Catalog of Nearby Galaxies and the Local Cosmic Web
Igor D. Karachentsev, Valentina E. Karachentseva, Walter K. Huchtmeier +1
We compiled an all-sky catalog of 451 nearby galaxies, each having an individual distance estimate $D \la 10$ Mpc or the radial velocity km s. The catalog con…
The 2MASS-selected Flat Galaxy Catalog
S. N. Mitronova, I. D. Karachentsev, V. E. Karachentseva +2
An all-sky catalog of 18020 disc-like galaxies is presented. The galaxies are selected from the Extended Source Catalog of the Two Micron All-Sky Survey (XSC 2MASS) basing on their…
The Revised Flat Galaxy Catalogue
I. D. Karachentsev, V. E. Karachentseva, Yu. N. Kudrya +2
We present a new improved and completed version of the Flat Galaxy Catalogue (FGC) named the Revised Flat Galaxy Catalogue (RFGC) containing 4236 thin edge-on spiral galaxies and c…
A list of peculiar velocities of RFGC galaxies
I. D. Karachentsev, V. E. Karachentseva, Yu. N. Kudrya +2
A list of radial velocities, HI line widths and peculiar velocities of 1327 galaxies from the RFGC catalogue has been compiled using actual observations and literature data. The li…
Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies in the M81 Group Imaged with WFPC2
I. D. Karachentsev, V. E. Karachentseva, A. E. Dolphin +7
We obtained HST/WFPC2 images of the dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies K61, K63, K64, DDO78, BK6N, and kk77 in the M81 group. Our color-magnitude diagrams show red giant branches wit…
A Dwarf Galaxy Survey in the Local Volume
E. K. Grebel, P. Seitzer, A. E. Dolphin +6
We are carrying out a comprehensive multi-wavelength study of dwarf galaxies in the Local Volume (< 5 Mpc). After our all-sky survey more than doubled the dwarf census we are now m…
