1. Algiers AC Zone Data Reduced to ACRS
ID:

Title:
Algiers AC Zone Data Reduced to ACRS
Short Name:
I/223
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The U.S. Naval Observatory is in the process of making new reductions of the Astrographic Catalogue (AC) using a modern reference system, the ACRS, which represents the system of the FK5. The data from the Algiers Zone, whose plates are centered between declinations -2 and +4 degrees (eq. 1900), have been analyzed for scale, rotation, tilt, coma, magnitude equation, radial distortion and distortions introduced by the use of reseaux in the Carte du Ciel program. The result is a positional catalog of over 199,000 stars on eq. J2000.0, epoch of observation. The plate were exposed between 1891 and 1912. For cross-identification purposes, all stars have been matched with the Tycho Input Catalog (revised); those numbers have been added to each record.
2. A Multiplet Table for MnI
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/VI/34
Title:
A Multiplet Table for MnI
Short Name:
VI/34
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The machine-readable version of "A Multiplet Table for MnI" contains data on excitation potentials, J values, multiplet terms, intensities of the transitions, and multiplet numbers. Files ordered by multiplet and by wavelength are included.
3. Calibrator of exoplanet-host stars
ID:

Title:
Calibrator of exoplanet-host stars
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/414/108
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Phase-referenced interferometric astrometry offers the possibility to look for exoplanets around bright stars. Instruments like PRIMA (Phase-Referenced Imaging and Micro-arcsecond Astrometry) will measure the astrometric wobble of a candidate star due to an exoplanet relative to a close-by 'calibrator' star, located within the instrument's observing field (1-arcmin in the PRIMA case). Stars with already known exoplanets will constitute the first targets for this technique, as it will provide a way to further specify the characteristics of the known exoplanets, such as the inclinations. The main requirement is to have a calibrator in the vicinity of the star. We provide here a list of calibrators for all stars with known exoplanets obtained using data mining and Virtual Observatory techniques. This list is available online and revised regularly. The calibrators are found from catalogues available at Centre de Donnees astronomiques de Strasbourg (CDS) using the SearchCal software developed at Jean-Marie Mariotti Center (JMMC). In our test case, the calibrators are found within 1 arcmin angular distance for approximately 50 per cent of the stars tested, and often closer. They are all faint objects from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) with K magnitudes between 13 and 15. A list of the most promising targets is also given.
4. Cape AC Zone Data Reduced to ACRS

Title:
Cape AC Zone Data Reduced to ACRS
Short Name:
I/219
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The U.S. Naval Observatory is in the process of making new reductions of the Astrographic Catalogue (AC) using a modern reference system, the ACRS, which represents the system of the FK5. The data from the Cape Zone, whose plates are centered between declinations -41 and -51 degrees (eq. 1900), have been analyzed for scale, rotation, tilt, coma, magnitude equation, radial distortion and distortions introduced by the use of reseaux in the Carte du Ciel program. The result is a positional catalog of over 544,000 stars on eq. J2000.0, epoch of observation. Additionally, all stars have been matched with the Tycho Input Catalog (revised); those numbers have been added for additional identification purposes.

Title:
Finding List of Interacting Binaries, 5th ed.
Short Name:
VI/44
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This catalog is abstracted from the Card Catalog maintained at the University of Florida containing information on all published, and to the extent available, unpublished work on eclipsing binaries. The fifth edition differs from the previous ones in the extension of the magnitude limit at maximum light from 13 to 15. The catalog fields are Finding List number; star name; position (equinox 1900); blue magnitude at maximum light; bandpass of maximum light; depth of primary minimum in same bandpass; bandpass primary minimum; depth of secondary minimum and its bandpass; spectral class of star eclipsed at primary light and optional uncertainty character; spectral class of star eclipsed at secondary light; most recent reliable epoch of primary minimum; most recent orbital period; duration of primary minimum; duration of totality of primary minimum; BD, CoD, CPD, and HD number; alternate designations of system; codes indicating the nature of the system.
6. San Fernando AC Zone Data Reduced to ACRS
ID:

Title:
San Fernando AC Zone Data Reduced to ACRS
Short Name:
I/222
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The U.S. Naval Observatory is in the process of making new reductions of the Astrographic Catalogue (AC) using a modern reference system, the ACRS, which represents the system of the FK5. The data from the San Fernando Zone, whose plates are centered between declinations -3 and -9 degrees (eq. 1900), have been analyzed for scale, rotation, tilt, coma, magnitude equation, radial distortion and distortions introduced by the use of reseaux in the Carte du Ciel program. The result is a positional catalog of over 225,000 stars on eq. J2000.0, epoch of observation. Additionally, all stars have been matched with the Tycho Input Catalog (revised); those numbers have been added for additional identification purposes.
