- Title:
- MK Classification Extension
- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The catalog provides classifications on the Morgan-Keenan (MK) system published in the literature since the appearance of the La Plata catalog (Jaschek et al., 1964). In addition to the MK types, the catalog contains, for REFERENCE PURPOSES ONLY, UBV photometry, some component identifications for multiple systems, and miscellaneous remarks, e.g., cluster membership, although this information is not professed to be complete. A second file of the machine version contains the bibliographical references cited in the data file and indicates classifications done by objective-prism techniques (OP) or from photometric studies (PHOT). Note that extragalactic stars (e.g. in LMC, SMC) are not included.

- MK Classification for HD stars for 25-30{deg} zone
- Short Name:

- Description:
- The catalog contains MK spectral classifications for 1003 HD stars in the zone +25-30{deg}, briefly presented at IAU Colloq. 47, held in Vatican City in July 1978 (1979RA......9..479C). Most stars classified in this region are earlier than G2. The notation is the same as in the earlier paper (1981A&AS...45..455J), with conventions similar to the Houk and Cowley survey (Cats. III/31 and III/51); a noticeable exception is that the luminosity class the most probable stands before the slash. On the average, the classifications present in the catalogue are means of 3 classifications. The internal rms error estimated by the author on a single classification is typically: {sigma}(SpT) = 0.65 (unit 1 subtype) {sigma}(Lum) = 0.40 (unit lum. class) No dependence on spectrum quality is found; however the quality 4 spectra are seldom classified without slashes (which introduces a sort of "internal scatter" into the type) External errors were estimated by a comparison with published work: - Walborn (1971ApJS...23..257W) and Guetter (1968PASP...80..197G) concern early-B stars; - Cowley et al. (1969AJ.....74..375C) and Osawa (1959ApJ...130..159O) concern late-B and A stars; - Harlan et al. (1969AJ.....74..916H, 1970AJ.....75..165H), Hill et al. (1976MmRAS..82...69H) and Heard (1956PDDO....2..105H) concern F stars; - Fehrenbach lists concern all type stars. The comparisons give the following external errors: ----------------------------------------------------- Source N D(SpT) +/- D(Lum) +/- ----------------------------------------------------- Walborn (1971) 5 -.40 +/- .45 -.10 +/- .32 Guetter (1968) 4 -.12 +/- .25 -.12 +/- .25 Cowley et al. 17 -.52 +/- .72 -.09 +/- .53 Osawa (1959) 18 -.22 +/- .77 -.22 +/- .77 Harlan et al. 20 +.20 +/- .69 +.03 +/- .56 Hill et al. 18 -.36 +/- .78 -.19 +/- .55 Heard (1956) 46 -.24 +/- .88 +.10 +/- .47 Fehrenbach et al. 46 +.48 +/-1.39 +.34 +/-1.06 ----------------------------------------------------- These figures should be compared with e.g. Heck and Mersch (1980A&A....83..287H, 1980A&A....85...93M), Cowley et al. (1969AJ.....74..375C), Cowley (1976PASP...88...95C), or Abt (1981ApJS...45..437A)

- Title:
- MK Classification for OB Stars
- Short Name:
- III/23B
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The catalog is a compilation of MK spectral types published in the paper, "The kinematics of the Gould Belt: An Expanding Group?" (Rountree Lesh 1968). Spectral types were determined for 464 stars of Henry Draper type B5 and earlier, brighter than 6.5 visual magnitude and higher than -20 degrees in declination. The spectra were classified by the author using plates taken with the Yerkes 40-inch refractor and MK spectrograph. The catalog contains HR, HD numbers, MK types with temperature classes, subclasses, luminosity classes and peculiarities, and remarks.

- Title:
- MK Classification of Bright Star Supplement
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/155/175
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- MK spectral types are given for about 584 stars in "A Supplement to the Bright Star Catalogue" (Hoffleit et al., 1983, Cat. V/36). The spectra were obtained at Kitt Peak in 1983 on Eastman IIaO emulsions, 15% with the Cassegrain spectrograph on the 2.1m telescope and the rest with a Cassegrain spectrograph on the 0.9m telescope. The spectral types are compared with Hipparcos parallaxes to check the reliability of those classifications. The estimated errors are +/-1.2 subtypes, and 10% of the luminosity classes may be wrong.

- Title:
- MK Classification of Visual Multiples
- Short Name:
- III/106
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The spectral types listed here represent about one-third of a program of MK classification of all the Northern (Dec>-30deg) visual components brighter than B~8.0mag. The spectra used were obtained in 1969-1980 with the Cassegrain spectrograph attached to the Kitt Peak No.2 91-cm telescope. The grating spectra have a dispersion of 128{AA}/mm, and are 1.2mm wide; they are overexposed and underdeveloped to minimize grain. The spectra were classified against standards of the "Revised MK Spectral Atlas for stars earlier than the Sun" by Morgan, Abt and Tapscott (Yerkes Obs. 1978) and of the "Spectral classification" of Morgan and Keenan (1973ARA&A..11...29M). Accurate positions, V magnitudes rounded to 0.1 mag, and remarks were added by B. Skiff in June 2004 as the file "more.dat"; some typos in the catalog were also corrected (see the "History" section below).

- Title:
- MK Classifications of Close Visual Binaries
- Short Name:
- III/117
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Each component of 170 close visual binaries has been classified with new procedures for controlling contamination problems. These classifications are shown to be on the MK system. Two sources of area scanner UBV photometry were compared in order to establish homogeneous photometric as well as spectroscopic data. From a consideration of systematic errors in the V magnitude difference between components the photometry of Hurly and Warner is to be preferred. Absolute magnitudes for each binary are derived from magnitude difference via a tested MK-Mv map.

- Title:
- MK classifications of spectroscopic binaries
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/180/117
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- New MK spectral classifications are given for 145 spectroscopic binaries (SBs) with A-F primaries because two-dimensional types are lacking for more than one-third of the A-F SBs with known orbital elements in the current catalog. Compared with the classifications by Morgan, Keenan, and their students, the new classifications give types that are 1.1+/-0.2 subclasses later and 0.7+/-0.1 luminosity classes fainter. Also listed are selected published MK types from Brian Skiff's recent compilation (Cat. <B/mk>).

- Title:
- MK Standard Stars
- Short Name:
- III/149
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The purpose of the present work is to provide a complete list of MK standard stars, selected from the main papers related to this subject, according to the recommendations of both authors of the MK system. The catalogue provides a list of 963 standard stars, with their spectral type, luminosity, equatorial coordinates, magnitudes, colour index (B-V), and references. The magnitude and colours were taken from Mermillod (1986) UBV Photoelectric Photometry Catalogue (catalog <II/122>). In the cases without observations with the UBV catalogue, the apparent magnitude was taken from the SIMBAD data-base (SIMBAD is described at <http://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/Simbad.html>)

- Title:
- MK, UBV Time and Latitude Stars
- Short Name:
- V/69
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- MK spectral classifications are given for 591 stars which are used for time and latitude observations at Mizusawa and Washington. The classifications in the MK system were made by slit spectrograms of dispersion 73 A/mm at H-gamma which were taken with the 91cm reflector at the Okayama Astrophysical Observatory. Photometric observations in UBV were made with the 1-meter reflector at the Flagstaff Station of U.S. Naval Observatory.
