Scientific paper

The catalog, giving sources of emission in the 2.2-micrometer region for more than 5000 stars, represents a systematic survey of the Northern Hemisphere for stars brighter than third magnitude. The survey was carried out with a telescope at Mount Wilson, California, having a 62-inch diameter and an f/l aluminized epoxy mirror mounted equatorially. Radiation at an effective wavelength of 2.2 micrometers was detected by a lead sulfide photoconductive cell cooled by liquid nitrogen. In addition to the 2.2-micrometer detector array, radiation at an effective wavelength of 0.84 micrometers was detected by a simple silicon photovoltaic cell. The catalog includes right ascension and declination (B1950.0), K and I magnitudes, number of measurements, V magnitude, spectral types, cross identifications to the numbering systems of the General Catalogue, the Durchmusterung catalogs, the Bright Star Catalogue, and star names.
