Keywords: stars: rotation
Description:
The catalog is an up-to-date compilation of the observed projected
rotational velocities, Vrot*sin(i), for about 12000 stars of all
spectral types and luminosity classes; the bibliographical survey is
complete up to November 2000. The catalog.dat file contains 17490
individual Vrot*sin(i) data, together with the errors and the
methods of determinations. For users convenience Uesugi and Fukuda
(CDS Cat/III/63) data are included in the main catalogue. Detailed
description of error evaluation and categorisation of method of
determination of Vrot*sin(i) values are given in Glebocki and
Stawikowski (2000AcA....50..509G 2000AcA....50..509G). The bibliographical references are
provided in refs.dat file.

Note (1): A=prim., B=sec., T=tertiary, C=cold, H=hot.
For other designations see the referenced paper.
Note (2): If V magnitude was not given in the Simbad Database, then
the B filter magnitude was used.
Note (3): The symbols <,≤,>,≥ denote that vsini is an upper or
lower limit. Colon (:) indicates an uncertain value, double-colon
(::) indicates very uncertain value. The apostrophe (') is used for
estimation of error given for the whole analysed sample.
Note (4): The symbols have the following meaning:
FTLP = Fourier Transform of Line Profile,
C-C = Cross-correlation technique,
FWHM = Calibrated line width at half maximum,
Conv = Convolution with calculated rotational broadening,
LW = Comparison (eye) with standards,
Ref = Special procedure: see the referenced paper.
