Catalog Service: Averaged Stellar Radial Velocities
Description
This catalog contains means of measurements of radial velocities of galactic stars. The data supplement the catalogs of Wilson (1953) <III/21> and Evans (1978) <III/47> with observations published through December 1980. There are new mean velocities for 6023 stars with new radial velocity data; more than 4500 of these stars are not in the earlier catalogs. A weighting scheme was used to form the mean velocities with data from cross-correlation spectrometers given highest weight and low dispersion (less than 100 A/mm) spectra given lowest weight. No systematic zero-point corrections were made but observations were taken from the literature only if they were standardized to the IAU or Wilson (1953) systems.

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.
