Reddened Early m- and S-Type Stars Near the Galactic Equator.
Abstract
A list is given of 89 early M-type stars whose objective-prism spectra indicate abnormal reddening. The catalogue probably contains a high proportion of distant supergiants. In addition, a list of 31 new S-type stars is given which were detected by the presence of LaO bands in their spectra. Both groups of stars are within a galactic belt 4 wide from longitude 333 through zero to 201 . The catalogues are accompanied by a brief discussion of the distribution of these objects.
