Abstract:
Results for the remaining zones of the Edinburgh-Cape (EC) Blue Object
survey are presented. These are incomplete, but lie in that part of
the South Galactic Cap between 50deg and 90deg from the Galactic plane
and south of about -12.3° of declination. This part of the survey
comprises 79 UK Schmidt Telescope fields covering about 2150deg2, in
which we find 536 blue objects - including hot subdwarfs (∼33 per
cent), white dwarfs (∼30 per cent), binaries (∼12 per cent),
cataclysmic variables (∼1.5 per cent) and some 'star-like' galaxies
(∼12 per cent). A further 254 stars observed in the survey, mainly
low-metallicity F- and G-type stars, are also listed. Low-dispersion
spectroscopic classification is given for all the hot objects and UBV
photometry for most of them. Either spectroscopy or photometry is
listed for the cooler types.
Description:
The spectroscopic and photometric results from Zones 4-6 of the EC
Survey are given in Tables 3 and 4; Table 3 lists the hot objects and
Table 4 the cooler objects.
