Bibliography of Individual Radial Velocities for Stars in Open Clusters. II. NGC and IC Clusters Mermilliod J.C. <Bull. Inform. CDS 26, 9, (1984)> =1984BICDS..26....9M 1984BICDS..26....9M
ADC_Keywords: Bibliography; Clusters, open; Radial velocities Description: This second part of the bibliography contains 6504 individual radial velocities for 774 stars in 78 open clusters. It is devoted to NGC and IC open clusters. The first part (Mermilliod J.-C., 1979, Bull. Inform. CDS 16,2; catalogue III/55/) contains the data for five nearby open clusters. The collected data have been found in the literature published from 1900 to the end of 1983. This catalog contains also unpublished data which have been delivered to Mermilliod by several authors.

Mermilliod Institut d'Astronomie de l'Universite de Lausanne CH - 1290 CHAVANNES - DES - BOIS History: * The catalog was received at CDS in July 1984 * The decimal point has been added in "Disp" column, and blanks between signs and numbers in column "RV" were removed (January 1997) * Star identifications of the stars were checked (see file "get_star") in Simbad; 2 incorrect references of star designations are annotated in the "File Summary" section above.
