Searching for links between magnetic fields and stellar evolution. I. A survey of magnetic fields in open cluster A- and B-type stars with FORS1
Context: .About 5% of upper main sequence stars are permeated by astrong magnetic field, the origin of which is still matter of debate. Aims: . With this work we provide observational material to studyhow magnetic fields change with the evolution of stars on the mainsequence, and to constrain theory explaining the presence of magneticfields in A and B-type stars. Methods: . Using FORS1 inspectropolarimetric mode at the ESO VLT, we have carried out a survey ofmagnetic fields in early-type stars belonging to open clusters andassociations of various ages. Results: . We have measured themagnetic field of 235 early-type stars with a typical uncertainty of˜ 100 G. In our sample, 97 stars are Ap or Bp stars. For thesetargets, the median error bar of our field measurements was ˜ 80 G.A field has been detected in about 41 of these stars, 37 of which werenot previously known as magnetic stars. For the 138 normal A and B-typestars, the median error bar was 136 G, and no field was detected in anyof them.

A method of open cluster membership determination
A new method for the determination of open cluster membership based on acumulative effect is proposed. In the field of a plate the relative xand y coordinate positions of each star with respect to all the otherstars are added. The procedure is carried out for two epochst1 and t2 separately, then one sum is subtractedfrom another. For a field star the differences in its relativecoordinate positions of two epochs will be accumulated. For a clusterstar, on the contrary, the changes in relative positions of clustermembers at t1 and t2 will be very small. On thehistogram of sums the cluster stars will gather to the left of thediagram, while the field stars will form a tail to the right. Theprocedure allows us to efficiently discriminate one group from another.The greater the distance between t1 and t2 and themore cluster stars present, the greater is the effect. The accumulationmethod does not require reference stars, determination of centroids andmodelling the distribution of field stars, necessary in traditionalmethods. By the proposed method 240 open clusters have been processed,including stars up to m<13. The membership probabilities have beencalculated and compared to those obtained by the most commonly usedVasilevskis-Sanders method. The similarity of the results acquired thetwo different approaches is satisfactory for the majority of clusters.

A catalogue of eclipsing variables
A new catalogue of 6330 eclipsing variable stars is presented. Thecatalogue was developed from the General Catalogue of Variable Stars(GCVS) and its textual remarks by including recently publishedinformation about classification of 843 systems and making correspondingcorrections of GCVS data. The catalogue1 represents thelargest list of eclipsing binaries classified from observations.

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.

Absolute proper motions of open clusters. I. Observational data
Mean proper motions and parallaxes of 205 open clusters were determinedfrom their member stars found in the Hipparcos Catalogue. 360 clusterswere searched for possible members, excluding nearby clusters withdistances D < 200 pc. Members were selected using ground basedinformation (photometry, radial velocity, proper motion, distance fromthe cluster centre) and information provided by Hipparcos (propermotion, parallax). Altogether 630 certain and 100 possible members werefound. A comparison of the Hipparcos parallaxes with photometricdistances of open clusters shows good agreement. The Hipparcos dataconfirm or reject the membership of several Cepheids in the studiedclusters. Tables 1 and 2 are only available in electronic form at theCDS via anonymous ftp to cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr (130.79.128.5) or viahttp://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/Abstract.html

The 74th Special Name-list of Variable Stars
We present the Name-list introducing GCVS names for 3153 variable starsdiscovered by the Hipparcos mission.

RGU photometry of a field in the Carina region near the cluster IC 2581
A field of 0.21 sq deg containing 2099 stars in the Carina region nearthe cluster IC 2581, has been measured on 14 plates in the RGU system.The reddening is caused by a thin absorbing cloud at 770 pc with E(G-R)= 0.23 mag, as well as an interstellar absorption free zone followed bya moderate gradient which increases with distance. The density gradientscorresponding to late-type giants and main sequence stars of the sameabsolute magnitude do not display the same behavior. Assuming that theouter edge of the arm of Carina is being observed, the present resultsseem to corroborate the existence of external spiral features between 12and 13 kpc. The distribution of F0-F5 stars seems to confirm predictionsof the theory of density waves.
