cds-question@unistra.frgiant-starsm-starsphotometryNear-infrared small-dispersion spectra obtained with a grism at the prime focus of CTIO's 4-m telescope have been used to survey and classify late-type red giants found in a circular area with a diameter of 24.4 arcmin which is contained within Baade's Window. The survey is complete to a distance that extends past the galactic nuclear bulge. The presented stars therefore constitute a unique complete sample of the red giant population of the nuclear bulge. A total of 306 red giants, including all giants of type M6 or later, are presented with a list of their coordinates, spectral classes, and apparent I magnitudes. A finding chart is also given. No C or S stars were found even though they should have been detected if they exist. Evidence is presented of uneven foreground interstellar obscuration in Baade's Window.1984AJ.....89..636Bhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/89/636CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toII/246 : 2MASS All-Sky Catalog of Point Sources (Cutri+ 2003)V/114 : MSX6C Infrared Point Source Catalog (Egan+ 2003)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/89/636https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/89/636http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/89/636https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/89/636https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/89/636http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/89/636GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/AJ/89/636/table1 (Late M giants)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/89/636/table1?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/89/636/table1?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/89/636/table1?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true270.6895417-30.08691670.0055555555555555566/28778https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/AJ/89/636?format=asciiOpticaldefaultJ/AJ/89/636/table1Late M giantsRemRemarksmeta.notecharrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
