ADC_Keywords: Clusters, globular; Radial velocities
Description:
Velocities are given for 303 giant stars in the globular clusters
M3, M13, M15, and M92 from spectra obtained with the 3.5-m WIYN
Telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory using the Hydra
multi-fiber positioner and bench spectrograph. The tables provide
the individual identifications, HJD, and velocity for each star
observed. The uncertainties in the velocity measurements are
typically 1 km s^-1 or less.
