CDROM/AJ/V106/P2575 Proper Motions (Ruiz+ 1993) ================================================================================ Proper Motions in the Southern ESO Areas 207, 439, and 440 Maria Teresa Ruiz, Marianne Y. Takamiya, Rene Mendez, Jose Maza, & Marina Wishnjewsky <1993, AJ, 106, 2575> =1993AJ....106.2575R ================================================================================ Abstract: Proper motion stars have been identified from red IIIaF ESO Schmidt plates. This catalogue includes stars found in ESO Areas 207, 439, and 440 having mu >= 0.1 arcsec/yr. Finding charts for stars with mu >= 0.25 arcsec/yr are provided. Description: Tables 2, 3, and 4 contain proper motions and estimated red magnitudes for stars with proper motions larger than 0.1 arcsec/yr in ESO Areas 207, 439 and 440, respectively. Positions and proper motions were measured from red (IIaF) plates taken from the ESO Schmidt Camera at La Silla. Some of the plates are original and some are glass copies made for this project by the ESO photographic laboratory in Garching. The plate scale is 67.5 "/mm and their magnitude limit is m(R) ~ 20.5. A detailed description of the method used in obtaining proper motions can be found in Mendez et al. 1992 [AJ, 103, 911]. In the present catalogue the authors have included stars with mu <= 0.1 arcsec/yr. The estimated errors in proper motions and position angles are about 0.04 arcsec/yr and 10 deg, respectively.
