- Description:
- The definition, construction and realization of a reference system is one of the oldest and most fundamental tasks of astronomy. Currently, the ICRS (International Celestial Reference System), realized by the ICRF (International Celestial Reference Frame) or ICRF2, is the reference system adopted by the IAU. It is based on the very precise VLBI positions of a few hundred compact extragalactic radio sources. Despite its excellent precision, the ICRF is far from providing a reference system that is available for the entire sky and accessible to all observers. The ICRF has to be densified and extended to other wavelengths, mainly to the optical domain where the astronomical activities are more intense. For this reason, the IAU has recommended and encouraged works in this direction over the years. Many of them were developed to give sometimes good positions and proper motions, but they are very limited in magnitude, while others are extremely dense and deep in magnitude but have low accuracy, mainly for the proper motions. Nevertheless, all these contributions are very important because they are complementary. We present a homogeneous and precise optical astrometric catalog that extends the ICRF in the direction of 12 low-extinction windows of the Galactic bulge and provides at the same time a useful database for kinematic studies.

- M2000: Bordeaux Carte du Ciel zone +11<Dec<+18

- Description:
- During four years, systematic observations have been conducted in drift scan mode with the Bordeaux automated meridian circle in the declination band [+11 ; +18]. The resulting astrometric catalog includes about 2 300 000 stars down to the magnitude limit V_M_=16.3. Nearly all stars (96%) have been observed at least 6 times, the catalog being complete down to V_M_=15.4. The median internal standard error in position is about 35mas in the magnitude range 11<V_M_<15, which degrades to about 50mas when the faintest stars are considered. M2000 provides also one band photometry with a median internal standard error of 0.04mag. Comparisons with the Hipparcos and bright part of Tycho-2 catalogs have enabled to estimate external errors in position to be lower than 40mas. In this zone and at epoch 1998, the faint part of Tycho-2 is found to have an accuracy of 116mas in alpha instead of 82mas deduced from the model-based standard errors given in the catalog.

- Optical positions of 221 radio stars
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- This catalog contains optical positions of 221 radio stars observed with the Bordeaux automatic meridian circle. The observations were strictly differential, a convenient number of FK5 stars being used each night to calculate the instrumental parameters. The mean positions were corrected for chromatic refraction and also for photocenter effect in the case of duplicity. The asymptotic accuracy is expected to be about 0.05" for the Northern stars with a number of observations greater than 25. Some positions have been published previously, and the improved positions given here supersede earlier published data.

- Title:
- Perth 75 Catalogue
- Short Name:
- I/97
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The catalog contains results of approximately 60000 photoelectric meridian circle observations made at the Perth Observatory for 1156 FK4 and 1433 FK4 Supplement stars south of declination +38 degrees. The catalog reports proper motions and positions at epoch and equinox B1950.0. The data used to derive the epoch 1950 positions are included in the catalog so that originally observed positions may be recomputed and used for geodetic purposes until the FK5 becomes available. The mean error of an individual position in this catalog is 0.07" in right ascension and 0.13" in declination at a zenith distance of 45 degrees, while the mean error of the PERTH 75 system is 0.05" in right ascension and 0.10" in declination. The positions do not contain the large systematic errors of the FK4 (Fricke and Kopff 1963), which can be, for example 0.3" in right ascension for declination < -75 degrees. Data in the catalog included FK4 (FK4S) number, observed visual magnitude, spectral type used for computing refraction, right ascension and declination (equinox and epoch B1950.0), annual proper motion, observed residuals, numbers of accepted observations, and code to indicate if parallax and/or radial velocity has been used in computing apparent positions.

- Description:
- The PFKSZ is based on 14 catalogues, observed at 10 observatories (Bucharest, Wroslaw, Kiev, Goloseevo-GAO, Kazan, GAISH, Odessa, Pulkovo, Tashkent, Kharkov). The catalogue PFKSZ contain 587 stars from 7.3 to 8.4 vis.mag. Most of the catalogues have been obtained from differential meridian observations in the FK3 system. The proper motions were found in the FK3 system mainly from GC, AGK2 (or AGK2A), Yale and PFKSZ catalogues. The precision of PFKSZ catalogue is Mean Error(in Alfa x cos Decl.) = +/- 0.0068 timesec Mean Error(in Decl.) = +/- 0.127 arcsec for the mean epoch 1949.0.

- Pulkovo Photographic Vertical Circle (PVC96)
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- The catalogue PVC96 is published. This is the first version of catalogue of declinations of FK5 (<I/149>) fundamental stars derived from the observations made with the Zverev photographic vertical circle (PVC) of the Pulkovo observatory in 1987-1994. The given comparison of the PVC96 with the HIP (<I/196>) catalogue obtained by the Hipparcos space project demonstrates that mean error of declination in the PVC96 is 0.1arcsec which corresponds to estimation made a priori.
