Description

This table contains the catalog of the UV Cet-type flare stars and related objects in the solar vicinity. This new catalog of flare stars includes 463 objects. It contains astrometric, spectral and photometric data as well as information on the infrared, radio and X-ray properties and general stellar parameters. This table was created by the HEASARC in October 2005 based on the merger of 3 CDS tables (table1.dat, table2.dat and atble3.dat) from the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+AS/139/555/">CDS Catalog J/A+AS/139/555/</a> . This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
