Low- and Medium-Dispersion Spectropolarimetry of Nova V475 Scuti (Nova Scuti 2003): Discovery of an Asymmetric High-Velocity Wind in a Moderately Fast Nova
We present low-resolution (R~90) and medium-resolution (R~2500)spectropolarimetry of nova V475 Sct taken with the HBS instrument,mounted on the 0.91 m telescope at the Okayama AstrophysicalObservatory, and taken with the Faint Object Camera and Spectrograph,mounted on the 8.2 m Subaru telescope. We estimated the interstellarpolarization toward the nova from the steady continuum polarizationcomponents and Hα line emission components. After subtracting theinterstellar polarization component from the observations, we found thatthe Hα emission seen on 2003 October 7 was clearly polarized. Inthe polarized flux spectrum the Hα emission had a distinct redwing extending to ~+4900 km s-1 and a shoulder around +3500km s-1, showing a constant position angle (P.A.) of linearpolarization θ*~=155deg+/-15deg.This suggests that the nova had an asymmetric outflow with a velocity ofvwind~=3500 km s-1 or more, which is 6 timeshigher than the expansion velocity of the ionized shell at the sameepoch. Such a high-velocity component has not previously been reportedfor a nova in the ``moderately fast'' speed class. Our observationssuggest the occurrence of violent mass-loss activity in the nova binarysystem even during the common-envelope phase. The P.A. of thepolarization in the Hα wing is in good agreement with that of thecontinuum polarization found on 2003 September 26(p*~=0.4%-0.6%), which disappeared within the following 2days. The uniformity of the P.A. between the continuum polarization andthe wing polarization on October 7 suggests that the axis of thecircumstellar asymmetry remained nearly constant during the period ofour observations.Based on data obtained at the Subaru telescope and the OkayamaAstrophysical Observatory, which are operated by the NationalAstronomical Observatory of Japan.

Five-colour photometry of OB-stars in the Southern Hemisphere
Observations of OB-stars, made in 1959 and 1960 at the Leiden SouthernStation near Hartebeespoortdam, South Africa, with the VBLUW photometerattached to the 90 cm light-collector, are given in this paper. They arecompared with photometry obtained by \cite[Graham (1968),]{gra68}\cite[Walraven & Walraven (1977),]{wal77} \cite[Lub & Pel(1977)]{lub77} and \cite[Van Genderen et al. (1984).]{gen84} Formulaefor the transformation of the present observations to those of\cite[Walraven & Walraven (1977)]{wal77} and \cite[Lub & Pel(1977)]{lub77} are given.

UBV beta Database for Case-Hamburg Northern and Southern Luminous Stars
A database of photoelectric UBV beta photometry for stars listed in theCase-Hamburg northern and southern Milky Way luminous stars surveys hasbeen compiled from the original research literature. Consisting of over16,000 observations of some 7300 stars from over 500 sources, thisdatabase constitutes the most complete compilation of such photometryavailable for intrinsically luminous stars around the Galactic plane.Over 5000 stars listed in the Case-Hamburg surveys still lackfundamental photometric data.

Vitesses radiales. Catalogue WEB: Wilson Evans Batten. Subtittle: Radial velocities: The Wilson-Evans-Batten catalogue.
We give a common version of the two catalogues of Mean Radial Velocitiesby Wilson (1963) and Evans (1978) to which we have added the catalogueof spectroscopic binary systems (Batten et al. 1989). For each star,when possible, we give: 1) an acronym to enter SIMBAD (Set ofIdentifications Measurements and Bibliography for Astronomical Data) ofthe CDS (Centre de Donnees Astronomiques de Strasbourg). 2) the numberHIC of the HIPPARCOS catalogue (Turon 1992). 3) the CCDM number(Catalogue des Composantes des etoiles Doubles et Multiples) byDommanget & Nys (1994). For the cluster stars, a precise study hasbeen done, on the identificator numbers. Numerous remarks point out theproblems we have had to deal with.

Walraven photometry of nearby southern OB associations

The interstellar 217 NM band - A third catalogue of equivalent widths
A catalog of equivalent widths of the 217 nm interstellar absorptionband as well as other parameters characterizing the extinction curve inthe ultraviolet has been compiled for 790 O and B stars. A relativelytight correlation between the equivalent width of the 217 nm band andE(B-V) indicates that the absorber of this band is connected with thepopulation of larger interstellar grains responsible for the visualextinction. The parameter characterizing the amount of extinction in thefar UV is only weakly correlated with E(B-V), a result in accord withthe assumption that a second population of very small grains causes therapid increase of the far-UV extinction.

A catalog of ultraviolet interstellar extinction excesses for 1415 stars
Ultraviolet interstellar extinction excesses are presented for 1415stars with spectral types B7 and earlier. The excesses with respect to Vare derived from Astronomical Netherlands Satellite (ANS) 5-channel UVphotometry at central wavelengths of approximately 1550, 1800, 2500, and3300 A. A measure of the excess extinction in the 2200-A extinction bumpis also given. The data are valuable for investigating the systematicsof peculiar interstellar extinction and for studying the character of UVinterstellar extinction in the general direction of stars for which theextinction-curve shape is unknown.

New UBVRI photometry for 900 supergiants
A description is presented of the results obtained in connection with asystematic program of supergiant photometry on the Johnson UBVRI system.During the eight years after the start of the program, almost 1000 starshave been observed, about 400 three or more times each. The originalselection of stars used the spectral type catalog of Jaschek et al.(1964) to choose supergiants. Since observations were possible from bothChile and Canada, no declination limits were imposed, and no particularselection criteria were imposed other than to eliminate carbon stars.These are so red as to require enormous extrapolations of thetransformation equations.
