UBVR CCD survey of the Magellanic clouds

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present photometry and a preliminary interpretation of a UBVR survey of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, which covers 14.5 deg^2^ and 7.2deg^2^, respectively.

Description

This study is aimed at obtaining well-calibrated data on the brighter, massive stars, complementing recent, deeper CCD surveys. Our catalog contains 179,655 LMC and 84,995 SMC stars brighter than V~18.0, and is photometrically complete to U~B~V~15.7 and R~15.2, although stars in crowded regions are selectively missed.

We compare our photometry to that of others, and describe the need for gravity-dependent corrections to our CCD U-band photometry. We provide a preliminary cross-reference between our catalog stars and the stars with existing spectroscopy.
