brightstar | R Documentation |
Dataset that contains the data analyzed in Mizera and Koenker (2009, Section 5). The sample consists of measurements of radial and rotational velocities for the stars from the Bright Star Catalog, see Hoffleit and Warren (1991).
data(brightstar)
A data frame with 9092 rows on the following 2 variables.
nr
Location of measurements.
rad
Measurements of radial velocities.
rot
Measurements of rotational velocities.
