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.
