| How many Hipparcos Variability-Induced Movers are genuine binaries?
Hipparcos observations of some variable stars, and especially oflong-period (e.g. Mira) variables, reveal a motion of the photocentercorrelated with the brightness variation (variability-induced mover -VIM), suggesting the presence of a binary companion. A re-analysis ofthe Hipparcos photometric and astrometric data does not confirm the VIMsolution for 62 among the 288 VIM objects (21%) in the Hipparcoscatalogue. Most of these 288 VIMs are long-period (e.g. Mira) variables(LPV). The effect of a revised chromaticity correction, which accountsfor the color variations along the light cycle, was then investigated.It is based on ``instantaneous'' V-I color indices derived fromHipparcos and Tycho-2 epoch photometry. Among the 188 LPVs flagged asVIM in the Hipparcos catalogue, 89 (47%) are not confirmed as VIM afterthis improved chromaticity correction is applied. This dramatic decreasein the number of VIM solutions is not surprising, since the chromaticitycorrection applied by the Hipparcos reduction consortia was based on afixed V-I color. Astrophysical considerations lead us to adopt a morestringent criterion for accepting a VIM solution (first-kind risk of0.27% instead of 10% as in the Hipparcos catalogue). With this moresevere criterion, only 27 LPV stars remain VIM, thus rejecting 161 ofthe 188 (86%) of the LPVs defined as VIMs in the Hipparcos catalogue.Based on observations from the Hipparcos astrometric satellite operatedby the European Space Agency (ESA 1997).Table 1 is also 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/399/1167
| 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
| The ISO-SWS post-helium atlas of near-infrared stellar spectra
We present an atlas of near-infrared spectra (2.36 mu m-4.1 mu m) of ~300 stars at moderate resolution (lambda /delta lambda ~ 1500-2000). Thespectra were recorded using the Short-Wavelength Spectrometer aboard theInfrared Space Observatory (ISO-SWS). The bulk of the observations wereperformed during a dedicated observation campaign after the liquidhelium depletion of the ISO satellite, the so-called post-heliumprogramme. This programme was aimed at extending the MK-classificationto the near-infrared. Therefore the programme covers a large range ofspectral types and luminosity classes. The 2.36 mu m-4.05 mu m region isa valuable spectral probe for both hot and cool stars. H I lines(Bracket, Pfund and Humphreys series), He I and He II lines, atomiclines and molecular lines (CO, H2O, NH, OH, SiO, HCN,C2H2, ...) are sensitive to temperature, gravityand/or the nature of the outer layers of the stellar atmosphere(outflows, hot circumstellar discs, etc.). Another objective of theprogramme was to construct a homogeneous dataset of near-infraredstellar spectra that can be used for population synthesis studies ofgalaxies. At near-infrared wavelengths these objects emit the integratedlight of all stars in the system. In this paper we present the datasetof post-helium spectra completed with observations obtained during thenominal operations of the ISO-SWS. We discuss the calibration of the SWSdata obtained after the liquid helium boil-off and the data reduction.We also give a first qualitative overview of how the spectral featuresin this wavelength range change with spectral type. The dataset isscrutinised in two papers on the quantitative classification ofnear-infrared spectra of early-type stars ({Lenorzer} et al.\cite{lenorzer:2002a}) and late-type stars (Vandenbussche et al., inprep). Based on observations with ISO, an ESA project with instrumentsfunded by ESA Members States (especially the PI countries France,Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom) and with theparticipation of ISAS and NASA.

| Photometric and TiO modelling of the starspots on AG Dor and HU Vir
In this work, spot parameters are determined for two stars, namely,AG Dor and HU Vir, from theirphotometric variability and lambda 7055 Å TiO band depth. Applyingthe photometric modelling code SPOTPIC, we have found two modulatingspots together with a non-modulating component on the photosphere of AGDor in December 96/January 97. The spot temperatures are constrained tobe between 4300 K and 4600 K for the modulating component, and cooler,viz., 4000 K, for the non-modulating one. Therefore, the non-modulatingcomponent of the spot distribution on AG Dor at this epoch is held to betotally responsible for the presence of the TiO band in the spectra ofthis K1 dwarf with photospheric temperature of 5000 K. AG Dor's totalcoverage of spots is determined to be between 4% and 7% for themodulating component and 26.5% for the non-modulating one. For HU Vir,the light and colour curves were modelled with two spots withtemperatures of 4450 and 4050 K. In this case we did not include thenon-modulating component in the model.
| Long period variable stars: galactic populations and infrared luminosity calibrations
In this paper HIPPARCOS astrometric and kinematic data are used tocalibrate both infrared luminosities and kinematical parameters of LongPeriod Variable stars (LPVs). Individual absolute K and IRAS 12 and 25luminosities of 800 LPVs are determined and made available in electronicform. The estimated mean kinematics is analyzed in terms of galacticpopulations. LPVs are found to belong to galactic populations rangingfrom the thin disk to the extended disk. An age range and a lower limitof the initial mass is given for stars of each population. A differenceof 1.3 mag in K for the upper limit of the Asymptotic Giant Branch isfound between the disk and old disk galactic populations, confirming itsdependence on the mass in the main sequence. LPVs with a thin envelopeare distinguished using the estimated mean IRAS luminosities. The levelof attraction (in the classification sense) of each group for the usualclassifying parameters of LPVs (variability and spectral types) isexamined.

| Stars with the Largest Hipparcos Photometric Amplitudes
A list of the 2027 stars that have the largest photometric amplitudes inHipparcos Photometry shows that most variable stars are all Miras. Thepercentage of variable types change as a function of amplitude. Thiscompilation should also be of value to photometrists looking forrelatively unstudied, but large amplitude stars.
| Infrared Properties of SiO Maser Sources in Late-Type Stars
The results of an SiO maser survey for late-type stars selected by theIRTS (Infrared Telescope in Space) are presented. We have detected SiOJ=1-0, v=1 and/or v=2 lines in 27 stars out of 59 stars. The maserintensity increases with the depth of the H_2O absorption in theinfrared spectra and redness of the 2.2 and 12 mu m color. The columndensities of the water vapor in the target stars were estimated from thedepth of the water absorption in the IRTS spectra. We found that the SiOmaser was detected mostly in the stars with a column density of watervapor higher than 3*E19-3*E20 cm-2. Wefurther estimated the density of hydrogen molecules in the outeratmosphere corresponding to these column densities, obtaining109-1010 cm-3 as a lower limit. Thesevalues are roughly in agreement with the critical hydrogen densitypredicted by models for the excitation of SiO masers. It is possiblethat the SiO masers are excited in clumps with column density evenhigher than this value. The present results provide useful informationfor the understanding of the physical conditions of the outeratmospheres in late-type stars.
| Water vapor absorption in early M-type stars
The spectrometers onboard the Infrared Telescope in Space (IRTS) revealwater vapor absorption in early M-type stars, as early as M2. Previousobservations detected H_2O vapor absorption only in stars later than M6,with the exception of the recent detection of H_2O in betaPeg (M2.5 II-III). In our sample of 108 stars, 67 stars havespectral types earlier than M6. The spectral types are established bymeans of their near-infrared colors on a statistical basis. Among the 67stars of spectral types earlier than M6, we find water vapor absorptionin six stars. The observed absorption features are interpreted using alocal thermodynamic equilibrium model. The features are reasonablyfitted by model spectra with excitation temperatures of 1000-1500 K andwater column densities of 5*E(19) to 1*E(20) cm(-2) . These numbersimply that the H_2O molecules are present in a region of the atmosphere,located above the photosphere. Furthermore, our analysis shows a goodcorrelation between the H_2O absorption band strength, and themid-infrared excess due to the circumstellar dust. We discuss therelation between the outer atmosphere and the mass loss.
| Classification and Identification of IRAS Sources with Low-Resolution Spectra
IRAS low-resolution spectra were extracted for 11,224 IRAS sources.These spectra were classified into astrophysical classes, based on thepresence of emission and absorption features and on the shape of thecontinuum. Counterparts of these IRAS sources in existing optical andinfrared catalogs are identified, and their optical spectral types arelisted if they are known. The correlations between thephotospheric/optical and circumstellar/infrared classification arediscussed.
| An atlas of southern MK standards from 5800 to 10200 A
An atlas of stellar spectra covering the wavelength range from 5800 to10,200 A is presented of 126 southern MK standard stars, covering theluminosity classes I, III, and V. Some peculiar stars are included forcomparison purposes. The spectra were obtained at a resolution of 4.3 Aper pixel using a Cassegrain-mounted Boller and Chivens spectrographequipped with a Reticon detector. The quality and utility of the dataare discussed and examples of the spectra are presented. The atlas isavailable in digital format through the NSSDC.
| Oxygen-rich semiregular and irregular variables
All the known oxygen-rich semiregulars and irregulars of spectralclasses K and M with the absolute value of B not greater than 30 deg,Delta(m) not less than 0.5 mag, and, for the semiregulars, periods inthe range of 50 to 400 d are compiled. On the basis of theirdistributions on the sky and their brightnesses in the K band at 2.2microns, it is argued that the semiregulars with a period of 300-400 dappear to belong to the same population as the 'thin disk' Miras in thesame period range and have an exponential scale height from the Galacticplane of about 250 pc. The semiregulars with a period range of 200 to300 d belong to the population of the 'thick disk' Miras with anexponential scale height from the Galactic plane of about 500 pc. On thebasis of the similarities of their space distributions and the presenceof Tc in their atmospheres, and using the pulsational mode calculationsby Ostlie and Cox (1986), it is suggested that the semiregulars with aperiod range of 100-150 d are first and second overtone pulsations ofthe same population of AGB stars as the Miras in their fundamentalpulsational mode with periods longer than 300 d.

| SiO masers in giant semi-regular variables and supergiants
A systematic study is presented of the SiO maser emission in nonregular(O-rich) variables: semiregular giants (SRGs) and supergiants (SGs),which was much less well known than for Miras (giant regular variables).It has been found that some SRGs and SGs attain the high level of maseremission characteristic of Miras, but others remain significantlyweaker. This has been found to hold for v = 1, 2 J = 1-0 and v = 1 J =2-1 masers. The well defined value of the SiO (peak flux)/IR(8-micronflux) ratio (about 1/5), attained by the Miras and by the strongest SRGsand SGs, is interpreted as representing the maximum efficiency of theradiative pumping. The low SiO/IR ratio of many SRGs and SGs is shown tobe related to their low variation amplitude. This result is interpretedas being due to the fact that strong stellar pulses lead to thedevelopment of the inner envelope layers, where, from radiative pumpingmodels and VLBI observations, the SiO maser emission arises.
| The Perkins catalog of revised MK types for the cooler stars
A catalog is presented listing the spectral types of the G, K, M, and Sstars that have been classified at the Perkins Observatory in therevised MK system. Extensive comparisons have been made to ensureconsistency between the MK spectral types of stars in the Northern andSouthern Hemispheres. Different classification spectrograms have beengradually improved in spite of some inherent limitations. In thecatalog, the full subclasses used are the following: G0, G5, G8, K0, K1,K2, K3, K4, K5, M0, M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6, M7, and M8. Theirregularities are the price paid for keeping the general scheme of theoriginal Henry Draper classification.
| Detection of new southern SiO maser sources associated with Mira and symbiotic stars
In July 1987 the Parkes radio telescope was used to search for 43.12 GHzSiO maser emission from southern late-type stars. The discovery of suchemission from 12 Mira-like systems, including the symbiotic star H1-36is reported, and the implications of the data for the symbiotic starsare discussed. Several M-type Mira variables with unusually lowSiO/infrared flux ratios are identified. In addition, profiles arepresented for the only other known symbiotic maser, R Aqr, atunprecedented signal-to-noise ratio; these profiles show linearlypolarized emission from several components of the source. In conjunctionwith previous work, constraints are placed on the orbital dynamics ofthe masing component in RAqr.
| The visible spectra of Southern Hemisphere Mira variable stars
The 483 blue classification spectrograms of 72 Southern Hemisphere Miravariables presently added to the Keenan et al. (1974) catalog indicatethat the irregular behavior of absorption features in Mira variables canbe accounted for by a second shock front that lies higher in theatmosphere than the one producing Balmer emission. Since shock velocityprobably varies from cycle to cycle, the affected lines are not expectedto maintain the same equivalent width at the same phase in differentcycles.
| The infrared universe revealed by IRAS
Some of the astrophysical phenomena revealed by IRAS are reviewed. Therelation of IRAS data to understanding the origin of the interplanetarydust cloud, to the discovery of protoplanetary disks around other stars,to understanding the birth and death of stars, and to comprehending theenergetics of the interstellar medium are addressed. Extragalacticresults suggesting that IRAS may have found the birthplace of quasarsare examined, and the surprising cosmological implications of the IRAScatalog are considered.
