Journal Article · · Astrophys. J., Suppl. Ser.; (United States)
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1086/190767· OSTI ID:5527030

The second part of a list of ultraviolet excess objects is given. The objects have been selected from a Palomer Schmidt field centered on Kapteyn selected area 29. The population of objects belonging to color classes. 1A, 1, and 1B should be comprised primarily of quasars and white dwarfs and should be statistically complete to about B = 18.5 mag. One of the listed objects is a 5 mag optical variable; a journal of observations is given, derived from Harvard archival and contemporary Palomar Schmidt plates.
