Designat. Name RA (2000.0) Dec Con mag z NotesDesignations are formed from 1950.0 coordinates, Names are variable star names or entries from various catalogs (without number, the catalog lists the coordinates in column 1 as designation): RA/Dec coordinates for 2000.0, Con constellations, mag visual magnitudes (unless marked "p" for photographic) with "v" indicating variability, z redshift, Notes gives "BL" for BL Lacertaes and peak brightness (all but Mrk 421 from Isles).
