This list contains all stars in the Revised AFGL Catalog with 4.2 micron magnitudes of -1.0 or brighter. In addition to their scientific merit, these stars are useful when setting up high resolution spectrometers to operate in the L and M bands. Name, HD, and HIP associations are from Simbad, when available. Simbad does not identify RAFGL 164, 401, 428, 654, 713, 851, 4478, 922, 1007, 1183, 1446, 4149, 4150, 4181, 4197, 1750, 2039, 5461, 2278, 2285, and 2456, but each has a bright, nearby counterpart listed in Gezari (1997). Simbad associates AFGL 5461 with HD 194114, but HD 167618 (Eta Sgr) seems more likely. RA, Dec, muRA, muDec, Plx, and V are preferentially from the Hipparcos catalog. Otherwise, Simbad coordinates are precessed to the Hipparcos epoch and equinox (1991.25), though the coordinate epoch is unknown in a few cases. The typical uncertainty for Hipparcos proper motions and parallaxes is about 1 milliarcsec (mas), so ignore the insignificant digit after the decimal point. Spectral types are preferentially from BSC, Simbad (MK field), Hipparcos, and then Simbad again (unattributed value given in header). Radial Velocities are preferentially from the Bright Star Catalog, GCRV (via Simbad), and then other Simbad data. Several sources are known radial velocity variables. R and I magnitudes are averages of all JP11 data from Simbad, when available. J, H, K, L, L', and M data are averages of Gezari (1997) catalog data, when available. The RAFGL 4.2 micron flux is also from Gezari (1997). When many measurements are available for a given IR band, only those matching the nominal wavelength are used, except that all measurements in the range 4.4-4.5 microns were used for the L band, and 4.9 micron points were used if there were no 4.8 micron points. The 4.2 flux for AFGL 4197 was apportioned 70/30 between Alp1 Cen and Alp2 Cen, based on their L and M band magnitudes. Many of the sources are photometrically variable, especially at bluer wavelengths. Fewer digits in a magnitude may imply variability, rather than low measurement precision. In the case of pulsating variables, there are still too many significant figures in the tabulated magnitudes. Please send corrections to jvalenti@noao.edu.
