II/95       Stellar Component of the Galaxy, AFGL IR Survey (Grasdalen+ 1983)
================================================================================
The Stellar Component of the Galaxy as seen by the AFGL Infrared Sky Survey
    Grasdalen G.L., Gehrz R.D., Hackwell J.A., Castelaz M., and Gullixson C.
    <Astrophys. J. Suppl., 53, 413, (1983)>

ADC_Keywords: Photometry, infrared; Surveys

Description:
    Measurements at 2.3, 3.6, 4.9, 8.7, 10, 11.4, 12.6, 19, and 23 {mu}m
    are included in this catalog based on observations by the Wyoming
    Infrared Observatory. The sources included are those from the AFGL
    survey with the 4mu magnitude brighter than +1.3, the 11mu magnitude
    brighter than -1.5, or the 20mu magnitude brighter than -4, which lie
    between 20 and 40 minutes in each hour of right ascension.
