INTRODUCTION
The ADC staff is once again preparing for an exhibit booth at the Winter AAS
meeting. This year's meeting is in San Antonio, Texas. If you are planning on
being there, please stop by Booth #4, the Astrophysics Data Facility booth, and
meet some of the ADC staffers. We will be demonstrating our Internet services
and distributing our new CD-ROM collection of astronomical catalogs. There is
a $10 fee for each disc, which is waived for bona fide NASA-funded researchers.
See Gail Schneider's article below for more details on the new CD-ROMs.
If you won't be at the AAS meeting, but would like to order a CD, read Gail's
article for ordering information.

!!! NEW CD-ROM VOLUME NOW AVAILABLE !!!
Selected Astronomical Catalogs, Volume 2
Gail L. Schneider (Hughes STX)
The ADC would like to announce the availability of the Selected Astronomical
Catalogs, Volume 2 CD-ROM. The catalogs contained on this CD-ROM cover a
variety of subjects and were selected because they are large or frequently
requested. For example, this CD-ROM contains the large Durchmusterung catalogs
that did not fit on Volume 1 as well as some other large catalogs like the
Hipparcos and Tycho catalogs. There are two versions of this CD-ROM, one
in ASCII (Volume 2, No. 1) and one in FITS (Volume 2, No. 2).
The documentation of the catalogs follows the standard adopted by the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)/ADC and the Centre de Donnees
astronomiques de Strasbourg (CDS) in France. For each catalog a standard
documentation file called "ReadMe" was created. By using this ReadMe file as
input and software from the CDS (anafile), each catalog was checked for the
proper data format, units, allowed data ranges, and correct sorting of the
data as specified in the ReadMe. During the verification process errors that
were found were corrected in both the data and the documentation. Some catalog
data files were reformatted to enable their description in the byte-by-byte
tables in the standard ReadMe documentation. This standard format was used with
another CDS program (tofits) to convert the data, originally in flat ASCII, to
the FITS format. The body of the ReadMe file is incorporated in the
FITS primary and table extension headers.
Each disk has a simple layout with, at the highest level, separate directories
for the catalogs, software, and additional documentation. Each CD-ROM is
formatted according to the ISO 9660 standard, and the file names have been
restricted to eight characters with a three-character extension. A hyperlinked
HTML version of the CD-ROM's booklet is included on the discs. Users may find this a
handy tool for exploring the disc's contents.
Included in each CD-ROM are software tools useful for browsing
and/or extracting data from the catalogs. The same five software packages
are included on both the ASCII version (Volume 2, No. 1) and the FITS version
(Volume 2, No. 2) of this CD-ROM. BBEdit Lite and Browser are for the
Macintosh. FIND, Aurora, and the FITS Table Browser for IBM PC and compatibles
with the DOS operating system. The FITS Table Browser will also work on some
UNIX systems. They allow the user to edit large files, do catalog specific
work, or access FITS files.
Please note that both freeware and shareware are on the disks. The user is
obliged to comply with the shareware agreement outlined in the documentation
accompanying the software. This applies to the Aurora and Browser shareware.
BBEdit Lite is freeware, as explained in the documentation accompanying it.
FIND and FTB are freeware and are distributed "as-is" with no guarantee of
any kind.

using VISA, Mastercard, American Express, check, or money order payable to
HUGHES STX CORPORATION in U.S. DOLLARS on a U.S. BANK. If you wish to pay by
credit card please fax the NSSDC Request Coordination Office at (301) 286-1635,
please insure that your name and fax number is clearly identified on the fax.
If you wish to pay by check or money order please mail your request to the
NSSDC Request Coordination Office (see For Assistance or Information). The
NSSDC director has waived charges to NASA-funded researchers when the data will
be used for NASA-funded research. If you are a NASA-funded researcher please
provide the NSSDC Request Coordination Office with your NASA contract number
when you place your order. The NSSDC also maintains a World Wide Web version
of the NSSDC CD-ROM Catalog that lists and describes all of the CD-ROMs the
NSSDC distributes at URL http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/cd-rom/cd-rom.html
The ADC will be selling the CD-ROMs at the GSFC Astrophysics Data Facility
exhibit booth #4 during the 187th meeting of the AAS, to be held January 14-18
in San Antonio, Texas. We will only accept cash, checks or money orders for
the meeting sales. We will be demonstrating the CD-ROMs along with our
on-line services. For more information about the ADC's current activities,

Special Prefixes in the Format Tables
Nancy G. Roman (Hughes STX)
There are frequently symbols at the beginning of an explanation in the format
tables of the standard documentation that accompany most catalog and journal
files. These are necessary for confirming that the data agree with expectations.
However, they can also be useful to the catalog user. They have the following
meanings:
Numbers within square brackets, [ ], indicate the range of possible
values. They may be individual characters or a range of characters or
numbers (for example, [ ?] or [A-Z, 3- 9]). For a numeric column, the
range can be between reversed square brackets. For example, ]350,650[
means that the range is 351-649. That is. the square brackets serve as
greater than and less than signs. The ends of the range are excluded.
For data that are read with a numerical format (I, F, D, or E), a
question mark, ?, indicates that the record may be blank in that column.
The symbol ?=x, where x represents one or more numbers, indicates that
the value x instead of a blank is used if the data are missing. !
indicates that a null value is forbidden. It is used for alphanumeric
data (A format) since, normally, blank entries are allowed for
alphanumeric values.
An asterisk, *, indicates that there is a more extensive note about that
field. Notes can also be denoted by numbers in parentheses at the end of
the explanation (e. g., (2)).
Less frequently used are symbols that denote that the values are
strictly increasing, +, not decreasing, +=, strictly decreasing, -, or
not increasing, -=.
