An investigation of the activity of the flare star AD Leo was made using U-band patrol observations. 60 cm computer-controlled telescopes with identical single channel photon-counting photometers at the National Astronomical Observatory at Rozhen and at the Belogradchik Observatory were used. The integration time was 1 sec. Differential photometry was carried out, the AD Leo measurements were made relative to BD+20°2475. The data was reduced with the program package APR (Kirov et al. 1991).Two simultaneous observing runs were made. The results of the first have already been published (Antov etal. 1991). The other was part of the observational campaign in May, 1991 with the ROSAT satellite. In Bulgaria, the observations were carried out at Rozhen in the U-band and at Belogradchik in the B-band. Four flares were detected by both.

Recent photoelectric observations made at Catania Observatory show a high occurrence of short-lived faint flares on the Hyades member II Tau (H II 2411). Its activity level turns out to be higher than for UV Cet-type stars of equal absolute luminosity.II Tau could represent a transition prototype between UV Cet-type flare star in the solar neighbourhood and cluster ones.The importance of coordinated photoelectric patrol of properly selected flare stars in clusters of different age is emphasized.

From a proper motion survey by Pels and photometric measurement of selected stars it was found that the Pleiades cluster extends till at least 496 from the centre, corresponding to 10 pc at a distance of 125 pc. It turns out that the luminosity function of the Pleiades is a function of the distance to the centre, the proportion of faint stars increasing with this distance. Because of this, the luminosity function as it was determined before flattened towards fainter stars, whereas for the total field with a diameter of 20 pc one finds a luminosity function that is still increasing at the faint end. Flare star observations in the Pleiades field show that the increase amounts to at least a factor 20 in the mass range 2 to 0.4 M⊙. Accurate proper motions of stars in the projected central field show a dispersion of velocities in the cluster of 700 m/sec. This could indicate a total mass of the Pleiades cluster of the order of 2000 M⊙.
