Description
Selecting stars with previously measured or estimated rotational periods we have measured equivalent widths of the Li doublet (6708 A) in 8 stars of the Hyades late main sequence and, combining our data with literature values, derive a homogeneous set of Li abundances. The graph of Li against period is monotonic, taking, not surprisingly, a similar form to that of Li against effective temperature. A plot of log N (Li) v, Rossby number allows us to examine separately the dependence of the Li abundance on temperature and rotation and indirectly on magnetic fields. For stars later than F8 the data suggest a slight trend to increased depletion with longer period, at constant B-V.

    Euclid preparation. XXXVI. Modelling the weak lensing angular power spectrum

    This work considers which higher order modeling effects on the cosmic shear angular power spectra must be taken into account for Euclid. We identified the relevant terms and quantified their individual and cumulative impact on the cosmological parameter inferences from Euclid. We computed the values of these higher order effects using analytic

    Euclid preparation. XXXVII. Galaxy colour selections with Euclid and ground photometry for cluster weak-lensing analyses

    Aims: We derived galaxy colour selections from Euclid and ground-based photometry, aiming to accurately define background galaxy samples in cluster weak-lensing analyses. These selections have been implemented in the Euclid data analysis pipelines for galaxy clusters. Methods: Given any set of photometric bands, we developed a method for the
