Abstract

ABSTRACTA large set of deep, near‐IR, objective‐prism plates taken along the southern Galactic plane was searched for cool supergiants and carbon stars. Accurate coordinates and charts for 759 carbon stars in two Galactic longitude sectors within 7.°5 of the plane, 248°<l<288° and 320°<l<341°, are given, including 289 stars not previously published. Many of the new and known stars are found in the IRAS, DENIS, and 2MASS point‐source catalogs. The 2MASS colors and the longitude distribution of cool carbon stars are discussed briefly.
