X-rays from the open cluster NGC 6633
NGC 6633 is a young, open cluster with a similar age to the Hyades andPraesepe, but probably a lower metallicity. We present the results ofROSAT High Resolution Imager observations of an optically selectedcatalogue of likely members of NGC 6633. 8 out of 51 NGC 6633 membershave been detected, with main-sequence spectral types A to G, above athreshold X-ray luminosity of~6-12×1028ergs-1. We find that NGC 6633 doesnot contain cool stars that are as X-ray luminous as the most activeobjects in the Hyades and that the median X-ray luminosity of F-G starsin NGC 6633 is less than that in the Hyades, but probably greater thanin Praesepe. However, when X-ray activity is expressed as the X-ray tobolometric flux ratio we find that NGC 6633 and the Hyades are verysimilar and display similar peak levels of coronal activity. Weattribute this discrepancy to a number of possible wide binary systemswith higher X-ray (and bolometric) luminosities in the Hyades sample andeither a low metallicity in NGC 6633, which makes its cool stars bothX-ray and bolometrically less luminous at the same colour, or a distanceto NGC 6633 that has been underestimated, which would decrease stellarX-ray luminosities without changing X-ray to bolometric flux ratios.

Catalogue of Apparent Diameters and Absolute Radii of Stars (CADARS) - Third edition - Comments and statistics
The Catalogue, available at the Centre de Données Stellaires deStrasbourg, consists of 13 573 records concerning the results obtainedfrom different methods for 7778 stars, reported in the literature. Thefollowing data are listed for each star: identifications, apparentmagnitude, spectral type, apparent diameter in arcsec, absolute radiusin solar units, method of determination, reference, remarks. Commentsand statistics obtained from CADARS are given. The Catalogue isavailable 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/qcar?J/A+A/367/521

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

Composite M V versus (V-I) 0 Diagram for Template Open Clusters
New CCD VI photometric data for 10 template open clusters withaccurately determined fundamental parameters are presented. From theobserved V versus V - I diagrams of the clusters, fiducial sequenceshave been defined and transformed into the Mv versus (V - I)0 diagram byaveraging sequences of template open clusters with similar ages. Theresulting composite Mv versus (V - I)0 diagram presents a homogeneousset of empirical isochrones in the age range between 5 Myr and 4 Gyr.These empirical isochrones show an overall very good agreement withthose computed from stellar evolutionary models. Theoretical isochroneswith moderate overshooting fit the observed main sequences better thanthe canonical ones for clusters older than 600 Myr. The present set ofempirical isochrones will be useful for the study of faint reddened openclusters

Spectral types in the open cluster NGC 6633
Spectral types are given for the 26 brightest stars in the region of NGC6633. Only two of the giants are definitely cluster members. Twoapparent blue stragglers are present, as well as one extreme Ap star,four marginal Am stars, and two stars with weak shell lines.
