1. AGK3 Catalogue
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/I/61B
Title:
AGK3 Catalogue
Short Name:
I/61B
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The AGK3 provides positions and proper motions for stars north of -2.5 degrees. For the most part, it contains the stars in the AGK2 but is based on newly remeasured reference stars whose positions were reduced to the FK4 system. A list of 446 AGK2 stars not in the AGK3 and of three new stars is provided. All plates were taken at the Bergedorf Observatory. In addition to the positions and proper motions, the catalog contains magnitudes and spectral types, the epoch of the observations, the epoch difference between the AGK2 and AGK3, and the BD numbers.

Title:
Algiers AC Zone Data Reduced to ACRS
Short Name:
I/223
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The U.S. Naval Observatory is in the process of making new reductions of the Astrographic Catalogue (AC) using a modern reference system, the ACRS, which represents the system of the FK5. The data from the Algiers Zone, whose plates are centered between declinations -2 and +4 degrees (eq. 1900), have been analyzed for scale, rotation, tilt, coma, magnitude equation, radial distortion and distortions introduced by the use of reseaux in the Carte du Ciel program. The result is a positional catalog of over 199,000 stars on eq. J2000.0, epoch of observation. The plate were exposed between 1891 and 1912. For cross-identification purposes, all stars have been matched with the Tycho Input Catalog (revised); those numbers have been added to each record.

Title:
2728 asteroid positions (Kitab obs.)
Short Name:
J/other/OAP/31.2
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
Photographic observations of XX century contained numerous and varied information about all objects and events of the Universe fixed on the astronegatives. The original and interesting observations of small bodies of the Solar system in previous years can be selected and used for various scientific tasks. Existing databases and online services can help make such selection easily and quickly. The observations of chronologically earlier oppositions, photometric evaluation of brightness for long periods of time allow refining the orbits of asteroids and identifying various non-stationarities. Photographic observations of the Northern Sky Survey project (FON project) were used for global search for small bodies of Solar system. About 2000 photographic plates of Kitab part of the FON project were made using Double Wide Angle Astrograph at the Kitab observatory (Uzbekistan) during 1981-1989. Early, using that digitized observations the catalogue of equatorial coordinates and stellar magnitudes for more than 13 million stars and galaxies up to B=17.5m was compiled. At present, we analyzed all processing results for the search of asteroids and compiled the catalogue of equatorial coordinates and stellar magnitudes of them. As a result more than 4500 asteroids and comets with visual magnitude from 7.7m to 17.5m were identified now. All positions of asteroids were compared with ephemeris. A preliminary analysis of O-C differences was carried out. New and interesting are that the moments of official discovery of some identified asteroids much later than their moments of Kitab's observation. In addition, some of them are the earliest observations of these asteroids in the world among all known observations. More than 915 observations of such asteroids have been found on the plates of Kitab part of the FON project.
4. Astrographic Catalogue, +01 to +31 Degrees
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/I/96
Title:
Astrographic Catalogue, +01 to +31 Degrees
Short Name:
I/96
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This machine-readable version of the Astrographic Catalogue (AC), zones +01 to +31 degrees is the result of the determination of mean values for position and magnitude at a mean epoch of observation for each unique star in the original catalogs. The zones considered here (Oxford, Paris, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Algiers [partial]) contained 1,870,976 individual measures, from which the catalog of mean data for 1,025,208 stars was derived. Further analysis by Dr. D.W. Dunham and at the ADC yielded an additional 27897 apparently duplicate entries, which were eliminated to produce the final catalog. The estimated mean standard errors for positional and magnitude data are 0.4 arcsec in each coordinate and 0.4 mag, respectively. Data in this version include <m(pg)>, <Epoch>, <RA> at mean epoch, <DEC> at mean epoch. The mean values are unweighted. No star identifications are provided; hence the user must select stars from the catalog and then identify them in other catalogs or on charts using the equatorial coordinates.
5. 2292 astrometric positions of asteroids
ID:

Title:
2292 astrometric positions of asteroids
Short Name:
J/other/KFNT/34.
Date:
22 Feb 2022
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
A catalogue of equatorial coordinates and magnitudes for 2162 asteroids and 11 comets was compiled based on the results of processing of digitized photographic observations of the northern sky performed in 1981-1985. The positions were compared with the JPL DE431 ephemeris. The mean (O-C)_RA,DE_ values for all positions obtained in this comparison are -0.08" and 0.04", and their root-mean-square errors are 0.70" and 0.64" in {alpha} and {delta}, respectively. It was found that the observations of 54 asteroids predate their discoveries, and the observations of four of them are the earliest known for these asteroids.

9. Cape Photographic Catalog 1950.0 (CPC)
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/I/116
Title:
Cape Photographic Catalog 1950.0 (CPC)
Short Name:
I/116
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This catalog includes most of the stars from the 1900.0 Cordoba Zone Catalogues B and C in the zone -30 deg. -35 deg. at the equinox of 1925.0. Some of the fainter Cordoba stars have been omitted in the rather crowded regions in the Milky Way. The aim was to provide accurate places for an average of 9 to 10 stars per square degree as a reference for a rereduction of the AG positions. Most of the stars have visual magnitudes between 7 and 10. Positions and proper motions have been supplied from the General Catalogue for those stars that were too bright for accurate measurement on photographic plates. The positions are on the FK3 system for the equinox of 1950.0. The probable errors of the positions are nominally +/- 0.15" in both right ascension and declination. That of the proper motions should not exceed +/- 1.4"/century, or +/-14 in the units in which the proper motions expressed in arc are given in the catalog.

Title:
Catalog of Coma Cluster Galaxies
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
A homogeneous photometry catalog is presented for 450 galaxies with B25.5 <= 16 mag located in the 9.8 x 9.8 deg region centred on the Coma Cluster. The catalog is based on photographic photometry using an automated surface photometry software for data reduction applied to B-band Schmidt plates. The catalog provides accurate positions, isophotal and total magnitudes, major and minor axes, and a few other photometric parameters including rudimentary morphology (early or late type).
