I/92 Yale Zone Catalogue -60 to -70 (Fallon 1983) ================================================================================ Yale Zone Catalogue: Zone -60{deg} to-70{deg} Fallon F.W. =1983TOYal..32B...1F ================================================================================ ADC_Keywords: Positional data ; Proper motions Description: The original plans for the Southern Yale Zone catalogs were to reobserve and derive strengthened positions and proper motions for all stars in the zones -30 deg to -50 deg and -60 deg to -90 deg. Having been delayed by an incredible number of misfortunes, the zone -60 deg to -70 deg has now been published (Fallon 1983). The catalog contains the measured positions and derived proper motions for the stars in this zone. In addition to the data in the published catalog, this file lists the numbers of the plates measured for each star.

Visual magnitude. 64 A1 --- n_Mag *[*] An asterisk indicates constructed magnitude. 65- 69 F5.2 mag CI *[-1/4]? Color index. 70- 71 I2 --- Images Number of images measured. A pair of grating images is counted as one image. 72- 73 I2 --- Plates Number of plates measured. 74-109 18I2 --- PlateList 18 two-digit numbers identifying plates on which images were measured. If the number measured is less than 18, a zero fill is used for blank fields. 110 I1 --- FieldCode *[0/1] Field star code. 111 A1 --- pmCode *[A-H] Proper motion code. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note on n_Mag and CI: See note in "adc.doc". Note however that the following stars have very high magnitudes are variables or very late-type stars: Magnitude 19.0 for stars #1707 6181 7370 7883 8852 10606 11237 12261 12614 13157 13236 13868 Magnitude 18.8 for stars #2091 5092 Note on FieldCode: This code is always zero, meaning a standard reduction from at least two overlapping plates. See also note in "adc.doc". Note on pmCode: See detailed note in "adc.doc". Short explanations: A = Proper motion taken directly from the CPC (therefore on FK3 system). B = Proper motion Yale - LaPlata positions. C = Same as B but mean from overlapping LaPlate positions D = LaPlata position from NFK (Peters 1907) E = Proper motion from Sydney - Yale plates F = Proper motion from mean of Yale/Sydney compared with LaPlata. G = not explained code; exists for stars #13513 13578 13684 13765 13791 #13814 14256 14257 14271 14299 14384 14411 14432 14470 14496 14497 H = not explained code; exists for star #13661 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Document editing: Nancy G. Roman [SSDOO/ADC] added the key words and description and modified the format table slightly to correspond with the current standard document on 20-Feb-1995. ================================================================================ (End) Francois Ochsenbein [CDS] 20-Jul-1994
