Superseded Proper Motions of 8790 Stars with Ref to Galaxies (Klemola+ 1971)
================================================================================
Catalogue of Proper Motions of 8790 Stars with Reference to Galaxies
Klemola A.R., Vasilevskis S., Shane C.D., Wirtanen C.A.
<Publ. Lick Obs. XXII, Part II (1971)>
================================================================================
ADC_Keywords: Positional data ; Proper motions
Description:
Proper motions are given for 7978 stars measured with reference to the
system of galaxies are presented. The proper motions are based on two
series of plates taken with the 20-inch Carnegie Astrograph of the Lick
Observatory at epochs separated on the average by 19.2 years. There are
83 fields with an average of 56 galaxies per field. The mean error of
the reference frame affects the proper motion in each coordinate by an
average amount of 0.16"/cen. The mean error of an individual proper
motion is about 0.7"/cen. in each coordinate, and that of a blue
magnitude is about 0.2mag.
The file contains a running number for each field, an AGK3 or Yale Zone
number and magnitude, if available, the X and Y coordinates of the star
on the first epoch plates, and the type of image measured and the proper
motions and magnitudes from this project.
