Keywords: radial velocities - catalogues - stars: kinematic
Description:
We give a common version of the two catalogues of Mean Radial
Velocities by Wilson (1953; catalogue III/21) and Evans (1978;
catalogue III/47) to which we have added the catalogue of
spectroscopic binary systems (Batten et al. 1989; catalogue V/64).
For each star, when possible, we give: 1) an acronym to enter SIMBAD
(Set of Identifications Measurements and Bibliography for Astronomical
Data; see http://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/Simbad.html) of the CDS (Centre
de Donnees Astronomiques de Strasbourg). 2) the number HIC of the
HIPPARCOS catalogue (Turon 1992; catalogue I/196). 3) the CCDM
number (Catalogue des Composantes des etoiles Doubles et Multiples) by
Dommanget & Nys (1994; catalogue I/211). For the cluster stars, a
precise study has been done, on the identification numbers. Numerous
remarks point out the problems we have had to deal with.
REMARKS:
=> In the paper, and in the file "annex2", the equinox of the
coordinates is 1950, whereas 2000 equinox is used for the web catalog;
=> In the paper, read "Wilson (1953)" instead of "Wilson (1963)"

Note on m_HD: the following symbols are used:

$ the radial velocity is that of a sub system (see article section 3.4c)
Note on n_Vmag: the following symbols are used:
* when magnitude is photographic not visual
V for variables stars
: this symbol exists in Evans catalogue (probably for uncertain value)
Note on Sp: column 40 contains, if Wilson luminosity:
c: supergiant
d: dwarf
g: giant
s: subgiant
t: subdwarf
or ":" for HD 12938 for uncertain magnitude
Note on u_RV:
":" for doubtful RV
"*" from original catalogue of Batten (probably for inaccurate RV)
Note on n_RV:
"e" for emission radial velocity

(see article section 3.4)
"g" RV of the gravity center for a sub-system (see article section 3.4)

catalogues

into account
E : Spectroscopic binaries with V0 without signification from
objective prism by Gieseking

it is difficult to identify which component is the spectroscopic
binary.
Note on Catal:
W = Wilson III/21
