Description:
This document is intended to serve as a short description of the data
files of the catalogue of 88883 stars of the Henry Draper Extension
Charts. Detailed explanation of the Extension, catalogue production
and so on may be found in the printed paper referenced above.
There are two files comprising the catalogue, namely data file
(CATALOG) and individual remarks file (REMARKS). The format of the
second one is free - it starts with 6-digits HDE number followed by
remark text.
The CATALOG file contains 88883 logical records of the length 61 bytes
each. A detailed description of the record format is given below.
Abstract of Paper:
The Henry Draper Extension Charts (Cannon et al., 1949), published in
the form of finding charts, provide spectral classification for some
87000 stars mostly between 10th and 11th magnitude. This data, being
highly valuable, as yet was practically unusable for modern
computer-based astronomy. An earlier pilot project (Roeser et al.
1991) demonstrated a possibility to convert this into a star
catalogue, using measurements of cartesian coordinates of stars on the
charts and positions of the Astrographic Catalogue (AC) for subsequent
identification. We present here a final HDEC catalogue comprising
accurate positions, proper motions, magnitudes and spectral classes
for 86933 stars of the Henry Draper Extension Charts.
