  • Descrição: We describe the construction of a database of extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars in the Galaxy. Our database contains detailed elemental abundances, reported equivalent widths, atmospheric parameters, photometry, and binarity status, compiled from papers in the literature that report on studies of EMP halo stars with [Fe/H] $\;\le\;$ $-$ 2.5. The compilation procedures for this database were designed to assemble data effectively from electronic tables available from online journals. We have also developed a data retrieval system that enables data searches by various criteria and illustrations to explore relationships between stored variables. Currently, our sample includes 1212 unique stars (many of which are studied by more than one group) with more than 15000 individual reported elemental abundances, covering relevant papers published by 2007 December. We discuss the global characteristics of the present database, as revealed by the EMP stars observed to date. For stars with [Fe/H] $\;\le\;$ $-$ 2.5, the number of giants with reported abundances is larger than that of dwarfs by a factor of two. The fraction of carbon-rich stars (among the sample for which the carbon abundance is reported) amounts to $\sim\;$ 30% for [Fe/H] $\;\le\;$ $-$ 2.5. We find that known binaries exhibit different distributions of the orbital period, according to whether they are giants or dwarfs, and also as a function of the metallicity, although the total sample of such stars is still quite small.
