u(bj)r & BV photometry of blue HB stars
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
This is the second in a series of papers presenting a new calculation of the mass of the Galaxy based on radial velocities and distances for a sample of faint 16<B<21.3 field blue horizontal-branch (BHB) stars.
Description
We present accurate BV CCD photometry and spectra for 142 candidate A-type stars selected from ubjr photometry of UK Schmidt telescope plates in six high-Galactic-latitude fields. Classification of these candidates produces a sample of 60 BHB stars at distances of 11-52kpc from the Sun (mean 28kpc), with heliocentric line-of-sight velocities accurate to 15km/s, and distance errors <10 per cent.
We provide a summary table listing coordinates and velocities of these stars.
