Scientific paper

The "Astrographic Catalogue" (or "Carte de Ciel") is a catalogue of star positions and magnitudes, determined on the photographic plates taken by the normal astrographs which are installed in observatories of various latitudes, as a world-wide astronomical project (see Eichhorn, 1974, p279). The catalogue is divided into 22 declination zones, each of which is assigned to each observatory, e.g., a zone from +18 to +24 degrees is to Paris observatory. A part of this catalogue, i.e., zones from -02 to +31 degrees, was once recompiled by using AGK2/3 catalogue as the reference (Lacroute 1981), and is already archived in CDS as catalogues I/21 and 22. The present catalogue gives the result of recalculation of the same zones, by using AGK3 catalogue (printed Hamburg version) as the reference. Note that since the content of stars per plate has not been checked, there may be some entries missing. The participated observatories and the archived files are as follows: ------------------------------------------------------ declination zone observatory file ------------------------------------------------------ -02 to +04 Algiers f1 +05 to +10 Toulouse f2 +11 to +17 Bordeaux f3 +18 to +24 Paris f4 +25 to +31 Oxford I f5 ------------------------------------------------------ Note that +11 degree zone is also observed by Toulouse, and the results are included in the file f2 . (5 data files).
