Abstract:
We collected almost all of the Galactic infrared carbon stars (IRCSs)
from literature published up to the present to organize a catalog of
974 Galactic IRCSs in this paper. Some of their photometric properties
in the near-, mid-, and far-infrared are discussed.

table4.dat 51 593 *MSX observational data for infrared carbon stars
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes on table4.dat: MSX6C (Egan et al. 2003, Cat. V/114) counterparts;
∼60% of the infrared carbon stars (IRCSs) catalog. Note that 593
sources have MSX data at least in one of the MSX bands, but only 532
sources have good quality data in all of the ACD bands.

Note (1): Source number 049's position is from IRAS PSC (Cat. II/125)
because 2MASS (Cat. II/246) counterpart is not identified.
Note (2): CGCS3 from Alksnis et al., 2001 (Cat. III/227); in Simbad
Note (3): 2MASS counterparts identified according to the procedure from
Chen et al. (2010RAA....10..363C 2010RAA....10..363C).
Note (4): The VH location region in the IRAS two-color diagram
