Up: New proper-motion stars

3. Results

This survey found 492 stars with proper motions larger than 0.15 arcsec/year wich are not listed in southern proper motion catalogues. Four stars have proper motions larger than 0.5 arcsec/year, in magnitude range between 15.5 and 17.5, close to the photographic magnitude of the Bruce Proper Motion Survey.

Our results are presented in Table 2 (click here), where the content of the columns is as follows:
Column 1: Our list number.
Column 2: Location number where the first two or three digits refer to the area number and the other digits refer to the star number in the area.
Column 3: Estimated photographic magnitudes.
Columns 4 and 5: Positions for B1950.0.
Columns 6 and 7: Positions for J2000.0.
Column 8: Annual proper motions referred to equinox J2000.0.
Column 9: Errors.
Column 10: Position angles referred also to equinox J2000.0.
Column 11: Remarks.

Figure 2 shows the finder charts, where North is up and the East is on the left.
