Description:
This catalog was initially compiled at the Abastumani Observatory,
containing photographic BV magnitudes and spectral classes for about
6000 stars up to V(lim)=13.0mag in five circular areas of 18°2
located near the galactic-equator plane; the observations were made
with the Abastumani 70cm Maksutov plus 4° and 8° prisms,
yielding dispersions of 166 and 666 Å/mm at H-γ.
The compilation did not provide the star positions, and the magnitudes
were found to have a rms scatter around 0.15mag, i.e. around 0.2mag
for the B-V color index. The charts were compared with the GSC1.1
(Cat. I/220) by B. Skiff (Lowell Observatory) thus providing accurate
coordinates; B. Skiff also examined the cross-identifications with
several other catalogues, and added the notes.
