Catalog Service: MK Classifications of Close Visual Binaries
Description
Each component of 170 close visual binaries has been classified with new procedures for controlling contamination problems. These classifications are shown to be on the MK system. Two sources of area scanner UBV photometry were compared in order to establish homogeneous photometric as well as spectroscopic data. From a consideration of systematic errors in the V magnitude difference between components the photometry of Hurly and Warner is to be preferred. Absolute magnitudes for each binary are derived from magnitude difference via a tested MK-Mv map.

This is service that does not comply with any IVOA standard but instead provides access to special capabilities specific to this resource.
This is a standard IVOA service that takes as input an ADQL or PQL query and returns tabular data.
This is a standard IVOA service that takes as input a position in the sky and a radius and returns catalog records with positions within that radius.
