The Frequency of Mid-Infrared Excess Sources in Galactic Surveys
We have identified 230 Tycho-2 Spectral Catalog stars that exhibit 8μm mid-IR extraphotospheric excesses in the MSX and Spitzer GLIMPSEsurveys. Of these, 183 are either OB stars earlier than B8 in which theexcess plausibly arises from a thermal bremsstrahlung component orevolved stars in which the excess may be explained by an atmosphericdust component. The remaining 47 stars have spectral classifications B8or later and appear to be main-sequence or late pre-main-sequenceobjects harboring circumstellar disks. Six of the 47 stars exhibitmultiple signatures characteristic of pre-main-sequence circumstellardisks, including emission lines, near-IR K-band excesses, and X-rayemission. Approximately one-third of the remaining 41 sources haveemission lines suggesting relative youth. We modeled the excesses in 26stars having two or more measurements in excess of the expectedphotospheres as single-component blackbodies. We determine probable disktemperatures and fractional IR luminosities in the range 191K
| The Henry Draper Extension Charts: A catalogue of accurate positions, proper motions, magnitudes and spectral types of 86933 stars
The Henry Draper Extension Charts (HDEC), published in the form offinding charts, provide spectral classification for some 87000 starsmostly between 10th and 11th magnitude. This data, being highlyvaluable, as yet was practically unusable for modern computer-basedastronomy. An earlier pilot project (Roeser et al. 1991) demonstrated apossibility to convert this into a star catalogue, using measurements ofcartesian coordinates of stars on the charts and positions of theAstrographic Catalogue (AC) for subsequent identification. We presenthere a final HDEC catalogue comprising accurate positions, propermotions, magnitudes and spectral classes for 86933 stars of the HenryDraper Extension Charts.
