Documentation for the machine-readable version of the Lowell Proper Motion Survey, Northern Hemisphere, the G numbered stars

This catalog contains a summary of many individual papers published in the Lowell Observatory Bulletins in the years 1958 to 1970. The data in the machine-readable version include observed positions, proper motions, estimated photographic magnitudes and colors, and references to identifications in other catalogs. Photoelectric data on the UBV system are included for many stars, but no attempt was made to find all existing photometry. The machine version contains all data of the published catalog, except the Lowell Bulletin numbers where finding charts can be found. A separate file contains the notes published in the original catalog.

Documentation for the machine-readable version of a supplement to the Bright Star catalogue (Hoffleit, Saladyga and Wlasuk 1983)

Detailed descriptions of the three files of the machine-readable catalog are given. The files of the original tape have been restructured and the data records reformatted to produce a uniform data file having a single logical record per star and homogeneous data fields. The characteristics of the tape version as it is presently being distributed from the Astronomical Data Center are given and the changes to the original tape supplied are described.

Documentation for the machine-readable version of the SAO-HD-GC-DM cross index version 1983

An updated and extended machine readable version of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory star catalog (SAO) is described. A correction of all errors which were found since preparation of the original catalog which resulted from misidentifications and omissions of components in multiple star systems and missing Durchmusterung numbers (the common identifier) in the SAO Catalog are included and component identifications from the Index of Visual Double Stars (IDS) are appended to all multiple SAO entries with the same DM numbers, and lower case letter identifiers for supplemental BD stars are added. A total of 11,398 individual corrections and data additions is incorporated into the present version of the cross index.

Documentation for the machine-readable version of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory Star catalogue (SAO) version 1984

An updated, corrected and extended machine readable version of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory star catalog (SAO) is described. Published and unpublished errors discovered in the previous version have been corrected, and multiple star and supplemental BD identifications added to stars where more than one SAO entry has the same Durchmusterung number. Henry Draper Extension (HDE) numbers have been added for stars found in both volumes of the extension. Data for duplicate SAO entries (those referring to the same star) have been blanked out, but the records themselves have been retained and flagged so that sequencing and record count are identical to the published catalog.

Documentation for the machine-readable version of the general catalogue of 33342 stars for the epoch 1950 (Boss 1937)

A revised and corrected version of the machine-readable catalog has been prepared. Cross identifications of the GC stars to the HD and DM catalogs have been replaced by data from the new SAO-HD-GC-DM Cross Index (Roman, Warren and Schofield 1983), including component identifications for multiple SAO entries having identical DM numbers in the SAO Catalog, supplemental Bonner Durchmusterung stars (lower case letter designations) and codes for multiple HD stars. Additional individual corrections have been incorporated based upon errors found during analyses of other catalogs.

Documentation for the machine-readable version of the Survey of the Astrographic Catalogue From 1 to 31 Degrees of Northern Declination (Fresneau 1983)

A description of the machine readable catalog, including detailed format and tape file characteristics, is given. The machine file is a computation of mean values for position and magnitude at a mean epoch of observation for each unique star in the Oxford, Paris, Bordeaux, Toulouse and Northern Hemisphere Algiers zone. The format was changed to effect more efficient data searching by position and additional duplicate entries were removed. The final catalog contains data for 997311 stars.

Documentation for the machine-readable version of A Catalogue of Extragalactic Radio Source Identifications (Veron-Cetty and Veron 1983)

Detailed descriptions of the data and reference files of the updated and final version of the machine-readable catalog are given. The computerized catalog has greatly expanded since the original published version (1974), and additional information is given. A separate reference file contains bibliographical citations ordered simultaneously by numerical reference and alphabetically by author.

Documentation for the machine-readable version of the ANS Ultraviolet Photometry Catalogue of Point Sources (Wesselius et al 1982)

The machine-readable version of the Astronomical Netherlands Satellite ultraviolet photometry catalog is described in detail, with a byte-by-byte format description and characteristics of the data file given. The catalog is a compilation of ultraviolet photometry in five bands, within the wavelength range 155 nm to 330 nm, for 3573 mostly stellar objects. Additional cross reference data (object identification, UBV photometry and MK spectral types) are included in the catalog.

Documentation for the machine-readable version of the Perth 75: A Catalogue of Positions of 2589 FK4 and FK4S Stars (Nikoloff and Hog 1982)

Detailed descriptions of the data and format of the machine-readable astronomical catalog are given. The machine version is identical in data content to the published edition, but minor modifications in the data format were made in order to effect uniformity with machine versions of other astronomical catalogs. Stellar motions and positions at epoch and equinox 1950.0 are reported.

Documentation for the machine-readable version of the Stellar Spectrophotometric Atlas, 3130 A lambda 10800 A of Gunn and Stryker (1983)

The machine-readable version of the Atlas as it is currently being distributed from the Astronomical Data Center is described. The data were obtained with the Oke multichannel scanner on the 5-meter Hale reflector for purposes of synthesizing galaxy spectra, and the digitized Atlas contains normalized spectral energy distributions, computed colors, scan line and continuum indices for 175 selected stars covering the complete ranges of spectral type and luminosity class. The documentation includes a byte-by-byte format description, a table of the indigenous characteristics of the magnetic tape file, and a sample listing of logical records exactly as they are recorded on the tape.

Documentation for the machine-readable version of A Library of Stellar Spectra (Jacoby, Hunter and Christian 1984)

The machine readable library as it is currently being distributed from the Astronomical Data Center is described. The library contains digital spectral for 161 stars of spectral classes O through M and luminosity classes 1, 3 and 5 in the wavelength range 3510 A to 7427 A. The resolution is approximately 4.5 A, while the typical photometric uncertainty of each resolution element is approximately 1 percent and broadband variations are 3 percent. The documentation includes a format description, a table of the indigenous characteristics of the magnetic tape file, and a sample listing of logical records exactly as they are recorded on the tape.

Documentation for the machine-readable version of A Finding List for the Multiplet Tables of NSRDS-NBS 3, Sections 1-10 (Adelman, Adelman, Fischel and Warren 1984)

The machine-readable finding list, as it is currently being distributed from the Astronomical Data Center, is described. This version of the list supersedes an earlier one (1977) containing only Sections 1 through 7 of the NSRDS-NBS 3 multiplet tables publications. Additional sections are to be incorporated into this list as they are published.

Documentation for the machine-readable version of the Cordoba Durchmusterung (CD)

The machine-readable version of the catalog, as it is currently being distributed from the Astronomical Data Center, is presented. The complete catalog is contained in the magnetic tape file, and corrections published in all corrigenda were made to the data. The machine version contains 613959 records, but only 613953 stars (six stars were later deleted, but their logical records are retained in the file so that the zone counts are not different from the published catalog).
