Astrometry and photometry of UCAC4 double stars

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The newly completed Fourth USNO CCD Astrographic Catalog (UCAC4) has proven to be a rich source of double star astrometry and photometry.

Description

Following initial comparisons of UCAC4 results against those obtained by speckle interferometry, the UCAC4 catalog was matched against known double stars in the Washington Double Star Catalog in order to provide additional differential astrometry and photometry for these pairs. Matches to 58131 pairs yielded 61895 astrometric and 68935 photometric measurements.

Finally, a search for possible new common proper motion (CPM) pairs was made using new UCAC4 proper motion data; this resulted in 4755 new potential CPM doubles (and an additional 27718 astrometric and photometric measures from UCAC and other sources).
