Description


The Edinburgh-Cape Blue Object Survey seeks to identify point sources with an ultraviolet excess. Results for zone 2 of the survey are presented here, covering that part of the South Galactic Cap between 30 and 40{deg} from the Galactic plane and south of about -12.3{deg} of declination. Edinburgh-Cape zone 2 comprises 66 UK Schmidt Telescope fields covering about 1730sq.deg, in which we find some 892 blue objects, including 423 hot subdwarfs (~47%); 128 white dwarfs (14%); 25 cataclysmic variables (~3%); 119 binaries (~13%), mostly composed of a hot subdwarf and a main-sequence F or G star; 66 horizontal branch stars (~7%) and 48 "star-like" extragalactic objects (~5%). A further 362 stars observed in the survey, mainly low-metallicity F- and G-type stars, are also listed. Both low-dispersion spectroscopic classification and UBV photometry are presented for almost all of the hot objects and either spectroscopy or photometry (or both) for the cooler ones.
