The second catalogue of the LTPV programme contains photometric data obtained during the period October 1986 - September 1990. Full description can be found in ESO reports SP 8 and 12. The data presented here have been upgraded since the printing of catalogue ESO SR 12; a major change is the use of a quite different standard, namely the ESO SAT (Stroemgren Automatic Telescope) instrumental system has been used as standard. The instrumental systems 6 and 8 can be obtained by applying the following color matrices (see ESO SR 12, page 4, Eq. (3)), inverted (b-y , y , m1 , c1): SYSTEM 6 1.0518 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0094 1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 -0.1238 0.0000 1.1206 0.0000 0.0426 0.0000 0.0000 1.0352 SYSTEM 8 1.0476 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0384 1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 -0.0877 0.0000 1.0487 0.0000 -0.2657 0.0000 0.0000 0.9732 It also very easy to go back to the same standard as in ESO SR 8 by applying the transformations given in Table 3 of ESO SR 12 (page 3). Note that the faint star C7060 is not identified so far. The mean values of the r.m.s. deviations of the differential measurements of comparison stars are around (from Table 5 of paper) ------------------------------------ System y b-y m1 c1 ------------------------------------ 6 0.0069 0.0058 0.0122 0.0129 7 0.0064 0.0030 0.0039 0.0067 8 0.0068 0.0061 0.0110 0.0097 ------------------------------------
