The Catalogue of Rotational Velocities of Stars in Clusters
Abstract
Compilation of all spectroscopic determinations of projected equatorial rotation velocities of individual stars, members of 7 associations, 27 open clusters and 7 globular clusters, is made. About 3200 V \cdot sin i values are found for 2473 stars. Up to the date we have found 65 papers dealing with V \cdot sin i measurements. Unfortunately, only half of the data contain information about individual errors. For each entry in the catalogue information about method of determination and source reference are presented.
Catalogue is a base for future analysis of evolution of rotation with age for stars of different initial mass.- Publication:
