Near-IR stellar spectra from 1.428 to 2.5 um

The catalog contains near-IR spectra of 84 stars, obtained with the Fourier Transform Spectrograph at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope on Mauna Kea, Hawaii. The spectra cover the H and K atmospheric windows, i.e. wavelengths from 1.43 to 2.5 microns, with a typical resolving power of 500.

The spectra have all been reduced again in 1996. The general procedure was as described in the original article, except that the intrinsic energy distributions of the stars used as references were assumed to be well represented by the models of Kurucz, 1993. Making extensive use of the Simbad data base, we have searched the literature on each of these stars, looking for effective temperature and extinction determinations.
