A Catalogue of 7127 Stars in the Northern Hemisphere with Proper Motions Exceeding 0.2 seconds Annually

Abstract

The present catalogue gives data for 7127 stars in the northern hemisphere which appear to possess proper motions larger than 0.2 seconds annually. As such it constitutes the companion volume to the similar catalogue for the southern hemisphere published in 1957. As before, the motions have been checked on the plates of the Bruce Proper Motion Survey wherever possible but this survey covers only about 30 percent of the northern hemisphere. All data available before 1 January 1961 have been included.
