Long-term photometry of Variables II

Full description can be found in ESO reports SP 8 and 12. The data presented here have been upgraded since the printing of catalogue ESO SR 12; a major change is the use of a quite different standard, namely the ESO SAT (Stroemgren Automatic Telescope) instrumental system has been used as standard.

The instrumental systems 6 and 8 can be obtained by applying the following color matrices (see ESO SR 12, page 4, Eq. (3)), inverted (b-y , y , m1 , c1): SYSTEM 6 1.0518 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0094 1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 -0.1238 0.0000 1.1206 0.0000 0.0426 0.0000 0.0000 1.0352 SYSTEM 8 1.0476 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0384 1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 -0.0877 0.0000 1.0487 0.0000 -0.2657 0.0000 0.0000 0.9732 It also very easy to go back to the same standard as in ESO SR 8 by applying the transformations given in Table 3 of ESO SR 12 (page 3).
