[vsnet-chat 420] VS charts based on Hipparcos and Tycho catalogues

[Taichi Kato <tkato>]

Dear Colleagues,

    We have redrawn charts for bright variable stars using the recently
released Hipparcos and Tycho catalogues (Hipparcos Project Home Page:
http://astro.estec.esa.nl/SA-general/Projects/Hipparcos/hipparcos.html)

    Individual GIF files can be retrieved from the URL

    http://ftp.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp/pub/vsnet/charts/HIPGIF/

    Search e.g. sctr.gif for R Sct.

    Other potentially useful URLs:

    http://ftp.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp/pub/vsnet/charts/HIPGIF/hipgif.tar.gz
    http://ftp.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp/pub/vsnet/charts/HIPGIF/hipgif.lzh
    (compressed files)

    The GIF files are also linked individually from the "Index to Variable
Stars" page at http://vsnet.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp/vsnet/gcvs/index.html

    Hope they might be useful.

Regards,
Taichi Kato
