1087B I/87B LHS Catalogue, 2nd Edition W J Luyten University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, September ??? ??? 1979 1979 I/98 : NLTT Catalogue (proper motion exceeding 0.2" annually) Proper motions The catalogue gathers stars with large proper motions, the large majority coming out of the Bruce Proper Motion Survey (W.J. Luyten). 804 fields in the Palomar Survey have been hand-blinked or processed by an automated blink-machine; 160 low galactic latitude fields could not be handled. There are therefore many less stars with high proper motion south of -33 degrees (limit of the Palomar Survey) compared to the Northern hemisphere. Stars with proper motions larger than 2arcsec/yr are numbered 1 to 100; stars with proper motions between 1 and 2arcsec/yr are numbered 101 to 1000 ; numbers 1001 through 5000 are assigned to stars with proper motions between 0.5 and 1arcsec/yr. The stars which appear to have motions between 0.480 and 0.499arcsec/yr have been assigned numbers larger than 5000. Numbers larger than 6000 refer to Appendix II of the printed publication, containing stars for which at one time or another a value larger than 0.49arcsec/yr was published; these numbers are not listed in the printed version of the catalogue. All proper motions have been reduced to the Palomar-Bruce system. The catalogue supersedes the "Catalogue of Stars with Motions exceeding 0.5" annually" (LFT) published in 1955 (CDS ref. <I/54>)
