Low Surface Brightness Dwarf Galaxies in the Bristol - Anglo-Australian Observatory Virgo Cluster Survey
J. B. Jones, S. Phillipps, J. M. Schwartzenberg +1
We describe a new, deep photographic survey of the Virgo Cluster which uses multiple exposures on Tech Pan film with the United Kingdom Schmidt Telescope to probe the dwarf populat…
The Fornax Spectroscopic Survey --- Low Surface Brightness Galaxies in Fornax
M. J. Drinkwater, S. Phillipps, J. B. Jones
The Fornax Spectroscopic Survey is a large optical spectroscopic survey of ALL 14,000 objects with 16.5<Bj<19.7 in a 12 sq.deg area of sky centered on the Fornax Cluster. We are us…
Found: High Surface Brightness Compact Galaxies
M. J. Drinkwater, S. Phillipps, J. B. Jones +5
We are using the 2dF spectrograph to make a survey of all objects (`stars' and `galaxies') in a 12 sq.deg region towards the Fornax cluster. We have discovered a population of comp…
A Complete 2dF Survey of Fornax
M. J. Drinkwater, E. M. Sadler, J. I. Davies +5
We are using the 2dF spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope to obtain spectra for a complete sample of all 14000 objects with 16.5<B<19.7 in a 12 square degree area centred…
