Description:
    Energy  distributions for 33 galactic (super)giants situated mostly in
    the  southern Milky Way in the range from 4800 to 7700 Angstroems with
    an effective resolution of  10  Angstroems  are  presented  here.  The
    observations  and reductions are described in the paper. The errors of
    the absolute  and relative flux  calibration are 0.028  and 0.021 mag,
    respectively. The S/N ratio is  at  least  80  for  each  star.  Cross
    references,  MK classifications and  spectral indices one  may find in
    the paper. Further informations are available at M.O.Oestreicher
    (mio@astro.ruhr-uni-bochum.de).

    The data are given in three files:
    1) stars.dat
       A list of the programme stars listing the HD/HDE numbers, MK types
       and positions related to J2000
    2) absolute.dat
       A list of absolute fluxes for each star observed under photometric
       conditions (18 stars). The fluxes are given in magnitudes according
       to the system of Hayes & Latham (1975). A monochromatic magnitude
       of 0.00 corresponds to a flux of 3.5x10^-20^ erg.cm-2.s-1.Hz-1,
       (3.5x10^-23^ W/m2/Hz), i.e. the fluxes are related to
       FREQUENCY INTERVALS.
    3) relative.dat
       A list of relative fluxes for each star observed in nights of low
       quality (15 stars). The fluxes are normalized to 1 at 5555 Angstr.
       and are related to WAVELENGTH INTERVALS.
