ADC_Keywords: Stars, late-type ; Radial velocities ; Photometry, infrared
Description:
Radial velocities have been measured for an unbiased sample of 239
late-type M giants in the b=-4° galactic bulge window (Baade's
window). The radial velocities were acquired at the AAT Observatory.

40- 45 F6.1 km/s VrB ? Heliocentric velocity
measured from the blue spectra
47- 50 F4.1 km/s e_VrB ? error on VrB
52- 57 F6.1 km/s VrR ? Heliocentric velocity
measured from the red spectra

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note on TiO: the TiO line strength is defined as 2.5log(F1/F2),
where F1 is the integrated flux over the rest-wavelength range
837-842nm and F2 is evaluated over the range 844-849nm.
Note on CaII: method described by Armandroff & Zinn (1988AJ.....96...92A 1988AJ.....96...92A)
Note on Mbol: assuming Ro = 7.8 kpc from Frogel & Whitford (1987ApJ...320..199F 1987ApJ...320..199F)
