ADC_Keywords: Photometry; Stars, bright
Description:
References are given to the photometric data available for 9008 stars
in the Bright Star Catalog.
Introduction:
A new (1986) version of the General Catalogue of Photometric data
(Hauck et al., 1986) was used to establish a file that indicates the
systems in which a star belonging to the Bright Star Catalogue
(Hoffleit and Jaschek, 1982) has been measured. Fourteen novae or
extended sources were excluded. Two binary systems have separate
entries in the BSC but cannot be resolved photometrically. There is no
photometric data for 86 stars.
