81. Cape Catalog of 20554 Faint Stars, -40 to -52{deg}
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/I/6
Title:
Cape Catalog of 20554 Faint Stars, -40 to -52{deg}
Short Name:
I/6
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This catalog contains positions, precessions, proper motions, and photographic magnitudes for 20,554 stars. These were derived from photographs taken at the Royal Observatory, Cape of Good Hope between 1923 and 1928. It covers the astrographic zones -40 degrees to -52 degrees of declination. The positions are given for epoch 1900 (1900.0). It includes spectral types for many of the stars listed. It extends the earlier catalogs derived from the same plates to fainter magnitudes. The computer-readable version consists of a single data table. The stated probable error for the star positions is 0.024 seconds of time (R.A.) and 0.25 seconds of arc (Dec.) for stars with one determination, 0.017 seconds of time, and 0.18 seconds of arc for two determinations, and 0.014 / 0.15 for stars with three determinations. The precession and secular variations were derived from Newcomb's constants. The authors quote probable errors of the proper motions in both coordinates of 0.008 seconds of arc for stars with one determination, 0.0055 seconds for stars with two determinations, and 0.0044 for stars with three. The photographic magnitudes were derived from the measured diameters on the photographic plates and from the magnitudes given in the Cape Photographic Durchmusterung. The spectral classification of the catalogued stars was done with the assistance of Annie Jump Cannon of the Harvard College Observatory. The user should consult the source reference for more details of the measurements and reductions. See also the notes in this document for additional information on the interpretation of the entries.

Title:
Cape Photographic Catalog 1950.0 (CPC)
Short Name:
I/116
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This catalog includes most of the stars from the 1900.0 Cordoba Zone Catalogues B and C in the zone -30 deg. -35 deg. at the equinox of 1925.0. Some of the fainter Cordoba stars have been omitted in the rather crowded regions in the Milky Way. The aim was to provide accurate places for an average of 9 to 10 stars per square degree as a reference for a rereduction of the AG positions. Most of the stars have visual magnitudes between 7 and 10. Positions and proper motions have been supplied from the General Catalogue for those stars that were too bright for accurate measurement on photographic plates. The positions are on the FK3 system for the equinox of 1950.0. The probable errors of the positions are nominally +/- 0.15" in both right ascension and declination. That of the proper motions should not exceed +/- 1.4"/century, or +/-14 in the units in which the proper motions expressed in arc are given in the catalog.

Title:
Cape Photographic Catalogue 2
Short Name:
I/85
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This catalog contains the provisional positions for 51018 stars in the Cape zone -40 deg. to -52 deg., on the FK4 system for the equinox 1950.0. The internal mean error of a single coordinate obtained from the mean of r=four plates is estimated to be less than +/- 0.1" at the mean epoch of observation, about 1962. The systematic deviation from the FK4 system in a small area is probably also about +/-0.1". New proper motions have been determined for 22731 stars which are also in the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) catalogue; the formal mean error of an annual proper motion in each coordinate is about +/-0.004"/a.
84. Carbon stars from the Hamburg/ESO survey

Title:
Carbon stars from the Hamburg/ESO survey
Short Name:
J/A+A/375/366
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This catalog contains 403 Faint High Latitude Carbon (FHLC) stars selected from the digitized objective prism plates of the Hamburg/ESO Survey (HES). Because of the ~15{AA} spectral resolution and high signal-to-noise ratio of the HES prism spectra, our automated procedure based on the detection of C_2_ and CN molecular bands permits high-confidence identification of carbon stars without the need for follow-up spectroscopy. 329 plates (87% of the survey) were examined, covering 6400deg^2^ to a magnitude limit of V~16.5. The catalog lists coordinates, photometry, and carbon band indices for 403 FHLC stars found in the Hamburg/ESO survey. B_J_ magnitudes are accurate to better than +/-0.2mag, including zero point errors. V magnitudes, B-V and U-B colors were derived by the procedure described in Christlieb et al. (2001A&A...366..898C). We also list an object classification for the sources, where "stars", "bright" and "ext" refer to point sources, sources above a saturation threshold, and sources detected as extended in DSS I images, respectively. We do not list V, B-V and U-B for saturated objects, because our color calibrations are not valid for them. Finally, we list two selection flags.

Description:
The Carlsberg Meridian Telescope (formerly the Carlsberg Automatic Meridian Circle) is dedicated to carrying out high-precision optical astrometry. It underwent a major upgrade in March 1999, with the installation of a 2kx2k CCD camera was installed with a Sloan r' filter operating in a drift scan mode. With the new system, the magnitude limit is 17 (r'mag) and the positional accuracy is in the range 35 to 100 mas. The resulting survey is aimed to provide an astrometric and photometric catalogue in the declination range -30 to +50 degrees. This catalogue is the result of all the observations made between March 1999 and October 2005 in the declination band -30 to +50 -- minus a gap between 5h30m and 10h30m for declinations south of -15. It contains 95,858,475 stars, plus 8,046,291 in the rejected files. Further information can be found in the documentation (cmc14doc.pdf) or at the web site http://www.ast.cam.ac.uk/~dwe/SRF/camc.html . It supersedes the previous versions (Cat. I/282) A dedicated remote query program (findcmc14) can be downloaded from http://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/doc/cdsclient.html

This composite catalogue contains 180812 positions and magnitudes of 176591 stars north of declination -40deg, 155005 proper motions, and 25848 positions and magnitudes of 184 Solar System objects obtained with the Carlsberg Automatic Meridian Circle on La Palma during the period May 1984 to May 1998. It includes Carlsberg Meridian Catalogues Numbers 1 to 11 (CMC1-11); i.e. it comprises all the observations made since the instrument began operation on La Palma. The positions of the stars are for the epoch of observation and the equinox J2000.0, and are referred to the new International Celestial Reference Frame. The limiting magnitude is V=15.4. The catalogue mainly comprises positions and proper motions for the following programmes: 36000 International Reference Stars 30000 faint reference stars in a global net 18000 reference stars in the fields of radio sources 17000 stars in the Lick Northern Proper Motion catalogue 5000 reference stars for calibration of Schmidt plates 2600 stars in the Gliese catalogue of nearby stars 5000 stars in nearby OB associations 10500 F-type stars within 100 pc 9000 G-type dwarfs and giants, K-type giants stars within 300 pc 2200 unbiassed sample of K/M-type dwarf stars 19400 reference stars near Veron-Cetty galaxies 4700 variable stars (12-14 mag) in GCVS 12400 stars (11-14 mag) with pm>0".18/yr in NLTT and several smaller programmes mainly aimed at galactic kinematics. Positions and magnitudes of 12 novae and 8 supernovae which occurred in the years 1991 to 1998 are included. The catalogue also contains observations of the following Solar System objects: Callisto, Ganymede, Rhea, Titan, Iapetus, Hyperion, Uranus, Oberon, Neptune, Pluto and 173 minor planets and Comet P/Wild2. The mean error of a catalogue position in the zenith is 0".09 in right ascension and declination in CMC1-6, improving to 0".06 in CMC7-11. The accuracy in magnitude is 0.05 mag in CMC1-10, improving to 0.03 mag in CMC11. The mean error of the proper motions, derived by combining the position in this catalogue with those at earlier epochs, is typically in the range 0".003 to 0".004 per year. Cross-references are given to DM, AGK, SAO, HD and the double star catalogues ADS and WDS. The catalogue also contains 12216 mean annual observed positions of the FK5 stars used to transfer the instrumental system to the FK5 frame in the years 1984 to 1995. A compilation of all the meteorological data collected in the years 1984-1998, including the atmospheric extinction, is appended. This catalogue supersedes the previous versions which were numbered <I/126> (CMC1 and 2), <I/133> (CMC3), <I/147> (CMC4), <I/170> (CMC5), <I/189> (CMC6), <I/205> (CMC7) and <I/213> (CMC8).

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Carlsberg Meridian Catalogues give accurate positions, proper motions and magnitudes of stars north of declination -45deg and down to 15th magnitude. They also contain observations of the solar system objects: Mars, Callisto, Saturn, Titan, Iapetus, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, and many minor planets. Typical mean errors for an entry are 0.1arcsec in position, 3mas/yr in proper motion, and 0.05mag in magnitude. The stars observed belong to a large number of observing programmes typically dealing with the reference frame or with galactic kinematics. The Carlsberg Automatic Meridian Circle on La Palma is operated by Copenhagen University Observatory, Royal Greenwich Observatory, and Real Instituto y Observatorio de la Armada at the Observatory del Roque de los Muchachos of the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias. For a detailed introduction, please refer to the printed catalogue. A description of the programme may also be found in the 1993 paper by Fabricius (=1993BICDS..42....5F), from which the present description is derived. Originally the CMC7 was planned to contain only observations from 1991. The actual CMC7 comprises nearly 20 month (January 1991 to August 1992) and is thus more extensive than foreseen when a description was published in Bull. CDS (=1993BICDS..42....5F)
