Description
The goal of our survey is to provide accurate and multi-epoch radial velocities, atmospheric parameters (Teff, logg and [M/H]), distances, and space velocities of faint red clump (RC) stars. We recorded high signal-to-noise (S/N>=200) spectra of RC stars over the 4750-5950{AA} range at a resolving power 5500. The target stars are distributed across the great circle of the celestial equator. Radial velocities were obtained via cross-correlation with IAU radial velocity standards. Atmospheric parameters were derived via {chi}^2^ fit to a synthetic spectral library. A large number of RC stars from other surveys were re-observed to check the consistency of our results and the absence of offsets and trends.
