SUMMARY. The catalog is an updated and revised version of Stephenson's Catalogue of Galactic Cool Carbon Stars (2nd edition).  It includes 6891 entries.  For each star the following information is given:  equatorial (2000.0) and galactic coordinates, blue, visual and infrared magnitudes, spectral classification, references, designations in the most significant catalogs and coordinate precision classes.  The main catalog is supplemented by remarks containing information for which there was no place in entries of the main part, as well as some occasional notes about the peculiarities of specific stars.

 

KEYWORDS - catalogs - stars: carbon, fundamental parameters.


 

 

 

 

 

1. INTRODUCTION

 

    Most types of carbon stars are easily recognizable on low resolution blue-green and photographic infrared spectra. Spectral surveys carried out with Schmidt telescopes were the main sources for the search and discovery of galactic carbon stars.  The total number of known carbon stars is sufficiently small to keep all of them in a single catalog. B.C. Stephenson of the Warner and Swasey Observatory has maintained a General Catalogue of Cool Carbon Stars for many years.  He has published its two paper editions, CCCS and CCGCS (Stephenson 1973,1989).

    At a business meeting of the Working Group on Peculiar Red Giants during IAU Symposium 177 on “The Carbon Star Phenomenon” (May 27-31, 1996) in Antalya, Turkey, it was reported that Dr.  Stephenson will no longer continue work on the catalog, although there is a need for its updating. A. Alksnis of the Radioastrophysical Observatory, Latvian Academy of Sciences, agreed to consider the possibility of assuming responsibility for updating the catalog (Wing 1997).  As a result, a group of astronomers at the Radioastrophysical Observatory of the Latvian Academy of Sciences, now the Astrophysical Observatory of the Institute of Astronomy, University of Latvia, agreed to undertake supplementing and updating of the General Catalogue of Cool Galactic Carbon Stars.

    The sources of data of new carbon stars and of new data of known objects of this class mainly were the papers published in journals or other astronomical publications.

    In comparison with the previous edition of the catalog, the identification criteria of carbon stars were widened. Carbon stars are recognized in the optical spectral region from the Swan bands of the C2 molecule, from the CN bands in the near-infrared and from the 11.2 mm band of SiC.  We have included also stars classified from the 3.1 mm band, and we have added carbon star candidates identified by the N. Epchtein group from the [12- 25] vs.  K-L two-color diagram (Guglielmo et al. 1998 and references therein).

    Since the appearance of the 2nd edition of the catalog, the results of the largest surveys of the galactic carbon stars have been based on objective-prism infrared spectra.

    Infrared objective-prism surveys of seven low-latitude southern fields between galactic longitudes 245° and 311° were completed using the Curtis Schmidt telescope at Cerro Tololo and of nine low-latitude northern fields between 57° and 136° using the Burrell Schmidt telescope of the Warner and Swasey Observatory at Kitt Peak.  These studies have led to 209 new discoveries of carbon stars, many of which were confirmed by slit spectra (Aaronson et al. 1989, 1990).

    Four degree prism infrared spectra of the Kiso 105 cm Schmidt telescope were used to search for cool carbon stars in several areas:  in a 240 square-degree area in Cygnus (near l = 85°), in a 240 square-degree area in the Serpens-Aquila-Scutum region (near l = 32°), in a 235 square-degree area in the Perseus-Camelopardalis region (near l = 145°), in a 230 square-degree area in the Monoceros region (near l = 206°), and in a 230 square degree area in the Vulpecula region (near l = 60°) (Maehara & Soyano 1988, 1990; Soyano & Maehara 1991, 1993, 1999).  As a result, 145 new carbon stars were discovered and many known carbon stars were confirmed.

    An unpublished list of southern carbon stars, identified by MacConnell (2000) on infrared plates taken with the Curtis Schmidt telescope of the University of Michigan at Cerro Tololo, added 169 new entries to the catalog and improved positions for 257 of the known carbon stars.

    Since 1989 red sensitized Kodak F-type plates of the First Byurakan Spectral Sky Survey (|b|> 30°, delta > -15°) obtained with the 1 meter Schmidt telescope of the Byurakan Observatory, Armenia, have been used to search for and classify faint late-type stars (Gigoyan et al. 1998 and references therein).  Thus 39 new carbon stars were added to the CCGCS, mostly at high galactic latitudes.

    The discovery of dwarf carbon stars, seven of them newly added to the Catalogue, has stimulated further search for and study of faint carbon stars at high galactic latitudes.

    A color-magnitude diagram based on direct blue and red UKST and POSS survey plates, used by Totten & Irwin (1998) to select faint candidate carbon stars at high galactic latitudes, and follow-up spectrophotometry on the 2.5 meter Isaac Newton Telescope, La Palma, resulted in 28 newly discovered faint high latitude carbon stars.

    Medium resolution slit spectra in the wavelength range 450--700 nm obtained with the ESO 3.6 meter telescope confirmed carbon star candidates discovered earlier in eight galactic bulge fields with the Canada-France-Hawaii 3.6 meter telescope (Azzopardi et al. 1991).  This resulted in 31 new entries in the Catalogue.

    We had to delete the entries Nos. 273, 293, 391, 651, 675, 1077, 1111, 1224, 1260, 5832 and 5920 from CCGCS (each of them actually doubles another entry) and to correct the positions of Nos. 434, 1191, 1259 and 5878, because RA(1950) and DEC(1950) for the stars BC 186 – BC 200 (Platais 1981) were included in CCGCS without reduction to the equinox of 1900.

    We have included in the catalog more than 200 infrared carbon star candidates identified through their location in the IRAS color [12-25] vs. near-IR color K-L diagram (Guglielmo et al. 1998 and references therein).  Their spectra are noted by lower case c, as it is used by these authors.

    The carbon stars represented in this catalog include mainly optically identified stars corresponding to the R, N or MK classification.  The R0-R3 types sometimes are called “warm carbon stars”.  In the infrared wavelength region we meet “infrared carbon stars”, “extreme-” or “dusty carbon stars”.  A dozen  “dwarf carbon stars” or “carbon dwarfs” are known.  Evidently, there is no need to call all these types as “cool carbon stars”; a shorter term “carbon stars” is good enough. Thus we can shorten the title of this catalog used in the second edition to the “General Catalogue of Galactic Carbon Stars” (CGCS).

    The present catalog includes many Population II carbon stars belonging to the CH type. More complete catalogs of CH and related stars were published by Bartkevičius & Đleivyté (1983), Đleivyté & Bartkevičius (1990) and Bartkevičius (1996).

    The positions of all carbon stars were compared with those in the electronic version of the General Catalogue of Variable Stars available at the Sternberg Astronomical Institute home page (http://www.sai.msu.ru) to identify carbon variable stars.  A difference up to 2.5 arcmin in both coordinates was used for the selection of possible variable carbon stars, which were then inspected closer individually to confirm or reject the identity.  More than a hundred new names of variable stars were included in the column “Designations”.

    For most of the stars, which are included in the 2nd edition of the Catalog no new data have been added, and the respective entries in the new edition of the Catalog (Table 1) remain unchanged. The only change is in the equinox of the equatorial coordinates:  they are now reduced to the equinox 2000.0.  For the new entries we tried to maintain the style of the 2nd edition.  Therefore we had to repeat the description of the catalog columns from the 2nd edition, modifying them accordingly.  Quotations from the 2nd edition are given in the quotation marks (<<.....>>).

 


 

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE CATALOG (TABLE 1): COLUMN HEADINGS

 

STAR DESIGNATION.  Star designation derived from right ascension (hhmm) and declination (±ddmm) of the star.

 

CGCS.  This is the number from the first column (No.) of Table 1 from the 2nd edition (CGCCS).  We have not introduced a new running number to avoid overcrowding of identifiers for an object.  For new entries the running numbers begin with No. 6001 and are given in the sequence of R.A.(2000).

 

RA(2000), DEC(2000). These are the equatorial coordinates, referred to the equinox and equator 2000.

    <<In case of multiple finding lists, the coordinates are averages from multiple sources, heavily weighted in favor of the most accurate, if any.  Where Ste is included among the designations, the star has almost invariably been measured for position at the Warner and Swasey Obs. on one or even more objective-prism plates, with a resulting precision of 1-2 arcseconds. The astrometric reduction procedure used by Stephenson is explained in  Publs. Warner and Swasey Obs.  Vol. 2, No. 4, Sec.  II.  More than 2000 stars of Table 1 have post CCCS  position determinations done at the Warner and Swasey Observatory.>>

    The coordinates are given to 0.1 sec in RA and 1 arcsec in DEC, notwithstanding the precision of the position of the object.  The estimated precision class of the coordinates is indicated  by precision in the last column.  For many stars of CGCCS the equatorial coordinates have been improved on the basis of new determinations, e.g., by Aaronson et al.  (1989, 1990), MacConnell (2000), Maehara & Soyano (1988, 1990), Soyano & Maehara (1991, 1993, 1999).

    For more than 300 carbon stars equatorial coordinates were taken from the Hipparcos Catalogue after approximation to the format of this catalog.  These stars can be recognized as bright stars with the highest precision class 0 in the last column of the Table.

 

    b, v, i. << These are, as available, blue, visual and infrared magnitudes. The infrared magnitudes are normally the sort defined by a Kodak N-type photographic plate exposed through a filter similar to the Schott RG8 or 695 filter.  Such infrared magnitudes are close to the system of Kron & Smith (1951), and have now been published for several thousand carbon stars.  For b, v and i alike, the magnitudes essentially all come from photographic plates; thousands of them are based only upon an average plate calibration used for an entire survey. Thus the magnitudes are almost never accurate to 0.1 mag, to which they are commonly given, and errors of over a whole magnitude should be common, even discounting variability.>>

    For some stars v magnitudes from Paupers et al.  (1993) are used.  For the newly added stars, especially for the infrared (or dusty) carbon stars, which are observed only in the infrared, column i gives red or near infrared magnitude in the shortest awailable wavelength  with corresponding notation: R, J, H, K, L.

 

    long, lat. <<This is galactic longitude and latitude, in the system currently in use.>> They are computed from RA(2000) and Dec(2000).

 

    Spectrum.  <<This column displays the earliest more reliable determinations of spectral type in the R/N notation.  Here also are classifications in the scheme of Morgan & Keenan (1941); this scheme is still a good compact description of the spectrum. Sources of quoted classifications are coded here in parentheses; most of these are listed in the explanation of the “Designations” column, which is devoted to finding lists. Below we list abbreviations for papers consisting mainly of re-observation of stars selected from finding lists.  We also include here the abbreviations HD and HDE which are occasionally cited under the “Spectrum” column.>> However, these abbreviations are omitted in the “Designations” column where a pure HD or HDE number is given. 

 

These abbreviations are as follows.

     Carbon star candidates in this column are marked by lower case c (Guglielmo et al. 1998 and references threin).

 

    Designations.  <<This gives the star's occurence in various finding lists, including unpublished ones.  Some CCCS stars repeated here are still called unpublished, which means only that I had no reference to a separate publication when the CCCS went to press.  For  some of those stars, the CCCS is the only place they have been published; for others, they have since appeared in separate lists by their discoverers.  In the latter case I have sometimes changed the discoverer designation to reflect separate subsequent publication, and sometimes not; in the great majority of cases, CCCS stars there called unpublished have since been confirmed in other surveys.

    There are finding lists with no special concentration on carbon stars. These are the Bright Star Catalog number, cited, as in all editions of the Bright Star Catalog, as an HR number (and usually put at the head of the list); HD or HDE numbers (listed as a number without other characters); BD or CD numbers in a notation close to the usual one; and the GCVS designation.  The intent was to give CD numbers only if the CD magnitude is 9.5 or brighter.  Any CPD (Cape Photographic Durchmusterung) nos. in Table 1 are inadvertent unless spelled out as such, a fact due to the circumstance that carbon stars are red stars and the CD is red-biased, not only relative to the CPD but even, though this does not appear to be widely known, relative to the BD.

    Other finding lists;  an explanation for the coding of these follows. The largest unpublished ones are by Stephenson (Ste), a combination of  stars now published in the CCCS and infrared survey products appearing in the present catalog; Sanduleak (Sndlk), whose entries are almost exclusively confined to CCCS stars; Victor Blanco (VB); and MacConnell (MacCon).  Although there are several published MacConnell lists cited here, some of the “MacCons” may have since become separately published; but see also the special note under MacCon in the table to follow.

    Coding:  Whenever a number appears separated from the initial part of the designation by a blank space, the number is a published one assigned by the corresponding discoverer, hyphens if any separating table numbers from numbers within tables.  Numbers following alphabetic abbreviations without a blank space represent the year of publication where this was for some reason helpful to me (generally, where the same author has produced more than one paper).  So W58 1 means star No. 1 in a table of carbon stars in Westerlund (1958).>>

L. E. Krumenaker, unpublished. At Warner and Swasey we had by 1972 taken duplicate objective-prism plates of the northern Milky Way for about half of the fields surveyed by Hamburg in the Hamburg-Cleveland survey for luminous stars in the Northern Milky Way. Although carbon stars were identified and measured for position by the Hamburg  workers, and eventually published (Hardorp et al. 1972), the Hamburg limiting magnitude for carbon stars was not very faint (cf. Hardorp et al. 1972). Hence Krumenaker searched for carbon stars on the new Case material already mentioned. On the other hand, the mag. limit for R/N classification is already fairly uniform between Hamburg and Cleveland (Stephenson 1989).

    <<Except for the occurrence of the CCCS numbers, the ordering of the carbon star-finding lists under “designations” in Table 1 is generally the order in which I have become aware of them.  The major exception is myself (Ste), whom I have usually listed last regardless of history. The overwhelming majority of these separately-found identifications for the same carbon star are, to the best of my knowledge - and certainly for my own surveys - completely independent rediscoveries.>>

 

    n.  <<Four symbols were introduced in the CCCS and are retained here.  (1) An asterisk indicates that Table 1 equates two or more data in literal contradiction to one or more papers cited; for example, a much later paper may be reporting a new carbon star already so identified in a much earlier paper, which implies that perhaps there are two carbon stars in the area.  This was a natural flag to use in the CCCS, where carbon stars were mainly reported in a few large and well-known surveys.  It is no longer natural now, where the main pre-publication comparison has been with the CCCS, and there have meanwhile been many relatively short lists.  Thus, I have added few if any new asterisks.  Finally, a single asterisk meant that my fusing of two or more reports was based on coordinates alone, without any plate re-examination.  In fact, many or most of these cases have now been routinely re-examined through later, systematic, surveys; but I have retained the asterisk to show the historical order.  (2) A double asterisk means the same as a single one, except that I have specially re-examined plates with the identification problem in mind.  As in (1),  many of these have been further checked routinely by later, systematic surveys, where the finding of only one star allows the strong presumption that only one carbon star is involved.  There are few or no new double asterisks in the present edition.  (3) A plus sign signals a GCVS identification made by me by comparing an objective prism plate with a published identification chart.  These, too, are mostly holdovers from the CCCS, because the host of more accurate coordinates for carbon stars in the present edition usually restricts any challenge to identifying a carbon star with a GCVS cool-giant variability type to the question (at least on deep plates):  is there any other banded spectrum near the carbon star?  (4) An R signals further remarks at the end of Table 1.>>

    The object of the remarks is twofold.  First, remarks are intended as an extension to the entries “Designations” and “Spectrum” of the catalog comprising matter for which there was no place in the Table.  Second, remarks contain information about considerable disagreement in the position of a star determined by different authors or cases when there is some doubt if the data refer to the same star.  We repeat Stephenson's remarks, although in a shortened form, in which he confirms discoveries or points to certain spectral and photometric peculiarities (outstanding spectral lines and bands, very red color etc.).  Also we indicate the cases when a carbon star lies in the sky within boundaries of some star clusters and note conclusions about the membership, if possible.  Also the stars with such distinguishing features as circumstellar silicate envelopes, detached gas and dust shells, maser emission, binarity and bipolar molecular outflows are marked.

 

P.      Estimated precision class of the equatorial coordinates of the star:  0-1 for  ±0.1 arcsec, 2 for ±1 arcsec and 3 for ±0.1 arcmin.  Values of the precision class have been estimated by comparing coordinates of the stars determined by different authors. The highest precision class 0 was assigned only to the positions determined by Hipparcos, by MacConnell (2000) and for dwarf carbon stars.

 


 

3. REJECTED STARS

 

    Table 2 contains 21 stars that have been declared as carbon or possible carbon stars but this classification was rejected in other publications. This table is a supplement to Table 2 in the 2nd edition of the Catalogue.  The first five columns coincide with those in the Catalogue (Table 1), the 6th column gives the reference to the publication (with abbreviations of Section 2), the designation and the carbon spectral type, the 7th column gives the same for the publications in which this classification has been rejected.
