SAO and Supplementary Data

This SAO catalogue (Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory Catalogue of 258,997 stars, 1966; see catalog ), connected to the CSI (Catalogue of Stellar Identifications, see Ochsenbein et al. 1981), enables researchers to retrieve reliable astrophysical data for about 20,000 stars. This includes SAO identifications, CSI identifications, equatorial coordinates (B1950), Galactic coordinates, proper motions, photometric data, spectral classifications, radial velocity, etc. The SAO/HD cross index for about 188,000 stars allows users to find (or enter) the catalog with the HD number of the star. The notes contain detected errors, the value of the trigonometric parallax taken from the Jenkins' (1952, 1963) catalogues, the double star designation ADS or IDS, and the name of the star.
