III/2 Preliminary General Cat Early-Type Emission Stars (Bertiau+ 1969)
================================================================================
Preliminary General Catalogue of Early-Type Emission Stars
Bertiau F.C., McCarthy M.F.S.J.
<Ricerche Astron. 7, 523 (1969)>
=1969RA......7..523B
================================================================================
ADC_Keywords: Stars, emission; Stars, Be
Description:
The present catalogue presents a list of 3216 stars mostly earlier than type
F which have shown emission features and specifically one or more lines of
the Balmer series in emission. It is a compilation and rearrangement of the
following lists: the Catalogue and Bibliography of Stars of Classes B and A
whose spectra have bright H lines by P. Merrill and C. Burwell, the lists of
Haro and his associates at Tonantzintla, the catalogues of Luminous Stars in
the Northern Milky Way, Vols. I to VI published by the astronomers of the
Hamburger Sternwarte and the Warner and Swasey Obs. Shorter lists of emission
stars published by Parenago, Bidelman and McCarthy and Treanor have also been
included. The present catalogue has a simple aim: to assist the astronomer in
finding from a vast array of articles in the literature whether the star
under investigation has been known to show emission features in the earlier
major surveys of emission stars of early type carried out at the Mount
Wilson, Tonantzila, Hamburg and Warner-Swasey Observatories. The catalogue
includes the star identification, Durchmusterung identification, source
catalog, RA and Dec, Galactic latitude and longitude, apparent magnitude,
spectral classification and remarks.

Note on n_ID:
M = same star is listed in multiple sources
first source only is given in ref
see Table three in the original publication
for additional references
* = uncertain identification of stars in different sources
stars and sources are listed on separate records
Note on DM:
The rubric that was adopted in the Henry Draper Catalogue of denoting
declinations different from the declination of the 1900.0 epoch has
been followed in the present catalogue. For example, Vatican No. 7
which is the equivalent of Star No. 3 in the A catalogue (i.e.
Merrill and Burwell: Mount Wilson Catalogue, Star No. 3) is indicated
as BD -2829 to indicate, by reference to DE (60deg, 4arcmin), that
this star is BD +59 2829. Thus, the "-" denotes in this catalogue
(just as the italics did in the Henry Draper Catalogue) the fact of
the change in declination of the star between the 1855 epoch of the
Bonner Durchmusterung and the 1900 epoch adopted for all the stars
in the present listing.
Note on ref:
The source catalogues where the emission features is noted.
Code letters are indicated in table1.dat
For multiple sources see Table Three in the publication.
() = In a few cases stars in the Luminous Star lists were cited
in more than one catalogue of this series. The LS serial
number listed in parentheses corresponds to the earlier
catalogue.
- = see Note on DM
Note on M:
For stars in the Orion Region, see:
Parenago P. 1954, General Catalogue of Stars in Regions Investigated,
Sternberg Inst. Moscow, 25.
Note on mag:
Apparent magnitudes as found in the original source catalogue.
These are of necessity a mixture of visual magnitudes taken from various
Durchmusterungs, photographic magnitudes interpolated from Selected
Areas, open cluster sequences and in some cases derived directly
by the various authors from visual inspection of spectrum plates.
Hence very large differences in the published magnitudes for the
same star are quite common even apart from the known or suspected
variability of many of these stars.
Note on n_mag:
V = variable star
* = the magnitude is markedly uncertain
Note on Sp:
The letter "e" is omitted since presumably all stars listed have shown
emission characteristics.
Note on n_Sp:
C = refers to the continuous emission feature
L = refers to the line emission beginning at H beta
* = denotes uncertainty in the emission feature observed
