ADC_Keywords: Stars, variable
Description:
The tables below show identifications and precise positions for a
group of variables found by Walter Baade (1928AN....232...65B 1928AN....232...65B) during
his Bergedorfer days. The stars reported in this survey are of some
historical interest because it was as a result of this work that Baade
conceived ideas that led to his later recognition of the two stellar
populations among Galactic stars (cf. Osterbrock, 1995, Journ. Hist.
Astron., 26, 1).
