All efforts are being made to examine critically the data included in the catalog, specially when data from different authors are available. Part of the data are results of our own measurements, and a number of private communications are included. The data sources are always stated. This catalog has been used and cited in more than 300 papers. Like in the past more than one catalog were available in the literature, the present one does not intend to be the unique one, but it is certainly a major one.
