Description
We report the discovery of 152 new high proper motion systems ({mu}>=0.4"/yr) in the southern sky ({delta}=-47{deg} to 00{deg}) brighter than UKST plate R_59F_=16.5 via our SuperCOSMOS-RECONS (SCR) search. This paper complements Paper XII (2005, Cat. <J/AJ/129/413>) in the Solar Neighborhood series, which covered the region from {delta}=-90{deg} to -47{deg} and discussed all 147 new systems from the southernmost phase of the search. Among the total of 299 systems from both papers, there are 148 (71 in Paper XII (2005, Cat. <J/AJ/129/413>), 77 in this paper) new systems moving faster than 0.5"/yr that are additions to the classic Luyten Half Second sample (1979, Cat. <I/87>). These constitute an 8% increase in the sample of all stellar systems with {mu}>=0.5"/yr in the southern sky.
