A Radial Velocity Database for Stephenson-Sanduleak Southern Luminous Stars
Abstract
A database of published radial velocities for objects in the Stephenson-Sanduleak Luminous Stars in the Southern Milky Way catalog has been compiled from the literature. Of 5132 stars in the catalog, 1072 velocities (or average velocities) for 864 stars are available from 49 sources. The full database is available on CD-ROM, and lists LS number, HD and CD cross identifications, radial velocity (RV), the standard deviation of the radial velocity (σRV), the number of observations on which RV and σRV are based, the spectral dispersion employed, notes, LS-catalog photographic magnitudes, a full reference reported RV, galactic l and b coordinates, and aliases for named or variable stars.
