Effective temperature scale and bolometric corrections from 2MASS photometry
We present a method to determine effective temperatures, angularsemi-diameters and bolometric corrections for population I and II FGKtype stars based on V and 2MASS IR photometry. Accurate calibration isaccomplished by using a sample of solar analogues, whose averagetemperature is assumed to be equal to the solar effective temperature of5777 K. By taking into account all possible sources of error we estimateassociated uncertainties to better than 1% in effective temperature andin the range 1.0-2.5% in angular semi-diameter for unreddened stars.Comparison of our new temperatures with other determinations extractedfrom the literature indicates, in general, remarkably good agreement.These results suggest that the effective temperaure scale of FGK starsis currently established with an accuracy better than 0.5%-1%. Theapplication of the method to a sample of 10 999 dwarfs in the Hipparcoscatalogue allows us to define temperature and bolometric correction (Kband) calibrations as a function of (V-K), [m/H] and log g. Bolometriccorrections in the V and K bands as a function of T_eff, [m/H] and log gare also given. We provide effective temperatures, angularsemi-diameters, radii and bolometric corrections in the V and K bandsfor the 10 999 FGK stars in our sample with the correspondinguncertainties.

| Optical positions of 221 radio stars obtained with the Bordeaux automatic meridian circle
From 1984 to 1990 the Bordeaux automatic meridian circle was used todetermine accurate J2000 positions of 221 radio stars. The observationswere strictly differential, a convenient number of FK5 stars being usedeach night to calculate the instrumental parameters. The mean positionswere corrected for chromatic refraction and also for photocenter effectin the case of duplicity. The asymptotic accuracy is expected to beabout 0.05 arcsec for the Northern stars with a number of observationsgreater than 25. Mean position of 3C273B is also given from 35measurements obtained in the same conditions.
