KDG 162: A Nearby Isolated Star-forming Dwarf Galaxy

Gagandeep S. Anand, Igor D. Karachentsev, Meredith J. Durbin +6

The nearby dwarf galaxy KDG 162 (also known as KK 153) has recently attracted attention as a potentially gas-rich, isolated, and low-mass dwarf galaxy. However, many of these chara…

New optical velocities for local galaxy candidates

Maksim Chazov, Igor Karachentsev, Serafim Kaisin

We used the 6-meter BTA telescope to determine radial velocities for 46 galaxies, previously considered to be nearby objects. Twelve of them have kinematic distances within 13Mpc a…
