A Galactic O Star Catalog
Abstract
We have produced a catalog of 378 Galactic O stars with accurate spectral classifications that is complete for V<8 but includes many fainter stars. The catalog provides cross-identifications with other sources; coordinates (obtained in most cases from Tycho-2 data); astrometric distances for 24 of the nearest stars; optical (Tycho-2, Johnson, and Strömgren) and NIR photometry; group membership, runaway character, and multiplicity information; and a Web-based version with links to on-line services.
