Abstract:
According to the cooperation between Beijing, San Juan and La Plata
Astronomical Observatories, the photoelectric astrolabe Mark II(PAII)
of the Beijing Astronomical Observatory was moved and installed at the
San Juan Observatory, Argentina in January, 1992 for observations of
the catalogue of stars in the southern hemisphere. The first observing
period was from Feb. 23, 1992 to Mar. 31, 1997. Using the data
observed in San Juan with the instrument during this period, residuals
for 11002 stars are reduced from about 405700 observations of stars
over 1532 days. The mean precision of the residuals is ±0.043". The
Second Catalogue of Stars (CPASJ2) has been compiled from double
transits at both the eastern and western passages. There are 5241
stars in this catalogue, including 1225 FK5/FK4Supp stars, 794 FK5Ext
stars, 1084 SRS stars, 937 CAMC4 stars, 310 GC stars and 891 IMF
stars. The mean precisions are ±3.2ms and ±0.057" in right
ascension and declination, respectively. The magnitudes of stars are
from 2.0 to 11.5. The declinations are from -3° to -60°. The
mean epoch is 1994.9. Finally, systematic corrections of(CPASJ2-FK5)
are given.
