看了这里的说明,应该是很全面的了:
http://www.aavso.org/vsx/
The VSX database was initially populated with the entire Combined General Catalog of Variable Stars (GCVS 4.2, 2004 Ed.). This included the main lists from Vol. I-III, the NSV catalog of suspected variable stars and its supplements, all cross-identifications from Vol. IV, and all references and remarks from all volumes. Differences between the published 2004 Edition of the GCVS and the "living" version available from the Sternberg file servers were then culled and integrated. On top of this base data set were added the published catalogs of red variables from the Northern Sky Variability Survey (NSVS), the detected variables from the 3rd All Sky Automated Survey (ASAS-3), all new variables reported in the various volumes of the Information Bulletin on Variable Stars (IBVS), the Miras and eclipsing binaries found and published from Phase 2 data of the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE-II), and the bright contact binaries extracted from data of the Robotic Optical Transient Search Experiment (ROTSE-I). All together, this became the Base 1.0 Version of the VSX object table. Internal relations between the object, reference, remark, and cross-identification tables were established programmatically using the various source data. New, unpublished cross-identifications between the various catalogs were generated through custom cone search algorithms, and then verified.
也就是说VSX1.0涵盖了:
GCVS
NSV
NSVS
ASAS-3
IBVS
OGLE-II
ROTSE-I
