Description:
A data-base of published UBV beta photoelectric photometry for objects
in the Stephenson-Sanduleak "Luminous Stars in the Southern Milky Way"
(1971PW&SO...1....1S 1971PW&SO...1....1S ; catalogue III/43) has been compiled from the
literature. A total of 7710 observations of 3283 stars from 181
references are incorporated.
