Stellar Velocities in the Carina, Fornax, Sculptor and Sextans dSph Galaxies: Data from the Magellan/MMFS Survey

Matthew G. Walker, Mario Mateo and Edward W. Olszewski

Accepted for publication in the Astronomical Journal.

The following files contain complete electronic data Tables 2-5 from the paper. These tables contain one line per observation, so stars with repeat observations are listed on multiple lines. Headers explain columns and format.

     Download Carina primary data (Table2 from paper).
     Download Fornax primary data (Table3 from paper).
     Download Sculptor primary data (Table4 from paper).
     Download Sextans primary data (Table5 from paper).


The following files contain tables that do not appear in the paper, but which may be convenient for analysis. These tables contain only one line per star. For stars with repeat observations, the listed values are weighted means. Headers explain columns and format.

     Download merged Carina data.
     Download merged Fornax data.
     Download merged Sculptor data.
     Download merged Sextans data.

The full paper can be accessed here.

These data can also be accessed from Matt Walker's web site in Cambridge (this may also be faster for European downloads).
