Rotational velocities of A-type stars in the northern hemisphere. II. Measurement of v sin i
This work is the second part of the set of measurements of v sin i forA-type stars, begun by Royer et al. (\cite{Ror_02a}). Spectra of 249 B8to F2-type stars brighter than V=7 have been collected at Observatoirede Haute-Provence (OHP). Fourier transforms of several line profiles inthe range 4200-4600 Å are used to derive v sin i from thefrequency of the first zero. Statistical analysis of the sampleindicates that measurement error mainly depends on v sin i and thisrelative error of the rotational velocity is found to be about 5% onaverage. The systematic shift with respect to standard values fromSlettebak et al. (\cite{Slk_75}), previously found in the first paper,is here confirmed. Comparisons with data from the literature agree withour findings: v sin i values from Slettebak et al. are underestimatedand the relation between both scales follows a linear law ensuremath vsin inew = 1.03 v sin iold+7.7. Finally, thesedata are combined with those from the previous paper (Royer et al.\cite{Ror_02a}), together with the catalogue of Abt & Morrell(\cite{AbtMol95}). The resulting sample includes some 2150 stars withhomogenized rotational velocities. Based on observations made atObservatoire de Haute Provence (CNRS), France.

| Comparative morphology of ALIVARS and RCB type stars
Some conclusions were drawn from the analysis of the following specificfeatures of the rapid Algol-Like Irregular VARiable Stars (ALIVARS): 1)general mode of variability for ALIVARS and R CrB, 2) long periods ofnearly constant brightness, 3) specific "color - V-magnitude"dependence,4) Anticorrelation between V brightness and degree ofpolarization, 5) identity of the optical properties of the RCB andALIVARS circumstellar dust, 6) cyclic light variations at normalbrighness, 7) connection between cyclic light variations and the onsetof drastic light fadings. We found that ALIVARS have some morphologicalfeatures more in common with evolved RCB-type stars rather than withyoung Herbig Ae/Be stars. Moreover, the results of the analysis of theALIVARS evolution characteristic - a) space distribution of individualALIVARS and star formation regions, b) loci on the H-R diagram, c)equivalent widths of hydrogen absorption lines, d) relative hydrogendeficiency of two ALIVARS investigated (70% of the solar abundance for V351 Ori and 30% for RZ Psc), e) mean group parameter Vsini of ALIVARS,f) luminosity of ALIVARS �alpha emission envelopes- unambiguously point that ALIVARS are not so young as Herbig Ae/Bestars and they have left the main sequence. Thus, we have encounteredthe fact of stellar mimicry: ALIVARS tend to look out as young stars,having at that time features of rather evolved stars. Relying on suchfindings, we conclude the same ALIVARS should not be further regarded asyoung stars of the HAEBES group.
| A spectroscopic survey for lambda Bootis stars. II. The observational data
lambda Bootis stars comprise only a small number of all A-type stars andare characterized as nonmagnetic, Population i, late B to early F-typedwarfs which show significant underabundances of metals whereas thelight elements (C, N, O and S) are almost normal abundant compared tothe Sun. In the second paper on a spectroscopic survey for lambda Bootisstars, we present the spectral classifications of all program starsobserved. These stars were selected on the basis of their Strömgrenuvbybeta colors as lambda Bootis candidates. In total, 708 objects insix open clusters, the Orion OB1 association and the Galactic field wereclassified. In addition, 9 serendipity non-candidates in the vicinity ofour program stars as well as 15 Guide Star Catalogue stars were observedresulting in a total of 732 classified stars. The 15 objects from theGuide Star Catalogue are part of a program for the classification ofapparent variable stars from the Fine Guidance Sensors of the HubbleSpace Telescope. A grid of 105 MK standard as well as ``pathological''stars guarantees a precise classification. A comparison of our spectralclassification with the extensive work of Abt & Morrell(\cite{Abt95}) shows no significant differences. The derived types are0.23 +/- 0.09 (rms error per measurement) subclasses later and 0.30 +/-0.08 luminosity classes more luminous than those of Abt & Morrell(\cite{Abt95}) based on a sample of 160 objects in common. The estimatederrors of the means are +/- 0.1 subclasses. The characteristics of oursample are discussed in respect to the distribution on the sky, apparentvisual magnitudes and Strömgren uvbybeta colors. Based onobservations from the Observatoire de Haute-Provence, OsservatorioAstronomico di Padova-Asiago, Observatório do Pico dosDias-LNA/CNPq/MCT, Chews Ridge Observatory (MIRA) and University ofToronto Southern Observatory (Las Campanas).
| Determination of lg G of several variable Herbig Ae/Be stars.
Echelle spectrogrammes of 19 variable Herbig Ae/Be stars were obtainedin 1988-1992 in the wavelength interval 4000-7000Å with thespectral complex ``Zebra" at the 6-m telescope of Special AstrophysicalObservatory, Russian Academy of Sciences (SAO RAS). Kurucz's models wereemployed for the analysis of the hydrogen absorption line profiles. Forall programme and standard stars lg(g) gravity parameters were obtained.The location of the stars on the "lg(g)-T_eff_" diagram does not agreewith the hypothesis that the studied objects are pre-main sequencestars.

| 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.

Traditional UBV filters, together with a photomultiplier, have been usedin 40-m Cassegrain telescope observations of all northern stars of theFK4 catalog and its supplement, which have heretofore lacked V and V-Bmeasurements. The resulting UBV photometry for 320 stars is presented intabular form.
