| | Star catalogue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Catalogue astrographique (Astrographic Catalogue) was part of the international Carte du Ciel programme designed to photograph and measure the positions of all stars brighter than magnitude 11.0. | | | An example of a star which is often referred to by one of these unofficial GJ numbers is GJ 3021. | | | USNO-B1.0 is an all-sky catalog created by researchers at the U.S. Naval Observatory that presents positions, proper motions, magnitudes in various optical passbands, and star/galaxy estimators for 1,042,618,261 objects derived from 3,643,201,733 separate observations. |

| | These spectra, along with their two-dimensional MK classifications listed in the Michigan Henry Draper Catalogue, were used to develop supervised neural network classifiers. | | | We show that neural networks can give accurate spectral type classifications (sigma_68 = 0.82 subtypes, sigma_rms = 1.09 subtypes) across the full range of spectral types present in the data set (B2--M7). | | | The data set for this project consists of a set of over 5000 optical (3800--5200 AA) spectra obtained from objective prism plates from the Michigan Spectral Survey. |

| | Nevertheless, Fleming developed a relatively simple classification scheme, with 22 different classes, and in 1890 published the classifications for 10,000 stars as the Draper Catalogue of Stellar Spectra. | | | Fleming was soon promoted to work directly with the spectral classification project, although she was paid half of what the men were paid. | | | Because it was the goal of this project to classify a sufficient number of stars so that it would be years before anyone felt the need to repeat such an undertaking, it was Pickering's goal to classify at least 100,000 stars for the Henry Draper (HD) Catalogue. |

| | The modern system of classification originated from a series of projects begun around 1886, at the Harvard College Observatory, directed by Edward Pickering. | | | Stars were categorised into a number of classes, distinguished by the strength of the spectral lines of different elements, beginning with hydrogen, and were originally assigned letters which ran in order. | | | The work was funded from the estate of the American astronomer Henry Draper, and performed by a corps of women (and the commonly held belief is that women were chosen because they would work for less pay than men). |
