III/36 General Catalogue of Cool Carbon Stars (GCCCS) (Stephenson, 1973)
A General Catalogue of Cool Carbon Stars
Stephenson, C.B.
<Publ. Warner & Swasey Obs. 1, No. 4 (1973)>
ADC_Keywords: Stars, carbon ; Magnitudes ; MK spectral classification
Description:
A catalog of 3219 cool carbon stars of which over 500 were previously
unpublished. Cool carbon stars are defined as stars whose spectra a low
dispersion (no better than 1-2 angstroms) are known to show bands of the
Swan system of the C2 molecule. For each of the stars in the catalog,
photographic, visual, and infrared magnitudes; a spectral classification;
and both equatorial and galactic coordinates are given.
This machine version of the catalog contains the following differences
to the original printer version: (1) The equatorial coordinates have been
quota only to arcseconds for right ascension and to tenths of an arcsecond
for declination; and (2) the galactic coordinates have been calculated
from the equatorial coordinates rather than using the original printed
numbers.
