CTIO Upper-Scorpius OB Association Survey

(UScoCTIO)
(survey of low-mass stars and brown dwarfs)

I use the phrase CTIO Upper-Scorpius OB Association Survey for an survey carried out in 1998 to 1999 observing the Upper-Scorpius OB Association (one of the three subgroups of the Scorpius-Centaurus Association), looking for low mass stars and brown dwarfs, using equipment at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO) and Lick Observatory.
