A new empirical calibration of the (B-V) index versus the three fundamental stellar parameters T(eff), (Fe/H), and log g is presented whose range of validity is adequate to analyze the main sequence and turnoff regions of most of the stellar cluster systems. Significant systematic differences are found between this new calibration and previous ones

High resolution, high S/N spectra obtained using RETICON and CCD detectors are used to determine the abundances of Al, Si, Ca, Ni and Fe in 23 disc stars in the metallicity range -1.2 ⪉ [Fe/H] ⪉ +0.3. The authors have found overabundances, with respect to iron for Al (≡0.4), Si (≡0.3), and Ca (≡0.2) in stars between -1.2 ⪉ [Fe/H] ⪉ -0.5. The

EL PRESENTE TRABAJO SE HAYA DIVIDIDO EN DOS PARTES CLARAMENTE DIFERENCIALES AUNQUE ESTRECHAMENTE RELACIONADAS. EN LA PRIMERA SE DESARROLLA UN CONJUNTO DE PARAMETROS CAPACES DE CARACTERIZAR ESTRUCTURAS PRESENTES EN LOS PERFILES FOTOMETRICOS ACIMUTALES DE GALAXIAS, APLICANDOLOS A LA ESTRUCTURA ESPIRAL DE LAS GALAXIAS NGC 1832 Y NGC 7479 EN LAS BANDAS

The authors have determined the masses and orbital parameters for the galaxies in the strongly interacting binary NGC 4782/4783 by finding a numerical simulation of the collision that accurately represents all of the observed properties of the system. With this simulation, the authors have completely determined the three-dimensional orientation and
