Abstract:
We present results of astrometric observations of faint V<17mag stars
obtained with the Kyiv meridian axial circle. Observations were
carried out in 2010-2015 in a declination zone of +2 +5.5 degrees and
with use of Johnson V-band filter. The catalogue contains data for
about 2 million of stars.
Description:
The KMAC3 catalogue contain positions (J2000.0) and V magnitudes in
equatorial sky area. Positions are given at mean epoch of
observations. The limiting magnitude is V=17mag. The estimated
accuracies are 60-80mag in positions and 0.04-0.08mag in photometry
for V<15mag stars.

Note (1): The KMAC3 stars are given by the right ascension increase.
Note (2): Positions are given at mean epoch of observations Ep-2000 and
Eq=J2000.0.
Note (3): Unequal number of detections in RA and DE (NRA and NDE) means that a
rejection of bad measurements was applied.
