The status of Galactic field lambda Bootis stars in the post-Hipparcos era

Ernst Paunzen, Ilian Kh. Iliev, Inga Kamp +1

The lambda Bootis stars are Population I, late B to early F-type stars, with moderate to extreme (up to a factor 100) surface underabundances of most Fe-peak elements and solar abu…

On the Origin of the Circular and Hexagonal Formations in Galaxies

Yuri N. Efremov

The round and arc-shaped formations are known in some galaxies, the Bubble complex (the Hodge object) in NGC 6946 being the most remarkable. The rim of the complex has a form of a…

M75, a Globular Cluster with a Trimodal Horizontal Branch. I. Color-Magnitude Diagram

M. Catelan, J. Borissova, F. R. Ferraro +3

Deep UBVI photometry for a large field covering the distant globular cluster M75 (NGC 6864) is presented. We confirm a previous suggestion (Catelan et al. 1998a) that M75 possesses…
