Showing UCAC2.0 proper motions
Ed Wiley Aug 21, 2006
Hi Bill:
I am finding Guide 8 fantastic for my double star research. One use is
a quick check to see if a pair is a candidate for being a CPM (common
proper motion) pair. The proper motions vectors seem to work fine for
the Tycho catalogue entries, but I have not been able to show proper
motion vectors for downloaded UCAC2.0 stars. Can I do so? Did I miss
something?
ANother thought: I have the UCAC2.0 on the harddrive. Proper motions
are not shown correctly, probably due to formatting problems on my
end. Perhaps this is the way to go?
Thanks, Ed Wiley
