Scientific paper

The first results of a photometric study of the Orion flare stars is presented using material from the Boyden Observatory. A 60-inch photoelectric sequence, in U, B, V and R, and a photographic reduction technique developed for AHD Baker-Schmidt plates by C.J. Butler, are utilized to construct colour-magnitude and colour-colour diagrams for flare stars to V=16m. The scatter of the flare stars about the main sequence, pointed out by Haro, is confirmed in the B-V/V diagram. However, a fairly well-defined band in the V-R/V diagram is evident, extending from V-R=1.0m, V=12.5m to V-R=1.7m, V=16m. The classical flare stars appear to fall within the same region of the B-V/V-R diagram but to the red of the majority of Orion flare stars.
