Description:
   The present catalogue is composed on the base of the sample of F-stars     
   from Philip and Egret (1979) catalogue. The stars for which the value
   delta m(1)(beta)=m(1,zams)-m(1,star)  may be the index of the metallicity 
   are included in the sample.
                                                       
   The sampling criteria are the following: 2.61<=beta<=2.72 (this 
   corresponds approximately to F9-F2 spectral interval); 0.19<=b-y<=0.45 
   (this excludes the B-stars with the same beta as F-stars); delta 
   c(1)<=0.2 (this excludes far evolved stars); e(b-y)>=-0.04 (this excludes 
   the peculiar stars). Values of Fe/H! are calculated from the Nissen (1981)
   calibration:  Fe/H!=-10.5+50*(beta-2.626)*delta m(1)(beta)+0.16 .  
   Distances are given, corrected for extinction. 
                                          
   The eccentricities, apogalactic and perigalactic distances of stars are 
   calculated in the osculating orbits approximation according to the galaxy 
   model from the paper of Eggen et al (1962) when adequate data are 
   available.
