This catalogue contains observations carried out by the S2/68 Ultraviolet Sky Survey Telescope (UVSST) aboard the ESRO Satellite TD-1, which measured the absolute ultraviolet flux distribution between 2740A (274nm) and 1350A (135nm). The data presented in this catalogue were obtained during the first observation period, which lasted from 19 March 1972 to 31 October 1972, and contains the brightest objects, for which the signal is good enough to give valuable spectrophotometric information. The Faint Star Catalogue, which contains the photometric data of the stars up to the limit of detectability of the instrument, is known as the "Catalogue of Ultraviolet Fluxes", by Thompson et al. (catalog <II/59>) The S2/68 experiment has been described by Boksenberg et al. (=1973MNRAS.163..291B) and the absolute calibration by Humphries et al. (=1976A&A....49..389H).
This catalogue is a supplement of the Ultraviolet Bright Star Spectrophotometric Catalogue (=III/39A). It contains observations carried out by the S2/68 Ultraviolet Sky Survey Telescope (UVSST) aboard the ESRO satellite TD-1. The data presented in this supplement were obtained during the second and third observation periods, which lasted from 19 February 1973 to 30 September 1973 and from 16 February to 6 May 1974. The S2/68 experiment has been described by Boksenberg et al. (=1973MNRAS.163..291B) Owing to the optical scanning mode, most of the stars observed during the first observational period, the spectra of which are included in the "Ultraviolet Bright-Star Spectrophotometric Catalogue", were seen again by the telescope. This supplement, however, has been limited to the spectra of stars that were not observed during the first period. The data reduction and selection criteria are identical to those underlying the main Catalogue and hence the data presented in the Supplement are directly comparable with those in the main Catalogue. The Supplement contains data for 435 stars. For a statistical summary of the observed stars, see the tables I and II in the published version of the Supplement. The spectrum scanning itself was achieved by the movement of a star image across the wide entrance slot of the spectrophotometer, which caused the corresponding spectrum image to pass over the three exit slits in the direction of dispersion. The motion of the primary image during each detector integration interval (0.148 s) was equivalent to 19.4 A, depending on the channel. The wavelength range covered was 1350 - 2550 A. The passband of the photometer channel, defined by a glass transmission filter and the photocathode tube response, was centered at 2740 A and had a full width at half height of 310 A.
Photometric UBVri observations of the symbiotic star AG Dra in Piwnice Observatory, Torun, Poland, are presented in tables 2 and 3. The 60cm telescope and a single-channel photoelectric photometer have been used. Table 2 lists observations with the EMI9558B photomultiplier tube from March 1996 to September 1999. Table 3 lists observations with the cooled C31034 photomultiplier tube from October 2001 to May 2003. Table 4 lists equivalent widths (EW) of the four emission lines in the spectrum of AG Dra: The Raman scattered line at 6825{AA}, H{alpha}, H{beta} and He II 4686{AA}. The spectroscopic observations have been performed in Tartu Observatory, Estonia, using the 1.5m telescope and a Cassegrain spectrograph. The time interval extends from September 1997 to March 2003.
This catalogue is an updated version of the one published in 1990 (Hauck and Mermilliod, 1990) and contains data for more than 63,300 stars in the Galaxy and Magellanic Clouds. In a first table, we present the catalogue itself, giving for each star identifications, coordinates (B1950), visual magnitude, and the mean value of the photoelectric data concerning the star and the data sources. In the second table, we give for each star, the individual measurements. These measurements from which these values were computed were collected from observations published until the middle of 1996. The catalogue includes 533 references.
Accurate standard uvby indices are presented for 73 southern B, A, F and G stars in the V magnitude range 8.2 to 10.9. They cover all three transformation regions of the uvby system (Olsen 1983A&AS...54...55O) well. Standard {beta} indices are included for the 55 B, A, and F stars in the sample. Our results provide a useful set of secondary standards for uvby {beta} CCD photometry with southern hemisphere 1-2m class telescopes. A critical comparison with published photometry, in general based on fewer observations, is given.

CDS
Description:
The catalogue contains mainly two types of visual double stars: Evolved stars with main sequence companions; and systems, for which the IDS gives photometric and spectroscopic data, that suggest the secondary to be above the main sequence if the primary is placed on the main sequence. The photometry has been done with the Danish 50 cm reflector on La Silla, ESO, the limiting magnitude is 12m, separations are larger than 7". Identifications given are IDS, HD, and DM numbers. For each object V, b-y, ml, cl, and beta are given together with the number of nights, weights and r.m.s. errors of one observation (weight 1). The catalogue is published as table IV by E.H. Olsen, Astron. Astrophys. Suppl. 48, 165, where further details and discussion may be found.
A uvbyH{beta} Stromgren photometric survey covering 16sq.deg in the anticenter direction was carried out using the Wide Field Camera (WFC) at the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT), with a typical seeing of 1-1.5". Data from three different observing runs (2009A, 2010B, 2011A) were used for the catalog. The calibration to the standard system was undertaken using open clusters. A main catalog of 35974 stars with all Stromgren indexes, and a more extended one with 96980 stars with partial data. The central 8sq.deg have a limiting magnitude of V=17mag while the outer region reaches V=15.5mag. Two catalogs are available, the first one with the final mean values and a second one with all the individual measurements for each star.
