Some studies on First Byurakan Survey late-type stars

Markarian survey (or the First Byurakan Survey, FBS), was the first systematic survey of the extragalactic sky. This objective-prism survey was carried out in 1965-1980 by B. E. Markarian and his colleagues using the 1 m Schmidt telescope of the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory and resulted in discovery of 1517 UV-excess (Markarian) galaxies. FBS low-resolution spectral plates have been used long period to search and study faint late-type stars (LTSs, M-type and C(carbon) stars) at high galactic latitudes. I will review in this paper the results obtained for late-LTSs using FBS spectral plates. At present the survey is digitized and DFBS database is available. This paper reports also recent new discovered C and M-type stars, and a huge amount of the LTSs candidates selected in the DFBS data base. This paper informed also detecting some amount of the new dwarf carbon (dC) star candidates.
