Photometric data in the UBVRI bands of Herbig Ae/Be stars have been analyzed to study the wavelength dependence of extinction to these objects. The color excess ratios E(U-B)/E(B-V), E(V-R)/E(B-V), E(V-I)/E(B-V) and ...

The effect of rotation on the observed colors of stars has been considered as a possible cause for the blue straggler phenomenon in clusters listed by Mermilliod (1982). It appears that this phenomenon is definitely not ...

An analysis is made of the high- and low-resolution UV spectra of the hydrogen-poor star HD 30353. The stellar wind profiles of the resonance lines of N V, C V, and Si IV are found to be similar to those observed in Upsilon ...
