Hipparcos red stars in the HpV_T2 and V I_C systems
For Hipparcos M, S, and C spectral type stars, we provide calibratedinstantaneous (epoch) Cousins V - I color indices using newly derivedHpV_T2 photometry. Three new sets of ground-based Cousins V I data havebeen obtained for more than 170 carbon and red M giants. These datasetsin combination with the published sources of V I photometry served toobtain the calibration curves linking Hipparcos/Tycho Hp-V_T2 with theCousins V - I index. In total, 321 carbon stars and 4464 M- and S-typestars have new V - I indices. The standard error of the mean V - I isabout 0.1 mag or better down to Hp~9 although it deteriorates rapidly atfainter magnitudes. These V - I indices can be used to verify thepublished Hipparcos V - I color indices. Thus, we have identified ahandful of new cases where, instead of the real target, a random fieldstar has been observed. A considerable fraction of the DMSA/C and DMSA/Vsolutions for red stars appear not to be warranted. Most likely suchspurious solutions may originate from usage of a heavily biased color inthe astrometric processing.Based on observations from the Hipparcos astrometric satellite operatedby the European Space Agency (ESA 1997).}\fnmsep\thanks{Table 7 is onlyavailable in electronic form at the CDS via anonymous ftp tocdsarc.u-strasbg.fr (130.79.128.5) or viahttp://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/cgi-bin/qcat?J/A+A/397/997
| New periodic variables from the Hipparcos epoch photometry
Two selection statistics are used to extract new candidate periodicvariables from the epoch photometry of the Hipparcos catalogue. Theprimary selection criterion is a signal-to-noise ratio. The dependenceof this statistic on the number of observations is calibrated usingabout 30000 randomly permuted Hipparcos data sets. A significance levelof 0.1 per cent is used to extract a first batch of candidate variables.The second criterion requires that the optimal frequency be unaffectedif the data are de-trended by low-order polynomials. We find 2675 newcandidate periodic variables, of which the majority (2082) are from theHipparcos`unsolved' variables. Potential problems with theinterpretation of the data (e.g. aliasing) are discussed.

We present the Name-list introducing GCVS names for 3153 variable starsdiscovered by the Hipparcos mission.
| On the local environment of extragalactic supernovae
Since Type II supernovae (SNs II) have never been observed in ellipticalgalaxies and tend to occur in the arms of spirals, it is generallybelieved that they are associated with the classic Population I tracersof the arms: giant H II regions and OB associations. However, thisassociation has never been directly demonstrated with an adequate numberof supernovae. An attempt was made to search for evidence of massivestar formation in the immediate vicinity of 56 SNs II. High-qualityoptical galaxy photos have been located for 29 out of the 56 SNs II. Ofthese 29 supernovae, 25 lie toward or very near nebulous knots, theplausible signature of star-forming complexes. It is argued that such alarge number of apparent coincidences cannot result from chancesuperposition. These coincidences provide the most direct evidence todate to support the hypothesis that most, if not all, SNs II arise frommassive progenitors. The local environment of Type I supernovae inspiral and irregular galaxies is also discussed.
