... PUL2 catalog contains original absolute proper motions of 59646 stars in 149 fields with galaxies. ... Mean errors of relative proper motions in PUL2 catalog is 5.5 mas/year. ... The external mean error of one relative proper motion of a bright star of PUL2 catalog is 9 mas/year for both of coordinates. ... After issue of UCAC2 catalog, we decided to improve accuracy of proper motions, using Pul-3 coordinates (of 1950s) as the first epoch, and UCAC2 coordinates as the second epoch. ...

. A distribution list is very useful where a group of users need to communicate amongst themselves on a regular basis. Each list is given a name just like any other user. By addressing a message to the list name, the sender can be sure that everyone will receive a copy. You cannot set up a distribution list yourself. Ask your system administrator to set one up for you.
