The ages of field stars given in the catalogue of Cayrel de Strobel et al. (1985) are derived by the five different methods with combination of theoretical isochrones. By using these ages and metal abundances homogenized by Lee and Choe (1988), the age-metallicity relations are obtained. For disk stars of [Fe/H] > -0.9, the present age-metallicity relations are nearly consistent with those given by Twarog (1980) and Carlberg et al. (1985).
From the uvby, H β photometry of intermediate population II F-stars in the catalogue of Olsen (1983), we derived age-metallicity relations for these stars, using Hejlesen's (1980) isochrone. The derived age-metallicity relations well coincide with the theoretical predictions by the unclosed two-zone model of Lee and Ann (1981). There are few extremely metal poor F-stars in the vicinity of the Sun, and it is very likely that the initial rapid metal enrichment in the galactic disk might have been processed through the fast collapse of the disk at the very early epoch.
For F,G,K stars, their photometric data and metallicity, [Fe/H] are collected and their correlations between δ δ (U-B) and [Fe/H] for each spectral group are examined, using a reference sequence which is defined by the stars in Woolley's catalogue and other reference sequences. Detailed examination shows that the reference sequence by Woolley's catalogue appears to be properly defined for the calculation of δ δ (U-B) of population I stars in the solar neighborhood. It is suggested that accuracies of metallicities derived from δ δ (U-B) can be improved if we derive the correlations between [Fe/H] and δ δ (U-B) from the stars in each spectral group.
