Cape Photographic Catalog 1950.0 (CPC)

This catalog includes most of the stars from the 1900.0 Cordoba Zone Catalogues B and C in the zone -30 deg. -35 deg. at the equinox of 1925.0. Some of the fainter Cordoba stars have been omitted in the rather crowded regions in the Milky Way. The aim was to provide accurate places for an average of 9 to 10 stars per square degree as a reference for a rereduction of the AG positions. Most of the stars have visual magnitudes between 7 and 10. Positions and proper motions have been supplied from the General Catalogue for those stars that were too bright for accurate measurement on photographic plates. The positions are on the FK3 system for the equinox of 1950.0. The probable errors of the positions are nominally +/- 0.15" in both right ascension and declination. That of the proper motions should not exceed +/- 1.4"/century, or +/-14 in the units in which the proper motions expressed in arc are given in the catalog.
