Resulting from the cooperation between Beijing, San Juan and La Plata
Astronomical Observatories, the photoelectric astrolabe Mark II(PAII) of the
Beijing Astronomical Observatory was moved and installed at the San Juan
Observatory, Argentina in January, 1992 for observations of stars
in the southern hemisphere. Using the data observed with the
instrument from Feb. 23 1992 to Mar. 11, 2000 over 2382 days, the
Third San Juan photoelectric astrolabe catalogue
has been compiled from double transits at both the eastern
and western passages. There are 6762 stars in this catalogue, including 6156
Hipparcos stars (in which there are 69 radio stars), 8 FK5 stars, 47 SRS stars,
551 CAMC4 stars. The mean precisions are ±3.0 ms and ±
in
right ascension and declination, respectively. The magnitudes of stars are
from 1.0 to 11.5. The declinations are from -3° to -60°.
The mean epoch is 1996.3. Systematic corrections of (CPASJ3-Hipp) are given.
