Abstract:
    For 58 exciting sources of Herbig-Haro objects/jets (HHES)  we present
    a catalogue of  photometric  data  for  the  infrared  spectral  bands
    JHKLMNQ  (1-20 um).  This catalog is based on our own observations and
    published information available up to May 1992. For each source, these
    data  are  presented  in  chronological  order.  In  addition  to  the
    broad-band data,  narrow-band  N(8-13 um)   photometric data  are also
    provided.  The flux  calibration for  each observational  equipment is
    explicitly noted as  the diaphragm sizes  are used.  The  same kind of
    information for the  established  members  of  the  FU  Ori  class  is
    complementing  the HHES catalogue.  The  frequency of observations and
    the photometric quality of the catalogued data are shortly discussed.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note on r_Obs, r_lambda:
     the original reference number was changed, to be compatible
     with reference numbers of table1.

Note on u_Obs:
     <  if the date of the observation is not known but it is less than
        the one which is given.
     *  the date of the observation is uncertain and one should refer
        to the paper for details.

Note on x_Value, Value, e_Value:
     x_Value specifies the unit as follows:
     "MA" if data is a magnitude.
     "ML" if data is a lower limit magnitude.
     "JY" if data is given in Jansky.
     "JL" if data is an upper limit in Jansky
     "MJ" if data is given in milliJansky
     "W8" if data is given in units of 10^-14^ Watts/m^2^/{mu}m
     When x_Value is "ML" or "JL" Unit:
          Value is an upper limit, and
        e_Value gives the {sigma} (if known) of the limit.

Note on n_diaph, diaph:
     The diaphragm diameter is provided when n_diaph is blank.
     For other values of n_diaph:
     < circular diaphragm, upper limit of the diameter is given
     > circular diaphragm, lower limit of the diameter is given
     R rectangular diaphragm, integer and decimal parts of the
       diaph value represent the RA and DE dimensions of the diaphragm.
     V diaphragm diameter is known within a range, integer and decimal
       parts of the diaph value represent lower and upper limits of
       the range.
