The Tokyo PMC catalog 90-93: Catalog of positions of 6649 stars observed in 1990 through 1993 with Tokyo photoelectric meridian circle
The sixth annual catalog of the Tokyo Photoelectric Meridian Circle(PMC) is presented for 6649 stars which were observed at least two timesin January 1990 through March 1993. The mean positions of the starsobserved are given in the catalog at the corresponding mean epochs ofobservations of individual stars. The coordinates of the catalog arebased on the FK5 system, and referred to the equinox and equator ofJ2000.0. The mean local deviations of the observed positions from theFK5 catalog positions are constructed for the basic FK5 stars to comparewith those of the Tokyo PMC Catalog 89 and preliminary Hipparcos resultsof H30.
| The distribution of OB stars in the directions of the stellar associations AUR OB 1 and 2
Forty two OB stars have been observed with the space telescope Glazar at1640 A in an area of about 17 sq deg in the direction of the stellarassociations Aur OB 1 and 2. Twenty five of the observed stars of knownspectral type and with colorimetric data are assigned to four stargroups: a B association at a distance of 600 pc and three O associationsat distances of 1100, 2000 and 3000 pc respectively, designated Aur B0.6, Aur OB 1.1, Aur OB 2.0, and Aur OB 3.0. Fourteen stars of unknownspectral type should be OB or at least early-A-type stars, since theirimages were obtained on photographs taken with Glazar. The latestpossible spectral types of these stars and also of stars for which thespectral types are known only roughly are determined. There is a more orless uniform dust cloud in front of the dense parts of the three distantassociations, which introduces an extinction of about 3.5 mag at 1640 A.
