Description:
    For 7255 stars this catalog lists all values of the apparent and
    absolute radii from the literature. Data were compiled beginning 1950
    up to 1985, including some data from 1986 and 1987. The catalogue was
    ordered by identification by HD number or BD number followed by
    variables with constellation names in alphabetical order, followed by
    other abbreviations. The HD and BD numbers were given priority 1 and 2
    respectively over the other identifications. Hence variable stars can
    be found under the name of the constellation only when HD and BD
    numbers are lacking. The apparent magnitudes and spectral types are
    those reported by the authors, as they are basic data used in some
    methods for obtaining the stellar diameters.
