution from the blue to the mid-infrared (0.44 to 10 um ...

Setting Up of the Strömvil System Standards and Standard Regions
Open Astronomy, 2003 CCD photometry of standard areas of the seven-color Strömvil photometric system in some open and globular clusters is described. The primary standards are being measured with a two-channel photoelectric photometer on the 1.5 meter telescope on Mt. Lemmon.

Some Photometric Characteristics of Population II Orbital Visual Binary Stars
Open Astronomy, 2003 A MV ,B−V diagram for metal-deficient, kinematically selected thick disk and halo visual binary stars with known orbits is presented. The magnitude differences Δm between the components are analyzed.

Fundamental Parameters of Cepheids [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1985 In the two centuries since the discovery of δ Cephei and η Aquilae, the study of Cepheids, and of pulsating stars in general, has become a very important field in astronomy. The usefulness of Cepheids, both as distance indicators and as test objects for stellar astrophysics, has been amply demonstrated, and if one just looks at the flood of papers on ...

Nonlinear estimation of the fundamental matrix with minimal parameters [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 2004 The purpose of this paper is to give a very simple method for nonlinearly estimating the fundamental matrix using the minimum number of seven parameters. Instead of minimally parameterizing it, we rather update what we call its orthonormal representation, which is based on its singular value decomposition.

Cross Catalogue Matching with Virtual Observatory and Parameterization of Stars
Open Astronomy, 2012 Virtual Observatory facilities allow users to make a fast and correct cross-matching of objects from various surveys. They yield multi-color photometry data (color indices) on registered objects and make it possible to determine stellar parameters.

Spectral Classification of Faint Carbon Stars
Open Astronomy, 2003 R-N classification of 187 faint carbon stars is based on the classical criteria adjusted to the yellow-red spectral region, with two new criteria added - the ratios of the red CN bands 6206/6332 (Å) and 6478/6631 (Å).

Open Astronomy, 2003 We present a new color index vs. absolute magnitude calibration of 2MASS JHK photometry. For the A0 to ~G5 and M segments of the main sequence information on the amount of interstellar extinction and its location in space may be obtained.
