Abstract:
    The precise positions and proper motions (J2000.0) of 1535 Basic FK5
    (FK4) stars in FK5 system (Cat. <I/149>) have been used in the
    reduction of local vertical monitoring and catalog observations at the
    Beijing Astronomical Observatory. The same data of 1987 FK4Sup stars,
    in which 980 stars denoted with "F" will be included in FK5, are also
    available recently from Heidelberg by courtesy of Prof Tong Fu, the
    Director of the Purple Mountain Observatory. The positions and proper
    motions of the other 1007 FK4Sup stars in FK5 system have been given
    by the Astronomisches Rechen-Institut in Heidelberg with comparatively
    low accuracy. However, the physical data, such as the visual
    magnitudes and the spectral types of these stars with rather larger
    uncertainties are originated from the Henry Draper Catalogue since the
    compilation of FK4 and FK4Sup (Cat. <I/143>). The more accurate visual
    magnitudes are available in the well-defined photoelectric system and
    the spectral types in MK-system that may be found, for example, in the
    Bright Star Catalogue (Cat. <V/50>) and a Supplement to this catalogue
    (Cat. <V/36>).
