Description:
This catalogue is a compilation of the original data related to stars
in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC); it concerns essentially the stars
brighter than mpg=13.5. The list includes many comments (in English
and French) about errors, identification problems, or membership of
4011 stars.

Note on lmc.txt: in this file, one star is described by a paragraph (set
of lines preceded and followed by a blank line), where the 4 leftmost
digits represent the sequential ID number. The first line of a
paragraph contains the HD number; the second line (labelled CDS2000)
contains the fundamental data extracted from Simbad (in 2005). Each of
the lines following are, either a comment (lines having "Com" or "Rem"
in bytes 5-8), or data formatted in columns:
* bytes 5-15: identifier (see the "Acronyms used" section above)
* bytes 16-35: coordinates, at the Equinox specified in the
"Acronyms used" section below
* bytes 36-59: photometry, made of V, B-V, U-B, and number of
photometric measurements
* bytes 60-68: MK or HD spectral type
* bytes 69-80: radial velocity with quality and number of measurements.

Notes:
(1) in Rousseau et al. catalog (1978A&AS...31..243R 1978A&AS...31..243R) the photometry
may be of 2 sources: one from the objective prism (PO), and the
second from an author indicated by a letter. In this case,
there are 2 lines in the "lmc.txt" file, as "ROU " or "ROU&"
(2) in Rousseau et al. catalog (1978A&AS...31..243R 1978A&AS...31..243R) some stars
are introduced for the first time, and are named with their
truncated coordinates, e.g. 0536-6841, as found later in
Massey (2002ApJS..141...81M 2002ApJS..141...81M)
(3) acronyms not followed by an asterisk (*) are not numbered in
the quoted publication, but identifications from a previous
publication are used.
