Faint Blue Objects at High Galactic Latitude. VIII. Performance Characteristics of the US Survey
The US survey has cataloged 3987 objects in seven high Galactic latitudefields according to their optical colors, magnitudes, and morphologiesusing photographic techniques. This paper analyzes the effectiveness ofthe survey at producing finding lists for complete samples of hot starsand quasars that exhibit blue and/or ultraviolet excess (B-UVX) relativeto the colors of halo F and G subdwarf stars. A table of 599spectroscopic identifications summarizes the spectroscopic coverage ofthe US objects that has been accomplished to date. In addition, some ofthe survey plates have been reexamined for objects missed during theoriginal selection, and the literature has been searched for all otherspectroscopically identified blue stars and quasars with z<2.2 thathave been selected by other surveys within the US survey areas. Theseresults are used to estimate empirically both the accuracy of the USsurvey selection boundaries (in color, morphology, and brightness) andthe completeness of the resulting samples of B-UVX US objects withinthose boundaries. In particular, it is shown that the reliability of theUS color classifications is high and that the previously derived USmorphological boundary for the complete selection of unresolved quasarsis accurate. The contribution of color and morphological classificationerrors to B-UVX sample incompleteness is therefore correspondinglysmall. The empirical tests indicate high levels of completeness(95+1-2%) for the samples of US quasars and hotstars isolated within the stated survey selection limits. Errata andimprovements to some of the published catalog data are presented inAppendices.
| Radial velocities. Measurements of 2800 B2-F5 stars for HIPPARCOS
Radial velocities have been determined for a sample of 2930 B2-F5 stars,95% observed by the Hipparcos satellite in the north hemisphere and 80%without reliable radial velocity up to now. Observations were obtainedat the Observatoire de Haute Provence with a dispersion of 80Ä,mm(-1) with the aim of studying stellar and galactic dynamics.Radial velocities have been measured by correlation with templates ofthe same spectral class. The mean obtained precision is 3.0 km s(-1)with three observations. A new MK spectral classification is estimatedfor all stars. Based on observations made at the Haute ProvenceObservatory, France and on data from The Hipparcos Catalogue, ESA.Tables 4, 5 and 6 are only available in electronic form at the CDS viaanonymous ftp to cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr or viahttp://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/Abstract.htm
| Vitesses radiales. Catalogue WEB: Wilson Evans Batten. Subtittle: Radial velocities: The Wilson-Evans-Batten catalogue.
We give a common version of the two catalogues of Mean Radial Velocitiesby Wilson (1963) and Evans (1978) to which we have added the catalogueof spectroscopic binary systems (Batten et al. 1989). For each star,when possible, we give: 1) an acronym to enter SIMBAD (Set ofIdentifications Measurements and Bibliography for Astronomical Data) ofthe CDS (Centre de Donnees Astronomiques de Strasbourg). 2) the numberHIC of the HIPPARCOS catalogue (Turon 1992). 3) the CCDM number(Catalogue des Composantes des etoiles Doubles et Multiples) byDommanget & Nys (1994). For the cluster stars, a precise study hasbeen done, on the identificator numbers. Numerous remarks point out theproblems we have had to deal with.
