Description:
This data set contains 937 sets of spectrophotometric observations of
stellar continua made in the 320-1200nm region. The data were
transformed to the Hayes and Latham (1975ApJ...197..593H 1975ApJ...197..593H) calibration
of α Lyr. Bandpasses vary between 1 and 10nm. Note that scans of
the southern stars observed by Gutierrez-Moreno et al.
(1968SanS....4...49G 1968SanS....4...49G) are NOT corrected for the right ascension
effects discussed in Breger (1976).

Remarks and Modifications (C.-H. Joseph Lyu, 22-Jun-1995):
The Catalog of Spectrophotometric Scans of Stars (Breger, M.
1976, Ap.J. Supp., 32, 7.) was received in machine-readable form
from Dr. S. Parsons (University of Texas) on March 11, 1976.
The version as received consisted of a 7-track 800 bpi magnetic
tape with two files. The first file contained the analysis
program as written for the CDC 6600 computer and the second file
represents the original data. The analysis program was then
converted to run on the IBM S/360 at NASA/GSFC and the data was
processed. Some corrections to the original analysis program
had to be made due to the differences in the computers, but since
the result of the analysis was a listing of the data as given in
the above reference - checks were possible at every step of the
analysis. The output was then reformatted so that the data would
be in a format that allowed easy access to the data. As the
catalogue was checked out, a number of star name errata were noticed.
