Distances and Metallicities of High- and Intermediate-Velocity Clouds
A table is presented that summarizes published absorption linemeasurements for the high- and intermediate-velocity clouds (HVCs andIVCs). New values are derived for N(H I) in the direction of observedprobes, in order to arrive at reliable abundances and abundance limits(the H I data are described in Paper II). Distances to stellar probesare revisited and calculated consistently, in order to derive distancebrackets or limits for many of the clouds, taking care to properlyinterpret nondetections. The main conclusions are the following. (1)Absolute abundances have been measured using lines of S II, N I, and OI, with the following resulting values: ~0.1 solar for one HVC (complexC), ~0.3 solar for the Magellanic Stream, ~0.5 solar for a southern IVC,and ~solar for two northern IVCs (the IV Arch and LLIV Arch). Finally,approximate values in the range 0.5-2 solar are found for three moreIVCs. (2) Depletion patterns in IVCs are like those in warm disk or halogas. (3) Most distance limits are based on strong UV lines of C II, SiII, and Mg II, a few on Ca II. Distance limits for major HVCs aregreater than 5 kpc, while distance brackets for several IVCs are in therange 0.5-2 kpc. (4) Mass limits for major IVCs are0.5-8×105 Msolar, but for major HVCs theyare more than 106 Msolar. (5) The Ca II/H I ratiovaries by up to a factor 2-5 within a single cloud, somewhat morebetween clouds. (6) The Na I/H I ratio varies by a factor of more than10 within a cloud, and even more between clouds. Thus, Ca II can beuseful for determining both lower and upper distance limits, but Na Ionly yields upper limits.

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.

The Structure of the Galactic Magnetic Field toward the High-Latitude Clouds
We present the results of an optical polarization survey toward thegalactic anticenter, in the area 5h >= alpha >= 2h and 6 deg <=delta <= 12 deg. This region is characterized by the presence of astream of high-velocity H I as well as high galactic latitude molecularclouds. We used our polarization data together with 100 mu m IRAS mapsof the region to study the relation between the dust distribution andthe geometry of the magnetic field. We find that there is a correlationbetween the percent polarization and the 100 mu m flux such that P(%)<= (0.16 +/- 0.05)F100. When the IRAS flux is converted into H Icolumn densities this becomes P(%) <= (0.13 +/- 0.03)N20 - 0.22,which is consistent with previous interstellar medium studies on therelation between reddening and polarization. This correlation indicatesthat our survey is as deep as IRAS and that the magnetic field geometrydoes not change strongly with the optical depth in the lines of sightthat we have studied. The implied lower limit to the distance of oursurvey is 500--700 pc at galactic latitudes b = -20 deg and 100 pc at b= -50 deg. Our main finding is that the magnetic field is perpendicularto the H I high-velocity stream as well as the molecular cloud MBM 16 inthe high-latitude region. The field is also perpendicular to thevelocity gradient in the stream. Closer to the plane, the magnetic fieldis parallel to the dust filaments that extend like a plume toward thehalo. Our observations indicate that the galactic magnetic field towardthe high-latitude clouds is toroidal. We propose a model in which fluxtubes that rise out of the galactic plane become force-free andpredominantly toroidal at high latitudes. The high-latitude clouds maybe gas streams that are falling back toward the galactic plane withinsuch buoyant braided ropes of magnetic flux.

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.

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.

Catalog of O-B stars observed with Tokyo Meridian Circle
A catalog of the O-B stars, selected from 'Blaauw-Parenago' list andRubin's catalog, has been compiled on the FK4 system by the observationsmade with Gautier 8-inch Meridian Circle at the Tokyo AstronomicalObservatory during the period, 1971 to 1979. It contains 1059 stars andwas compiled for the future establishment of high precision propermotions of O-B stars.

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.

The origin of optical polarization in NGC 1068
The polarization of emission lines in the nucleus of NGC 1068 has beenmeasured with a digicon, a single-channel scanner, and interferencefilters. It is found that the permitted lines of H and probably also HeII are polarized at nearly the same position angle and by the sameamount as the neighboring continuum. This argues strongly that a commondust scattering mechanism is responsible for all the polarization. Theforbidden lines are weakly polarized at a position angle quite differentfrom the continuum, indicating an origin outside the nuclear scatteringregion. The continuum radiation has been found to be circularlypolarized with ellipticity of the order of 5 percent in the red. Suchhigh ellipticity is very unlikely to be of nonthermal origin. We take itas evidence that the nuclear dust is in the form of clouds in anasymmetric skew geometry; the polarization then arises from multiplescattering within these clouds.
