ADC_Keywords: Planetary nebulae ; Radial velocities Keywords: catalogues - planetary nebulae - Galaxy (the): kinematics of Description: We present a compilation of radial velocities for 867 galactic planetary nebulae (Table 2.ps [postscript format] and Table2.dat [ascii format]). File Summary: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FileName Lrecl Records Explanations -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ReadMe 80 . This file table2.dat 52 867 Radial velocities for 867 Planetary Nebulae (PNe) table2.ps 83 7260 *Radial velocities for 867 Planetary Nebulae (PNe) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note on table2.ps: the PS version includes also high-, medium- and low-resolution velocities, SECAT (V/84) and recent literature data. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- See also: V/84 : Strasbourg-ESO Catalogue of Galactic Planetary Nebulae (Acker+, 1992) Byte-by-byte Description of file: table2.dat -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bytes Format Units Label Explanations -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1- 15 A15 --- Name Usual name of PN 18- 28 A11 --- PNG Name (from Galactic position) (1) 30- 38 A9 --- PK PK number 41- 46 F6.1 km/s HRV Adopted heliocentric radial velocity (2) 49- 52 F4.1 km/s e_HRV Adopted velocity uncertainty (2) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note (1): SB 44 and SB 45 having the same PN G number, SB 44 = PN G356.0-7.4A, SB 45 = PN G356.0-7.4B Note (2): Final data are calculated by a weighted average (see the article for more explanations) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- History: * 09-Oct-1998: First version which included a few errors in PN cross-identifications. * 23-Oct-1998: Problems in cross-identifications fixed. * 30-May-2005: table slightly reformatted: the PNG number was substituted to the galactic longitude and latitude.
