We present metallicity and photometric parallax calibrations for the F and G type dwarfs with photometric, astrometric and spectroscopic data. The sample consists of 168 dwarf stars covering the colour, iron abundance and absolute magnitude intervals $0.30<(B-V)_0<0.68$ mag, $-2.0<[Fe/H]<0.4$ dex and $3.4<M_V<6.0$ mag, respectively. The means and standard deviations of the metallicity and absolute magnitude residuals are small, i.e. $langleDelta[Fe/H]_{res}rangle=0$ and $sigma=0.134$ dex, and $langleDelta (M_V)_{res}rangle=0$ and $sigma=0.174$ mag, respectively, which indicate accurate metallicity and photometric parallax estimations.

We used the updated [Fe/H] abundances of 168 F-G type dwarfs and calibrated them to a third order polynomial in terms of reduced ultraviolet excess, $delta_{0.41}$ defined with $ugr$ data in the SDSS. We estimated the $M_g$ absolute magnitudes for th e same stars via the re-reduced Hipparcos parallaxes and calibrated the absolute magnitude offsets, $Delta M_g$, relative to the intrinsic sequence of Hyades to a third order polynomial in terms of $delta_{0.41}$. The ranges of the calibrations are $-2<$[Fe/H]$leq$0.3 dex and $4<M_gleq6$ mag. The mean of the residuals and the corresponding standard deviation for the metallicity calibration are 0 and 0.137 mag; while, for the absolute magnitude calibration they are 0 and 0.179 mag, respectively. We applied our procedures to 23,414 dwarf stars in the Galactic field with the Galactic coordinates $85^{circ}leq bleq90^{circ}$, $0^{circ}leq lleq360^{circ}$ and size 78 deg$^{2}$. We estimated absolute magnitude $M_g$ dependent vertical metallicity gradients as a function of vertical distance $Z$. The gradients are deep in the range of $0<Zleq5$ kpc, while they are very small positive numbers beyond $Z=5$ kpc. All dwarfs with $5<M_gleq6$ mag are thin-disc stars and their distribution shows a mode at $(g-r)_0approx 0.38$ mag, while the absolute magnitudes $4<M_gleq5$ are dominated by thick disc and halo stars, i.e. the apparently bright ones ($g_0leq18$ mag) are thick-disc stars with a mode at $(g-r)_0sim0.38$ mag, while the halo population is significant in the faint stars ($g_0>18$ mag).
We present the results of CCD $UBV$ photometric and spectroscopic observations of the open cluster NGC 225. In order to determine the structural parameters of NGC 225, we calculated the stellar density profile in the clusters field. We estimated the probabilities of the stars being physical members of the cluster using the existing astrometric data. The most likely members of the cluster were used in the determination of the astrophysical parameters of the cluster. We calculated the mean radial velocity of the cluster as $V_{r}=-8.3pm 5.0$ km s$^{-1}$ from the optical spectra of eight stars in the clusters field. Using the U-B vs B-V two-colour diagram and UV excesses of the F-G type main-sequence stars, the reddening and metallicity of NGC 225 were inferred as $E(B-V)=0.151pm 0.047$ mag and $[Fe/H]=-0.11pm 0.01$ dex, respectively. We fitted the colour-magnitude diagrams of NGC 225 with the PARSEC isochrones and derived the distance modulus, distance and age of the cluster as $mu_{V}=9.3pm 0.07$ mag, d=585$pm$20 pc and $t=900pm 100$ Myr, respectively. We also estimated the galactic orbital parameters and space velocity components of the cluster and found that the cluster has a slightly eccentric orbit of $e=0.07pm 0.01$ and an orbital period of $P_{orb}= 255pm 5$ Myr.
We present the calibration of the [$alpha/$Fe] element in terms of ultra-violet excess for 465 dwarf stars with spectral type F0-K2. We used a single calibration, fitted to a third degree polynomial with a square of the correlation coefficient 0.74 a nd standard deviation 0.05 mag, for all stars due to their small colour range, $0.1<(g-r)_0leq 0.6$ mag, and high frequency in the blueward of the spectrum which minimize the guillotine effect. Our calibration provides [$alpha/$Fe] elements in the range $(-0.05, 0.35]$ dex. We applied the procedure to a high-latitude field, $85^circ leq b leq 90^circ$ with size 78 deg$^2$ and we could estimate the [$alpha/$Fe] elements of 23,414 dwarf stars which occupy a Galactic region up to a vertical distance of $z=9$ kpc. We could detect a small positive gradient, $d[alpha/{rm Fe}]/dz=+0.032 pm0.002$ dex kpc$^{-1}$, for the range $0<z<5$ kpc, while the distribution of the [$alpha/$Fe] element is flat for further $z$ distances.

We analysed the open clusters Czernik 2 and NGC 7654 using CCD UBV photometric and Gaia Early Data Release 3 (EDR3) photometric and astrometric data. Structural parameters of the two clusters were derived, including the physical sizes of Czernik 2 be ing r=5 and NGC 7654 as 8 min. We calculated membership probabilities of stars based on their proper motion components as released in the Gaia EDR3. To identify member stars of the clusters, we used these membership probabilities taking into account location and the impact of binarity on main-sequence stars. We used membership probabilities higher than $P=0.5$ to identify 28 member stars for Czernik 2 and 369 for NGC 7654. We estimated colour-excesses and metallicities separately using two-colour diagrams to derive homogeneously determined parameters. The derived $E(B-V)$ colour excess is 0.46(0.02) mag for Czernik 2 and 0.57(0.04) mag for NGC 7654. Metallicities were obtained for the first time for both clusters, -0.08(0.02) dex for Czernik 2 and -0.05(0.01) dex for NGC 7654. Keeping the reddening and metallicity as constant quantities, we fitted PARSEC models using colour-magnitude diagrams, resulting in estimated distance moduli and ages of the two clusters. We obtained the distance modulus for Czernik 2 as 12.80(0.07) mag and for NGC 7654 as 13.20(0.16) mag, which coincide with ages of 1.2(0.2) Gyr and 120(20) Myr, respectively. The distances to the clusters were calculated using the Gaia EDR3 trigonometric parallaxes and compared with the literature. We found good agreement between the distances obtained in this study and the literature. Present day mass function slopes for both clusters are comparable with the value of Salpeter (1955), being X=-1.37(0.24) for Czernik 2 and X=-1.39(0.19) for NGC 7654.
We present the updated photometric calibration of the twelve optical passbands for the Javalambre Photometric Local Universe Survey (J-PLUS) second data release (DR2), comprising 1088 pointings of two square degrees, and study the systematic impact o f metallicity in the stellar locus technique. The [Fe/H] metallicity from LAMOST DR5 for 146184 high-quality calibration stars, defined with S/N > 10 in J-PLUS passbands and S/N > 3 in Gaia parallax, was used to compute the metallicity-dependent stellar locus (ZSL). The initial homogenization of J-PLUS photometry, performed with a unique stellar locus, was refined by including the metallicity effect in colours via the ZSL. The variation of the average metallicity along the Milky Way produces a systematic offset in J-PLUS calibration. This effect is well above 1% for the bluer passbands and amounts 0.07, 0.07, 0.05, 0.03, and 0.02 mag in u, J0378, J0395, J0410, and J0430, respectively. We modelled this effect with the Milky Way location of the J-PLUS pointing, providing also an updated calibration for those observations without LAMOST information. The estimated accuracy in the calibration after including the metallicity effect is at 1% level for the bluer J-PLUS passbands and below for the rest. We conclude that photometric calibration with the stellar locus technique is prone to significant systematic bias along the Milky Way location for passbands bluer than lambda = 4500 A. The updated calibration method for J-PLUS DR2 reaches 1-2% precision and 1% accuracy for twelve optical filters within an area of 2176 square degrees.
