I/68A   Positions and Proper Motions in alpha Per cluster  (Fresneau, 1980)

Positions and proper motions OF 1981 stars in the vicinity of α Per Fresneau A. <Bull. Inform. CDS 18, 81 (1980)> =1980BICDS..18...81F 1980BICDS..18...81F
ADC_Keywords: Positional data ; Proper motions ; Regional catalog Description: A list of positions and proper motions is given for 2027 stars of magnitude 7.5 to 12.5 within a radius of 3.5 deg. of alpha Persei. The values are poor for stars fainter than 11. The present list supersedes the microfiche edition (catalogue I/68/) which was described in the Bull. Inform. CDS 18, 81 (1980).

Nachr. 283, 109 (Mitt. Hamburger Sternw. 1956MiHam..10...37H 1956MiHam..10...37H) if the star belongs to Heckmann's list Note on BD: this identification is not in BD when a dash (-) follows the degree zone number. Note on e_RAs, e_DEs, e_pmRA, e_pmDE: a zero mean error means that only one observation is available, and hence the mean error is undefined. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
