ADC_Keywords: Radial velocities; Regional catalog
Description:
This catalog contains a list of radial velocities, obtained from "Grand
Prisme Objectif" (GPO) plates from La Silla, for 764 stars in three fields
in the Vela-Carina region of the galaxy. The method of reduction is described
in Duflot and Fehrenbach (1955) and Duflot et al. (1958).

9- 11 I3 --- CPDzone Cape Photographic Durchmusterung zone
13- 16 I4 --- CPDnum Cape Photographic Durchmusterung number
20- 21 I2 h RAh Right Ascension (eq. 1950) hours
23- 24 I2 min RAm Right Ascension (eq. 1950) minutes
26- 27 I2 s RAs Right Ascension (eq. 1950) seconds
31 A1 --- DE- Declination (eq. 1950) sign
32- 33 I2 deg DEd Declination (eq. 1950) degrees
35- 36 I2 arcmin DEm Declination (eq. 1950) arcminutes
40- 42 I3 km/s RV_GPO GPO radial velocity
45- 46 I2 --- nplates Number of plates
49- 50 I2 km/s e_RV_GPO ? Mean error of RV_GPO
53- 57 A5 km/s RV_pub Radial velocity previously published
60 I1 --- age *Class of age of the etalon used
63- 64 A2 --- rem *Remark about dispersion
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note on age:
1 = young star
2 = less young
3 = intermediate
Note on rem:
* = velocity is larger than twice the dispersion
** = velocity is larger than three times the dispersion.
