Abstract:
A database of published radial velocities for objects in the
Stephenson-Sanduleak Luminous Stars in the Southern Milky Way catalog
(Cat. III/43) has been compiled from the literature. Of 5132 stars
in the catalog, 1072 velocities (or average velocities) for 864 stars
are available from 49 sources. The full database is available on
CD-ROM, and lists LS number, HD and CD cross identifications, radial
velocity (RV), the standard deviation of the radial velocity
(σ_(RV)), the number of observations on which RV and
σ_(RV) are based, the spectral dispersion employed, notes,
LS-catalog photographic magnitudes, a full reference to each reported
RV, galactic l and b coordinates, and aliases for named or variable
stars.

Note on Disp:
The format of the majority of the dispersions is: type of instrument
used, dispersion in A/mm and the wavelength at which the dispersion
applies. These records incorporate a number of abbreviations, as follows:
A Angstrom
d Hydrogen delta
g Hydrogen gamma
m/A microns per Angstrom
Cass Cassegrain spectrum
