[vsnet-id 81] More Hoffmeister variables identified

[bas@lowell.Lowell.Edu (Brian Skiff)]

     I have completed work on identifications for the Hoffmeister survey
published in 1964 AN 288,49, totalling some 520 variables.  The two crowded
fields surrounding gamma Aql and gamma Sge were tough work, yet all but three
of the stars were recovered.  Rather than send these two fields out, I have
simply copied the complete list to the Lowell ftp area:

http://ftp.lowell.edu/pub/bas/starcats/hoff3.lis

I will prepare this and the two previous lists for the IBVS in the coming few
days.
     To judge from the SIMBAD bibliographic listings, few of the variables 
have any study beyond the follow-up work by Gessner (e.g. Mitt. Verand. Sterne,
10, 35 (1983)).  Perhaps this can be rectified now that we know where they are!
