cds-question@unistra.fropen-star-clusterseffective-temperaturevisible-astronomykron-cousins-photometryUsing Hyades photometry published by Mendoza (1967BOTT....4..149M) and other authors, Pinsonneault et al. (2004ApJ...600..946P) have recently concluded that Cousins V-I photometry published by Taylor & Joner (1985AJ.....90..479T, 1988AJ.....96..211T, 1996AJ....111.1338T) is not on the Cousins system. Extensive tests of the Taylor-Joner photometry and other pertinent results are therefore performed in this paper. It is found that in part, the Pinsonneault et al. conclusion rests on (1) a systematic error in Mendoza's (R-I)J photometry and (2) a small error in an approximate Johnson-to-Cousins transformation published by Bessell. For the Taylor-Joner values of (V-R)C, it is found that there are possible (though not definite) differences of several mmag with other results. However, the Taylor-Joner values of (R-I)C data are supported at the 1mmag level. Using the (R-I)C data and other published results, an (R-I)C catalog is assembled for 146 Hyades stars with spectral types earlier than about K5. For single stars with multiple contributing data, the rms errors of the catalog entries are less than 4.4 mmag. Temperatures on the Di Benedetto angular-diameter scale are also given in the catalog and are used to help update published analyses of high-dispersion values of [Fe/H] for the Hyades. The best current mean Hyades value of [Fe/H] is found to be +0.103+/-0.008dex and is essentially unchanged from its previous value. In addition to these numerical results, recommendations are made about improving attitudes and practices that are pertinent to issues like those raised by Pinsonneault et al.2005ApJS..159..100Thttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJS/159/100CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toJ/A+A/339/858 : Calibration of stellar parameters (Di Benedetto 1998)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJS/159/100https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJS/159/100http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJS/159/100https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJS/159/100https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJS/159/100http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJS/159/100GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/ApJS/159/100/table6 (Kind 1 catalog of R-I and theta)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/159/100/table6?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/159/100/table6?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/159/100/table6?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true49.3599497.6558070.005555555555555556Cone search capability for table J/ApJS/159/100/table7 (Kind 2 catalog of R-I and theta)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/159/100/table7?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/159/100/table7?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/159/100/table7?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true72.17551821.1009870.005555555555555556Cone search capability for table J/ApJS/159/100/table8 (Kind 3 catalog of theta values)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/159/100/table8?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/159/100/table8?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/159/100/table8?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true54.39572521.3431740.0055555555555555565/84 5883 5884 5886 6/75 309 320 322 323 325 333 334 340 341 342 348 349 350 373 375 456 483 770 917 1024 1032 1033 1035 1042 1043 1058 1060 1075 23023 23332 23339 23344 23392 23396 23405 23410 23423 23454 23463 23479 23489 23490 23493 23497 23501 23502 23503 23504 23511 23513 23514 23515 23518 23523 23525 23526 23527 23529 23542 23548 23550 24099 24104 24110 24192 24194 24195 24201 24202 24203 24206 24207 24218 24223 24242 24248https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/ApJS/159/100?format=asciiOpticaldefaultJ/ApJS/159/100/table6Kind 1 catalog of R-I and thetarecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
