Title:
Proper motion of the Barnard's star

Description:
Within this case you learn that stars that seem "fixed" on the sky may actually move, even if their motion is so slow for the naked eye to be undetectable. You compare two photographs of the Barnard's Star taken several years apart and will be able to estimate its displacement on the sky. Your estimate will be very close to actual measurements.

Stellar Proper Motions in the Ogle II Galactic Bulge Fields

Description:
A proper-motion catalogue of 5080236 stars in 49 OGLE-II Galactic bulge (GB) fields, covering a range of -11°<l<11° and -6°<b<3°. Some columns have been left out from the original source.
23. SuperCOSMOS Sources

SuperCOSMOS Sources
Short Name:

Publisher:
The GAVO DC team
Description:
The SuperCOSMOS data primarily originate from scans of the UK Schmidt and Palomar POSS II blue, red and near-IR sky surveys. The ESO Schmidt R (dec < -17.5) and Palomar POSS-I E (dec > -17.5) surveys have also been scanned and provide an early (1st) epoch red measurement. Mirrored here is the source table containing four-plate multi-colour, multi-epoch data which are merged into a single source catalogue for general science exploitation. Within the GAVO DC, some column names have been adapted to local customs (primarily positions, proper motions).
24. TGAS catalogue
ID:

Title:
TGAS catalogue
Short Name:
tgas.main
Date:

Publisher:
The GAVO DC team
Description:
This table is a subset of GaiaSource comprising those stars in the Hipparcos and Tycho-2 Catalogues for which a full 5-parameter astrometric solution has been possible in Gaia Data Release 1. This is possible because the early Hipparcos epoch positions break some degeneracies due to the limited Gaia time coverage. This table contains a substantial fraction of the around 2.5 million stars in the Hipparcos and Tycho-2 catalogue. Many stars have been excluded due to several reasons, such as saturation, cross-match errors or bad astrometric solution. All rows have Gaia solution id 1635378410781933568.
25. The fifth U.S. Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC5)

Title:
The fifth U.S. Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC5)
Short Name:
UCAC 5
Date:

Publisher:
The GAVO DC team
Description:
New astrometric reductions of the US Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC) all-sky observations were performed from first principles using the TGAS stars in the 8 to 11 magnitude range as reference star catalog. Significant improvements in the astrometric solutions were obtained and the UCAC5 catalog of mean positions at a mean epoch near 2001 was generated. By combining UCAC5 with Gaia DR1 data new proper motions on the Gaia coordinate system for over 107 million stars were obtained with typical accuracies of 1 to 2 mas/yr (R = 11 to 15 mag), and about 5 mas/yr at 16th mag. Proper motions of most TGAS stars are improved over their Gaia data and the precision level of TGAS proper motions is extended to many millions more, fainter stars. The database table uses actual NULLs for missing photometry, and all angular coordinates have been homogenised to degrees.
26. The fourth U.S. Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC4)
ID:
ivo://org.gavo.dc/ucac4/q/s
Title:
The fourth U.S. Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC4)
Short Name:
ucac4 scs
Date:

Publisher:
The GAVO DC team
Description:
UCAC4 is a compiled, all-sky star catalog covering mainly the 8 to 16 magnitude range in a single bandpass between V and R. Positional errors are about 15 to 20 mas for stars in the 10 to 14 mag range. Proper motions have been derived for most of the about 113 million stars utilizing about 140 other star catalogs with significant epoch difference to the UCAC CCD observations. These data are supplemented by 2MASS photometric data for about 110 million stars and 5-band (B,V,g,r,i) photometry from the APASS (AAVSO Photometric All-Sky Survey) for over 50 million stars. UCAC4 also contains error estimates and various flags. All bright stars not observed with the astrograph have been added to UCAC4 from a set of Hipparcos and Tycho-2 stars. Thus UCAC4 should be complete from the brightest stars to about R=16, with the source of data indicated in flags.
27. The Gaia-PS1-SDSS (GPS1) Proper Motion Catalog
ID:
ivo://org.gavo.dc/gps1/q/cone
Title:
The Gaia-PS1-SDSS (GPS1) Proper Motion Catalog
Short Name:
GPS1
Date:
27 Dec 2024 08:31:00
Publisher:
The GAVO DC team
Description:
This catalog combines Gaia DR1, Pan-STARRS 1, SDSS and 2MASS astrometry to compute proper motions for 350 million sources across three-fourths of the sky down to a magnitude of mr≈20. Positions of galaxies from Pan-STARRS 1 are used to build a reference frame for PS1, SDSS, and 2MASS data. Gaia DR1 is adapted to that reference frame by exploiting that locally, proper motions are linear. GPS1 has a characteristic systematic error of less than 0.3 mas/yr, and a typical precision of 1.5−2.0 mas/yr. The proper motions have been validated using galaxies, open clusters, distant giant stars and QSOs. In comparison with other published faint proper motion catalogs, GPS1's systematic error (<0.3 mas/yr) is about 10 times better than that of PPMXL and UCAC4 (>2.0 mas/yr). Similarly, its precision (~1.5 mas/yr) is an improvement by ∼ 4 times relative to PPMXL and UCAC4 (∼6.0 mas/yr). For QSOs, the precision of GPS1 is found to be worse (∼2.0−3.0 mas/yr), possibly due to their particular differential chromatic refraction (DCR).
28. The HSOY Catalog
ID:

Title:
The HSOY Catalog
Short Name:
HSOY SCS
Date:
27 Dec 2024 08:31:06
Publisher:
The GAVO DC team
Description:
HSOY is a catalog of 583'001'653 objects with precise astrometry based on PPMXL and Gaia DR1. Typical formal errors at mean epoch in proper motion are below 1 mas/yr for objects brighter than 10 mag, and about 5 mas/yr at the faint end (about 20 mag). South of -30 degrees, astrometry is significantly worse. HSOY also contains, where available, USNO-B, Gaia, and 2MASS photometry. HSOY's positions and proper motions are given for epoch J2000. The catalog becomes severely incomplete faintwards of 16 mag in the G-band. The mean epochs are typically very close to Gaia's J2015. HSOY still contains about 0.7% spurious close "binaries" (non-matched stars) from the original USNO-B (marked with non-NULL clone). Also, failed matches within Gaia DR1 contribute another 1.5% spurious pairs (marked with non-NULL comp). In both cases, astrometry presumably is sub-standard. More information is available at http://dc.g-vo.org/hsoy.
29. The Lepine-Shara Catalog of High Proper Motion Stars

Title:
The Lepine-Shara Catalog of High Proper Motion Stars
Short Name:
lspm.main
Date:

Publisher:
The GAVO DC team
Description:
The LSPM catalog is a comprehensive list of 61,977 stars north of the J2000 celestial equator that have proper motions larger than 0.15"/yr (local-background-stars frame). Positions are given with an accuracy of <~100 mas at the 2000.0 epoch, and absolute proper motions are given with an accuracy of ~8 mas/yr. The catalog is estimated to be over 99% complete at high Galactic latitudes (|b|>15{deg}) and over 90% complete at low Galactic latitudes (|b|>15{deg}), down to a magnitude.
30. The PPMXL Catalog
ID:

Title:
The PPMXL Catalog
Short Name:
GAVO PPMXL
Date:
27 Dec 2024 08:31:04
Publisher:
The GAVO DC team
Description:
PPMXL is a catalog of positions, proper motions, 2MASS- and optical photometry of 900 million stars and galaxies, aiming to be complete down to about V=20 full-sky. It is the result of a re-reduction of USNO-B1 together with 2MASS to the ICRS as represented by PPMX. This service additionally provides improved proper motions computed according to Vickers et al, 2016 (:bibcode:`2016AJ....151...99V`).
