Abstract
An overview of the Hipparcos and Tycho photometric data is presented, with reference to the main aspects of the data reductions and the overall quality and quantity of the results. The data have been presented in three forms: as mean values in the astrometric catalogues, as epoch photometry, and as interpreted results of the variability analysis, which is also briefly described.
