Durchmusterungen

Scientific paper

The Bonner Durchmusterung catalogs (Argelander 1859-62, Kuestner 1903), declination zones +89deg. to -01deg., contain supplemental stars having lower case letter designations following the BD numbers after which they have been inserted. Many problems of identification have arisen over the years because the supplemental stars have been included in certain machine-readable catalogs without their letter designations, thus making it impossible for a computer to distinguish between a BD star and its insert(s). The need for a machine-readable version of the supplemental stars arose in connection with identifying stars in other catalogs in order to add the letter designations to them. The initial catalog of supplemental stars was prepared from the second edition of the BD (Kuestner 1903), but proofreading and checking were accomplished by using the reprinted edition (Bonn Universitaets Sternwarte 1968) which incorporated all errata known at that time. In that way, it was possible to simultaneously derive tables of supplemental stars added, deleted, or modified for the reprinted edition. (1 data file).
