V/11 CATALOGUE OF HIGH VELOCITY STARS ================================================================================ EGGEN O.J.: 1964 Roy. Obs. Bulletin Ser. E 84, E111 ================================================================================ Description: A catalogue is given of 656 stars which have space motions probably exceeding 100km/s with respect to the Sun. In addition to the apparent motions, many of which are new determinations, the catalogue contains the space velocitiy vectors UVW and other parameters (see Byte-per-byte Description below) File Summary: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FileName Lrecl Records Explanations -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Intro 80 .

Note (2): The spectral type is coded on 12 characters: 1-2 = luminosity class (G, SG, D, SD, C ...) 3-4 = type and sub-type 5-10 = luminosity class 11-12 = peculiarities Note (3): The values of proper motions are those which are listed in line 5 of the original catalogue (reduced to N30 system). History: The file was keypunched at CDS. A few errors (mainly misalignements) were corrected in June 1993 for the following running numbers: 69 105 123 144 276 284 285 310 ================================================================================ (End) Francois Ochsenbein [CDS] 15-Jun-1993
