Proper motions of faint ultraviolet-bright sources in the Sandage two-color survey of the galactic plane.

LANNING H.H. and LEPINE S.

Abstract (from CDS):

Proper motions with values ≥10 or ≤-10 mas/yr have been extracted from the USNO-B1.0 and Tycho-2 catalogs for all Lanning UV-bright sources identified in the Sandage Two-Color Survey of the Galactic Plane and presented in Papers I-VI. Of the 572 sources examined, we find at least 213 that exhibit a significantly large proper motion. Based on the location of the sources in a reduced proper motion diagram, we demonstrate that about two-thirds of the high proper motion sources are likely or very likely to be heretofore unidentified white dwarfs.
