IV/1 Transit Tables for Open Clusters (Mermilliod 1979)
================================================================================
A Compilation of Transit Tables for Star Numberings in Open Clusters

Description:
This catalog is a compilation of transit tables for star numbering in 50
open clusters. It represents an updated and enlarged version of lists of
transit tables prepared by the CDS earlier in the 1970's (Mermilliod 1972,
1973b). It adds numbering systems published after 1973 to the earlier work.
This catalog is intended to facilitate the study of open clusters by
providing cross-identifications and by giving a census of the stars numbered
and studied in the field of a cluster. At the time of preparation, the
author developed the tables to include all existing numbering systems for
each cluster. All cross-identifications found in the literature were
included. Most identifications were done by the author by comparing
published finding charts or x,y coordinates. The author warns that some of
the identifications are ambiguous, but does not indicate which are
considered to be ambiguous.
The catalog is organized into separate tables for each of the 50 clusters.
Each contains the cluster identification, bibliographic references, and the
transit table. Thus while the record length remains at 80 bytes throughout,
the record structure changes within each file as follows:
Record 1: cluster identification
Records 2-15: bibliographic references
Records 16-end: transit table
The columns of the table are defined by the bibliographic reference list.
The first column contains the star identification number from the table.
The remaining columns contain the corresponding numbers from each reference
in the order listed in records 2-15.
