Proper motions
This catalog, listing the proper motions of 20,843 stars
from the Cape Astrographic Zones, was compiled from three series of
photographic plates. The plates were taken at the Royal Observatory,
Cape of Good Hope, in the following years: 1892-1896, 1897-1910,
1923-1928. Data given include centennial proper motion, photographic
and visual magnitude, Harvard spectral type, Cape Photographic
Durchmusterung (CPD) identification, epoch, right ascension and
declination for 1900.

Catalogue of 20554 Faint Stars in the Cape Astrographic Zone -40 to -52 Degrees

Cape 20554 Faint Stars, -40 to -52, 1900.0
Positional data
Proper motions
This catalog contains positions, precessions, proper motions, and
photographic magnitudes for 20,554 stars. These were derived from
photographs taken at the Royal Observatory, Cape of Good Hope between 1923
and 1928. It covers the astrographic zones -40 degrees to -52 degrees of
declination. The positions are given for epoch 1900 (1900.0). It includes
spectral types for many of the stars listed. It extends the earlier
catalogs derived from the same plates to fainter magnitudes. The
computer-readable version consists of a single data table.
The stated probable error for the star positions is 0.024 seconds of time
(R.A.) and 0.25 seconds of arc (dec.) for stars with one determination,
0.017 seconds of time, and 0.18 seconds of arc for two determinations, and
0.014 / 0.15 for stars with three determinations.
The precession and secular variations were derived from Newcomb's constants.
The authors quote probable errors of the proper motions in both coordinates
of 0.008 seconds of arc for stars with one determination, 0.0055 seconds for
stars with two determinations, and 0.0044 for stars with three.
The photographic magnitudes were derived from the measured diameters on the
photographic plates and from the magnitudes given in the Cape Photographic
Durchmusterung.
The spectral classification of the cataloged stars was done with the
assistance of Annie Jump Cannon of the Harvard College Observatory.
The user should consult the source reference for more details of the
measurements and reductions. See also the notes in this document for
additional information on the interpretation of the entries.

Proper motions
Improved proper motions for the 1160 stars contained in the photometric
catalog by Dickow et al. (1970) are presented. Most of the proper motions
are from the GC, transferred to the system of FK4. For stars not included
in the GC, preliminary AGK or SAO proper motions are given. Fogh Olsen
(Astron. Astrophys. Suppl. Ser., 1, 189, 1970) describes the method of
improvement. The mean errors of the centennial proper motions increase with
increasing magnitude. In Right Ascension, these range from 0.0043/cos(dec)
for very bright stars to 0.096/cos(dec) for the faintest stars. In Dec-
lination, the range is from 0.065 to 1.14.

Catalog of 3356 Faint Stars, 1950
Fundamental catalog
Positional data
Proper motions
This catalog of 3356 faint stars was derived from meridian circle
observations at the Bergedorf and Heidelberg Observatories. The
positions are given for the equinox 1950 on the FK3 system. The stars
are mainly between 8.0 and 10.0 visual magnitude. A few are brighter
than 8.0 mag. The lower limit in brightness resulted from the visibility
of the stars.
All stars were observed at both the Heidelberg and Bergedorf
Observatories. Normally, at each observatory, two observations were
obtained with the clamp east and two with the clamp west. The mean
errors are comparable for the two observatories with no significant
systematic difference in the positions between them. The mean errors of
the resulting positions should be approximated 0.011s/cos(dec) in right
ascension and ).023" in declination.
The proper motions were derived from a comparison with the catalog
positions with the positions in the AGK2 and AGK2A with a 19 year
baseline and from a comparison of new positions with those in Kuestner
1900 with about a fifty year baseline.
The magnitudes were taken from the AGK2. Most spectral types were
determined by A. N. Vyssotsky. A few are from the Bergedorfer
Spektraldurchmusterung.

Astrographic zones

Positional data
The "Carte de Ciel" (or "Astrographic Catalogue") is a catalogue of star
positions and magnitudes, determined on the photographic plates taken
by the normal astrographs which are installed in observatories of various
latitudes, as a world-wide astronomical project (see Eichhorn, 1974, p279).
The catalogue is divided into 22 declination zones, each of which is
assigned to each observatory, e.g., a zone from +18 to +24 degrees is to
Paris observatory.
Each observatory has taken photographs of 2 deg x 2 deg area in and covering
each zone, measured the X,Y coordinates of star images on the photographic
plates, and published the results as the printed catalogues.
The present catalogue is the results of reduction of these X,Y coordinates
into right ascension and declination values, for declination zones of +05
to +31, by using AGK2/3 catalogue as the reference.
