Description:
   The catalogue contains photographic M(PG) and photovisual M(PV) magnitudes
   for 3124 stars in the SA 40 in the international photometric system and 
   photored magnitudes M(PR) in the Harvard photometric system. It is a part of
   the "Catalogue of photographic, photovisual and photored magnitudes for 
   22000 stars" (Voroshilov et al. 1962). The area of 9 square degrees is 
   centered at 20 hours 47 minutes, +45 degrees (1900). The photographic and 
   photovisual magnitudes were obtained, respectively, from three AGFA ASTRO 
   and three AGFA ISS plates taken with the 120/700 mm astrograph, and photored
   magnitudes were obtained from four AGFA ISS plates taken with the 100/500 mm
   astrograph of the main astronomical observatory of the Ukrainian Academy of 
   Sciences in Kiev in 1958/1959. Exposure time was 30 minutes. The magnitude 
   limit is approximately 13.5(PG). The internal mean square errors of the 
   determined values of PG, PV and PR magnitudes are 0.04. The catalogue is 
   arranged in declination zones. The numbering of stars in each zone is 
   approximately in order of right ascension, X and Y coordinates for 
   identification of stars are on the Bergedorfer Spektral Durchmusterung 
   system (Schwassmann et al. 1938).
