Catalogue of WBVR-magnitudes of bright stars of the northern sky.
Abstract
This publication contains the catalogue of photoelectric magnitudes of bright stars of the northern sky in the WBVR four-colour photometric system. For 13586 objects (stars and multiple systems) the V-magnitudes and W-B, B-V, and V-R colour indices are given, which were obtained from original observations made during the Tien Shan expedition of the Sternberg Institute in the years 1985 to 1988. The catalogue contains practically all stars brighter than 7m2 with declination greater than -14°. Further the authors give informations on the observational instruments, the photometric system of the catalogue, on the duplicity and variability for a considerable part of stars of the catalogue.
