“…In the last decade substantial effort has been made to scan the sky for standard stars to be used for photometric calibration: Landolt (1992) covering the celestial equator, Henden & Honeycutt (1997) and Bryja & Sandtorf (1999) covering fields around cataclysmic variables, and Henden & Munari (2000 covering fields around symbiotic binaries, to name just a few. These efforts help overcome the problem of small CCD fields with respect to all-sky photometry, since in many fields there are now cataloged standard stars that may be used to extract color indices for EBs.…”

PHOEBE (PHysics Of Eclipsing BinariEs) is a modeling package for eclipsing binary stars, built on top of the widely used WD program of Wilson & Devinney. This introductory paper gives an overview of the most important scientific extensions (incorporating observational spectra of eclipsing binaries into the solution-seeking process, extracting individual temperatures from observed color indices, main-sequence constraining, and proper treatment of the reddening), numerical innovations (suggested improvements to WD's differential corrections method, the new Nelder & Mead downhill simplex method), and technical aspects (back-end scripter structure, graphical user interface). While PHOEBE retains 100% WD compatibility, its add-ons are a powerful way to enhance WD by encompassing even more physics and solution reliability. The operability of all these extensions is demonstrated on a synthetic main-sequence test binary; applications to real data will be published in follow-up papers. PHOEBE is released under the GNU General Public License, which guarantees it to be free and open to anyone interested in joining in on future development.

“…Hender & Munari (2000, 2001 give astrometrically measured accurate positions for 40 of our program stars (linked to the USNO-A2.0 reference system). For the remaining targets the positions as given in the appropriate astrometric catalogues (following identifications in Table 3) have been adopted.…”

Abstract.A multi-epoch, absolute-fluxed spectral atlas extending from about 3200 to 9000Å is presented for 130 symbiotic stars, including members of the LMC, SMC and Draco dwarf galaxies. The fluxes are accurate to better than 5% as shown by comparison with Tycho and ground-based photometric data. The spectra of 40 reference objects (MKK cool giant standards, Mira and Carbon stars, planetary nebulae, white dwarfs, hot sub-dwarfs, Wolf-Rayet stars, classical novae, VV Cep and Herbig Ae/Be objects) are provided to assist the interpretation of symbiotic star spectra. Astrometric positions and counterparts in astrometric catalogues are derived for all program symbiotic stars. The spectra are available in electronic form from the authors.

“…The basic types of variability for symbiotic stars and their causes were reviewed, and UBV(RI) C sequences for a first sample of 20 objects were provided. Paper II (Henden & Munari 2001) presented similar UBV(RI) C photometric sequences for an additional 20 symbiotic stars. This paper presents accurate UBV(RI) C photometric comparison sequences for the final set of 41 symbiotic stars that complete our program.…”

We present accurate UBV(RI) C photometric sequences and astrometric positions for a final set of 41 symbiotic stars. In a similar manner to the 40 targets of Papers I and II, these sequences extend over wide brightness and color ranges and are suited to covering both quiescence and outburst phases. They are intended to assist both the CCD photometric monitoring of current variability and exploitation of old photographic plates from historical archives.
