Description:
This data set is a subset of ultraviolet stellar spectra comprising the highest quality data obtained with both spectrometers aboard the OAO 2. The first file of the data set contains ultraviolet stellar fluxes for 164 bright stars in the spectral range between 1200 to 1300 A, with resolutions of about 22 A in the region from 3600 to 1850 A and about 12 A in the region from 1850 to 1160 A. Files 2 and 3 contain spectra for 132 stars in the region 1200-1850 A and 34 stars in the region 1800-3600 A, respectively, with resolutions as stated above. The data have been published in graphical and tabular form by A.D. Code and M.R. Meade, Astrophys. J. Suppl., v. 39, p. 195, 1979; M.R. Meade and A.D. Code, Astrophys. J. Suppl., v. 42, p. 283, 1980.

Description:
This data set is a machine-readable version of the catalog of Far- Ultraviolet Objective-Prism Spectrophotometry (S-019). The data are on one ASCII tape with two files, created on an IBM 3081 computer. The data set contains arrays of ultraviolet flux measurements at wavelengths of 1300 to 4200 A. The spectra were digitized with a PDS 1010 A microdensitometer, and each spectrum was scanned in a series of strips 30 microns wide. This catalog contains data on 494 stars. The data on each star are quite complex and include a number of parameters in addition to the adopted fluxes. Accompanying this data set is a copy of a document entitled "Documentation for the Machine-Readable Version of the Catalogue of Far-Ultraviolet Objective-Prism Spectrophotometry: Skylab Experiment S-019, Ultraviolet Stellar Astronomy" by R.S. Hill and L.E. Brotzman, 1984 (B35702-000A). For more information on this data set, see the above document or contact Dr. Karl Henize, Code SN3, NASA Johnson Space Center, Houst
