Abstract:
On the basis of the data observed with the Photoelectric Transit
Instrument, of the Beijing Astronomical Observatory during the period
from 1980 through 1984, the third preliminary catalogue of stars on
right ascension observed with the Photoelectric Transit Instrument
(PPCP3) have been compiled. The relations between the residuals V and
the magnitude M, and the spectral type S of FK4 stars are discussed.
There are 411 stars in this catalogue. The mean precisions of
{DELTA}alpha's is ±2.3ms. Finally systematic corrections of
PPCP3-FK4 are given.
