Description:
The published report was prepared by R. T. Hall (1974) for the
Space and Missile systems Organization, Air Force System Command.
The machine version includes a 10-micrometer catalog number, object
name, right ascension and declination (B1950), galactic coordinates
(B1950), proper motions, spectral types, magnitudes in the V (0.55
micrometers), I (0.84 mu), K (2.2 mu) and N (10 mu) bands, flux
measurements at 10 mu, and cross identifications to the numbering
systems of the Durchmusterung catalogs, the SAO catalog, the Bright
Star Catalogue, The Henry Draper Catalogue and the GC, and CalTech
Two-Micron Sky Survey (Neugebauer and Leighton, 1969) where such
identifications exist.

Note on Name:
Star name hierarchy
(1) Bayer Greek alphabetic notation
(2) Argelander variable star notation
(3) Flamsteed number
(4) Bayer Roman alphabetic notation
(used as little as possible because of
lowercase letters)
(5) Other notation
Greek letters mu and nu are spelled muu and
nuu to eliminate confusion with Argelander
variable star notation.
Note on Flux_m1, Flux_m2 and Flux_m3:
The original Flux measurements (x 10^(-16) W/cm2 /micron) are
given, separated by commas. Also, units of original measurement
and filter band used are given. If no letter or letters follow
a given, value, then original value has units of W/cm2 /micron.
The letter designations have the following meanings:
A. Original measurement expressed in magnitude
B. Original measurement expressed in W/m2 /Hz
C. Original measurement made with N (Prime) filter
D. Original measurement made with O filter
E. N-filter value obtained by interpolation
between N (prime) and O measurements
F. Original measurement made with 10 micron filter
G. Original measurement made with 10.1 micron filter
H. Original measurement made with 10.2 micron filter
I. Original measurement made with 10.7 micron filter
J. Original measurement made with 11.0 micron filter
K. Original measurement made with 11.5 micron filter
L. Original measurement made with 12-14 micron filter
History:
The catalogue of 10 micron Celestial Objects was a published report
by R. T. Hall (Aerospace Corporation) for the Space and Missile
System Organization (report number SAMSO-TR-74-212) in 1974. The
catalogue was received in card deck form from Hall through the
National Space Science Data Center (NSSDC) at NASA/GSFC. The
catalogue was transferred to magnetic tape with an equal number of
bytes for each record and changing some special symbols as
described below.
Modifications and Remarks:
This document includes the original ADC documentation of this catalog
prepared by Theresa A. Nagy.
Several special characters which are not part of the IBM 360 print
chain were changed to correspond with the print chain available on
the IBM 360 series at NASA/GSFC.

Quantities in the flux/micron (x10-16) field which have any of
the symbols (<, <=) should have in the N magnitude field the
corresponding opposite relation (>, >=), respectively. In the
hard copy of the catalogue there were several pairs which did
not have such a one-to-one correspondence, and the following
changes were made to correct this situation, assuming in all
cases that the relationship associated with the flux/micron
value was the "correct" relationship.

Catalogue Number Printed Catalogue Tape Version

101081 3.49 >3.49
010301 7.30 >7.30
All of the entries preceded by the symbol "<" in the tape version
of the catalogue include those which should be preceded by either
the "<" symbol or the "<=" symbol. Since the latter symbol is not
available in the print chain on the computer used here at
NASA/GSFC, the symbol "<" includes both cases. The following is
a list of the ten-micron sources where the value of flux/micron
should be preceded by a "<=" sign.
000411 020616 090201 120161 131471 190272
000412 020941 090692 120181 170051 191011
000481 021201 100204 120281 170061 210911

010321 080331 120122 130231 180981
010322 081341 120123 130421 181132
Similarly, all of the above entries should include the equality with the ">"
symbol in the N magnitude field.
The catalog was reformatted in April 1995 where the implicit
decimal point was made explicit. Special symbols were separated
from the data values and excessive blank columns were removed.
