Abstract

We have used recent Kurucz models and many standard stars to revise previous calibrations of the Geneva photometric parameters in terms of Teff, logg, and [M/H]. In addition, new parameters pT and pG were defined, which are the Geneva equivalents of Stromgren's a and r parameters and allow to estimate Teff and logg for stars with intermediate temperature (spectral type A0-A3). A fortran code (calib.f) has been written, which applies our calibration to stars measured in the Geneva system. A conspicuous change in slope appears in the grid d vs B2-V1. It seems to be linked with the onset of convection in the superficial layers of the star's envelope.
