Note : this is the description file of the original catalog. This HTML page corresponds well to the original description, but some minor changes in the format may have been introduced in the FITS output files in order to allow for arithmetic operations on quantities such as coordinates and times. h:m:s and d:m:s units are normally converted into degrees, and YYYY-MM-DD into julian days.
Similarly, some slight changes may have been introduced in the units; the value given in the HTML files supersedes the value indicated in the ReadMe file for this catalogue.

Abstract:
    We present photometry and a preliminary interpretation of a UBVR
    survey of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, which covers 14.5
    deg2 and 7.2deg2, respectively. 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.

Note (1): Del(B-V) = (B-V) - (B-V)cut, where (B-V)cut is the expected dividing line between RSGs and foreground stars.
