Scientific paper

Photometry on the UBVRI Kron-Cousins system is presented for 102 stars covering the magnitude range 7 to 16 in the nine Harvard E-regions. These stars, at declination close to - 45°, are suitable for use as Southern Hemisphere standards in the photometry of faint stars and galaxies. The large magnitude range in most fields makes the sequences useful for the calibration of the Pickering-Racine wedge, a device widely used to extend photometric sequences to fainter limits on photographic plates. Positions accurate to a few arc seconds as well as identification charts are given for each star.
