WOOLLEY ivo://nasa.heasarc/woolley NASA/GSFC HEASARC Woolley, Epps, Penston, Pocock 2026-04-03 NASA/GSFC HEASARC help desk heasarc-vo at athena.gsfc.nasa.gov Star This catalog was constructed at the Royal Greenwich Observatory in order to enlarge the Gliese (1957, Mitt. Astron. Rechen-Inst., Ser. A, No. 8) compilation. It contains data on stars nearer than 25 pc that were not included in that version of Gliese&#39;s catalog, plus some additional information that had been published after 1957 on stars which were present in the 1957 version of the Gliese catalog. The electronic version contains essentially all information given in Table Ia of the published Woolley catalog, plus positional data, and most cross references to other catalogs given in Table IIa. The notes flags in Table Ia are not included because the notes are not machine-readable. Omitted from Table IIa are the finding-chart indicators (Lowell G numbers or notes references) and miscellaneous cross identifications to other names and catalog identifiers. Tables Ib and IIb, containing 21 systems originally included in Gliese&#39;s (1957) catalog but for which revised parallaxes have placed them farther than 25 pc are not included in the electronic version. Data in the electronic version include the Gliese number (newly added stars by Woolley have numbers beginning with 9001, but new parallaxes have removed 9419 and added 9849 and 9850 from the &lt; 25 parsecs sample), component identifications for multiple systems, parallaxes, annual proper motions, radial velocities, (U,V,W) space velocities, box orbit parameters (omega, e, i), spectral types, UBV data, absolute visual magnitudes, positions, GCTP (General Catalogue of Trigonometric Stellar Parallaxes) and its Supplement (Jenkins 1952, 1963) names, HD, DM, GCRV (General Catalogue of Stellar Radial Velocities, Publ. Carnegie Inst., Washington, No. 601, Wilson 1953) and other catalog identifiers, BS (= HR) (Hoffleit 1964) numbers, and remarks codes for spectroscopic binaries (SB), doubles, variables, etc. Note that there is an entry in this catalog for the Sun, for which many fields, such as RA and Dec, have not been populated. This table was recreated by the HEASARC in December 2002 based on the 21-Jul-1997 version of the &lt;a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/V/32A"&gt;CDS Catalog V/32A&lt;/a&gt;.
