Radial Velocity Measurements of Late-Spectral Stars
Abstract
The various programmes already carried out with the two CORAVEL spectrometers yielded so far 25,000 measurements for 10,000 stars, which are likely to be included into the Input Catalogue for the HIPPARCOS mission. These measurements were carried out by astronomers of Geneva, Marseille, Copenhague, Lund and ESO observatories; they already represent 20 to 25% of the total of cool stars of the Input Catalogue. A short description is given, presenting these various measuring programmes and their goals.
