9.1 General Information and Integral Properties of Galaxies

9.1.1 Catalogues, Atlases, Positions

9.1.1.1 General Catalogues of Non-Stellar Objects

ESO = The ESO/Uppsala Survey of the ESO(B) Atlas by Lauberts [27]

GC = General Catalogue by Herschel 1864 [17]

IC = Index Catalogue of Dreyer [12]

M = Messier's (1784) catalogue of nebular objects [34] , modern version [16]

MOL = Master List of Non-Stellar Astronomical Objects by Dixon and Sonneborn [10]

NGC = New General Catalogue by Dreyer [11]

RNGC = Revised New General Catalogue by Sulentic and Tifft [44]

Of 110 entries in Messier's catalogue, the 39 objects listed in Table 1 are now known to be external galaxies (see [16] for a modern and accessible compilation). A similarly large proportion of the entries of GC, NGC, and IC are also extragalactic as evidenced by the early examination of the GC [222], and subsequent modern re-examinations RNGC [44]. This latter study is based upon an inspection of the objects as they appear on the POSS-photographs [53] and so descriptions are limited to northern objects.

Only as the true nature of the various classes of ``nebulae" became known in the early decades of the twentieth century, did external galaxies lay claim to being catalogued in their own right. Nevertheless, in the tradition of the NGC, the ``Quick Blue" European Southern Observatory (ESO) Sky Survey was made available with extensive listing and descriptions of all non-stellar southern objects [18, 27] so as to make interesting new Galactic and extragalactic objects immediately available to the large reflectors being completed in the southern hemisphere.

Collectively, the compilations cited above contain most of the apparently brightest galaxies in the northern and southern hemispheres in their files. Prior to this the most comprehensive compilation of non-stellar objects drawn from the published literature, and merged purely by a sequential positional ordering, is the Master List of Non-Stellar Astronomical Objects by Dixon and Sonneborn [10] which contains a listing of over 200,000 entries. Recently the NGC/IC catalogues have been been made more accessible in a corrected form, updated to the equinox 2000.0 [43]

9.1.1.5.4 Dusty Ellipticals

Dusty ellipticals as a class of galaxies characterized by an elliptical-like body and a disk or ring of gas and dust with no substantial population of stars in it were first pointed out by [74] . Ebneter and Balick [120] have published a list of 103 dusty ellipticals as drawn from the literature [72, 74, 139, 181, 268]; see also [75, 93, 136, 202, 203, 254, 272] for detailed studies of these and related objects [171, 175, 255, 256, 257, 258].

9.1.1.5.5 Ellipticals with Shells

Arp [1] first drew attention to ellipticals with shells. These were further illustrated in Arp and Madore [2] and catalogued by [195, 216]. A review of their status is given in [61], and also [217] which outlines a three-way classification scheme: Type 1 include systems whose shells are aligned; Type 2 have position angles of the shells randomly distributed around the central galaxy; Type 3 includes all other systems where there are only a small number of shells, or where the shells are not manifest as well-defined concentric structures.

9.1.1.6 Positional Identifications

9.1.1.6.1 General References

(For abbreviations, see 9.1.1.1, 9.1.1.2, 9.1.1.3). Most of the NGC/IC objects are identified on the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) charts. For northern RC1 Galaxies (x,y) mm positions on the POSS prints are calculated from nominal ( , ) in [172]. Sulentic and Tifft [44] also give rectangular coordinates measured directly from the POSS. An atlas of transparent overlays for the POSS (marking all objects listed in the MOL) is given in [116]. In CGCG [52], galaxies are identified with respect to bright stars and clusters of galaxies on individual charts for each POSS field. For the ESO/SRC survey, the tabulations of [18] also give (x, y) millimeter positions for the ``Quick Blue'' survey, as does the Arp-Madore Catalogue [2] for the ESO/SRC J-survey. Finding charts for galaxies with ultraviolet continua can be found in [30, 31, 32 76, 197, 198, 199, 200, 260] with a summary listing in [33]. Fragmentary lists of peculiar and interacting galaxies are given in [56, 248], containing positions and selected photographs.

9.1.1.6.2 High-Precision Psitions

With the advent of high-precision radio source positions, similarly accurate optical positions are needed. To meet this need a number of observers have remeasured positions of galaxies with respect to AGK stars (see 8.1.1.5) either directly or by using the intermediate step of producing transparent overlays. Extensive lists of positions are given in [58, 70, 88, 94, 99, 117, 130, 132, 133, 134, 135, 161, 176, 177, 178, 179, 180, 209, 211, 236, 241, 243, 262, 273, 280]. Depending on the method used and the definition of the galaxy's nucleus, the accuracies quoted for the best cases are now on the order of 0.1 arcsec, although typical accuracies are 3-10 arcsec.

9.1.1.6.3 Electronic Services: The NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database

Since June 1990 the NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED) has been freely available for use by the astronomical community world-wide [141, 142]. NED is an on-going project that organizes a broad range of published extragalactic data into a computer-based central archive, which is designed for fast and flexible query via electronic networks. See also [207, 208].

NED provides positions, names, and basic data for over 200,000 extragalactic objects, as well as some 250,000 bibliographic references to 20,000 published papers, theses, notes from catalogues and other publications. NED supports searches for objects and for references, and will forward to the user, upon request, files containing data retrieved during a session. It also allows users to view the contents of several major catalogues, and to browse through abstracts of articles of extragalactic interest that have appeared since 1988 in five major journals (Astron. Astrophys., Astron. J., Astrophys. J., Mon. Not. Roy. Astron. Soc., Publ. Astron. Soc. Pacific., including their Letters and Supplements).

The NED service may be accessed over INTERNET or NSI-DECNET (previously known as SPAN): (i) On INTERNET, a connection to IPAC may be set up with the command: telnet ned.ipac.caltech.edu. (ii) From a node on NSI-DECNET, use the command: set host IPAC (the absolute address is 5.857). Once connected to IPAC and prompted for a ``login'', simply respond with NED; no password is needed. From this point on, the system is self-documenting, especially through the HELP utilities and the ``control-H'' key.

9.1.1.7 Named Galaxies

A number of galaxies are known by name; they are familiar but their positions are not necessarily easy to obtain. Table 2 contains the names, selected cross identifications and positions for a number of these galaxies.

9.1.2 Apparent Integral Properties of Galaxies

9.1.2.1 Magnitudes

For abbreviations of catalogues, see 9.1.1.

For bright galaxies, probably the most widely used system of magnitudes is the B(O) system [81]. B(O) is the integrated magnitude derived from photoelectric or modern photographic magnitudes in the Johnson B system (see 4.2.5.12) or magnitudes transformed to this system. B(O) magnitudes are given for 873 objects in RC1 (= [7] in 9.1.1.3). To incorporate the rich data base of galaxy magnitudes given by Shapley and Ames [247], systematic errors in these so-called Harvard magnitudes, mH have been investigated in [75, 76, 140]. These magnitudes have been corrected for surface-brightness and luminosity-gradient dependent errors and transformed to the B(O) system as corrected Harvard magnitudes mc in RC2 (= [8] in 9.1.1.3). A comprehensive source list of B magnitudes is given in RC1 (Table 10) and RC2 (Tables 10 and 11), but some of the more important individual sources of magnitudes of galaxies in the UBV system are [22, 23, 78, 79, 80, 81, 87, 234].

For fainter galaxies, the most extensive photometry in the north is that contained in the CGCG (= [52] in 9.1.1.2) and derived from ``schraffierkassette" photographic photometry down to an estimated completeness limit of m = 15.5 mag. The MCG (= [49] in 9.1.1.2) also contains magnitude estimates down to mpg < 15.0 mag. Remarks on the MCG versus CGCG magnitude scales are found in [178]. Magnitude errors in the CGCG have been investigated in [142, 237] and more extensively by Huchra [143], who shows that the CGCG magnitudes differ by 0.12 mag. per mag with respect to B(O) magnitudes and have a scatter of ~ 0.35 mag; but note the anomaly in Vol. I [117], and see also [9, 11, 35, 180]. In the southern hemisphere the ESO-LV (= [28] in 9.1.1.3) contains photographic B,R photometry for 16,000 galaxies, based on UBVRI photoelectric data from [181, 182, 208].

Aperture photometry for southern E and S0 galaxies [**]; VRI aperture photometry of 115 galaxies [216]; UBVRI aperture photometry for 169 early-type galaxies [217]; UBVRI photometry for 14 central, dominant galaxies in clusters [190]; UBV photometry for 360 objects [272]; UBV aperture photometry for 169 galaxies [233]. 109 galaxies in Virgo designed to serve as photographic B-band photometric standards [24]; UBV photometry of 196 non-Seyfert Markarian galaxies [144]; photographic B-band surface brightness measurements for 1,550 galaxies in Fornax [214]; 693 UBVRI aperture photometry measurements for 91 active galaxies [125]. UBVRIJHK photometry for a complete sample of interacting galaxies [153]; UBV photometry of 36 Markarian and S0 galaxies [213]; UBV photoelectric photometry of 19 nests of galaxies [6].

Photographic and CCD surface photometry of 33 early-type galaxies in Virgo is given in [43]. Digital surface photometry of 20 Virgo galaxies [273]. Other recent compilations of original data include [41, 71, 90, 152, 173, 176, 183, 193, 194, 195]; UBV multi-aperture photometry of 46 Virgo E/S0 galaxies [**]. UBVR surface photometry of 16 LSB galaxies [231]. Surface photometry of NGC 7793, NGC 247 and NGC 300 [47]. V surface photometry for 261 brightest cluster members in 63 clusters [243]. B surface photometry for 69 dwarf ellipticals in Virgo [150]. V photographic surface photometry of 13 bright galaxies in the Fornax cluster [136]; BR CCD photometry of low surface brightness galaxies in Fornax [65]; BVI CCD photometry of Fornax LSB galaxies [33]. UBVR aperture photometry of 107 galaxies and JHK photometry of 80 field, 35 Virgo and 22 Coma galaxies [212]. JHK aperture photometry [1, 2, 32, 112, 221]; UBV photoelectric aperture photometry for 61 galaxies [256]. UBV photometric catalogue of double galaxies [73]; JK surface photometry for 12 bright elliptical galaxies [209]. B-band surface photometry of 18 S0 and E galaxies [40]. Distribution of B luminosity in 26 spiral galaxies [30]. Detailed surface photometry of 6 galaxies [245]. Surface photometry for 131 southern elliptical galaxies [71]. Types, magnitudes and diameters for 220 galaxies in the Hercules supercluster [39].

Extensive compilations of bibliographic references to optical surface photometry of galaxies (complete to January 1985) are given in [68, 210]. BV CCD observations of galaxies in the Coma and Hercules supercluster [114]. ubVr photoelectric photometry for 405 E/S0 galaxies [238]; Gunn r-band CCD photometry of 105 field galaxies [170] with bulge/disk deconvolution [171]; photometric catalog of 463 galaxies in 100 compact groups [132]; optical colors of early-type galaxies in compact groups [281]; multiwavelength isophotal data for southern ellipticals [254]; VRI CCD photometry of 9 early-type galaxies in Virgo [19]; UBVRI photometry for 80 compact galaxies [198]; optical B(CCD) and infrared (JHK) follow-up studies on 23 IRAS mini-survey galaxies [199, 200].

Sources of infrared surface photometry (e.g., [4, 261]) can be found in ``A Catalogue of Visual and Infrared Photometry of Galaxies from 0.5 µm to 10 µm (1961-1985)'' [74] or gleaned from The Catalog of Infrared Observations [115]. IRAS fluxes of galaxies can be obtained in the CGQ and in [46, 252, 279] for the IRAS bright-galaxy sample, and in [253] for IRAS mini-survey galaxies; for 196 Virgo galaxies [131].

X-ray fluxes of galaxies can be found in [42, 94, 98, 100, 107, 187] while an x-ray catalogue and atlas for 493 galaxies has been published by [99]; x-ray measurements for 334 active galaxies and nuclei [70].

Asymptotic/Total Magnitudes, B(total)

In order to transform aperture-photometry of galaxies out to ``infinite" radius (or zero surface brightness) magnitude-aperture curves for various galaxy types are given in RC2 (= [8] in 9.1.1.3). These curves were derived from published standard total magnitudes [3, 8, 20, 21, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 110] and applied to the data in RC2. A General Catalogue of Photoelectric Magnitudes and Colors in the UBV System of 3,578 Galaxies Brighter than 16th mag has been compiled by Longo, G. and de Vaucouleurs, A.: [189] complete to 1982.

9.1.2.2 Dimensions of Galaxies

Isophotal Major-Axis Diameters

Redman [222] suggested that galaxy diameters should be operationally defined by the µB(B) = 25.0 mag/arcsec2 isophote. This corresponds to a surface brightness about one-tenth of the night-sky brightness and is very nearly the maximum detectable diameter on blue prints of the POSS (= [53] in 9.1.1.1). Holmberg [140], however, chose to define his diameters at a few percent of the sky brightness, µpg 26.5 mag/arcsec2. The choice is arbitrary, but as fainter isophotal diameters are chosen the constraints on the data become more demanding and, as a result, the diameters in general are probably less well defined.

Major sources for diameters of galaxies are [75, 138, 140, 186, 223, 246, 247, 224, 270] and others as listed in Table 8 of RC1 (= [7] in 9.1.1.3) and Table 5 of RC3. In addition, diameters are listed in the Atlas de Galaxias Australes (= [41] in 9.1.1.5.2) UGC (= [35] in 9.1.1.2; but see also 109) UGCA (= [36] in 9.1.1.2) MCG (= [49] in 9.1.1.2; but see also 109) ESO (= [27; but see also [109, 205] in 9.1.1.1) ESO-LV (= [28] in 9.1.1.3) SGC (= [6] in 9.1.1.2) VCC (= [3] in 9.1.1.2) and KUG (= [182, 183] in 9.1.3.4.5) which in turn have been transformed to a standard diameter, D25, in RC2 and RC3 ([9] in 9.1.1.3). Standard diameters for 237 galaxies measured at 25 and 26.5 mag/square arcsec [183], revised and up-dated to include 608 standard photometric diameters [204] as well as many transformation equations for other studies, based on [39, 45, 66, 194, 211] cluster spirals [60]; see also Kallogyan's study [155, 156, 157].

Axial Ratios and ``Face-On'' Diameters

The measured apparent major-axis diameter is a function of inclination [75, 76, 139, 278]. Galaxies viewed more edge-on have larger apparent diameters due to finite thickness of the disk resulting in a greater optical path: and thus an increased surface brightness at fixed radius. Corrections to a ``face-on'' isophotal diameter D(0)25 have been investigated [76], revised [129] and applied to galaxies in the RC2 (= [8] in 9.1.1.3). However, see also [266, 267]. Axial ratios, necessary for correcting the diameters, are taken principally from the MCG ([49] in 9.1.1.2), UGC ([35] in 9.1.1.2) or [140], and are transformed to the standard 25 mag/arcsec2 isophotal ratio, R25, in RC2 ([8] in 9.1.1.3).

Mean Surface Brightness

The RC2 ([8] in 9.1.1.3) tabulates two average surface brightnesses: M'25, the average surface brightness contained within an ellipse of diameter D25 and axial ratio R25, and M'e, the average surface brightness within an aperture Ae that contains half of the total light (i.e., containing half of the asymptotic magnitude Btotal ). The first definition is relatively straightforward to compute, the latter is more complicated and somewhat model dependent. See also the mean surface brightness study of isolated and double galaxies [5].

9.1.2.3 Colours

In the RC2 ([8] in 9.1.1.3) 959 galaxies have total (B-V) colour indices derived from multi-aperture data; 682 have (U-B) colours listed. These colours have been transformed either from original UBV observations, or from other similar colour systems as enumerated in Table 11 of RC2. Recent UBV photometry for additional galaxies: [37, 61, 122, 124, 212, 274]. A general catalog of photoelectric magnitudes and colors in the UBV system for 3,578 galaxies brighter than 16th mag [189].

IRAS colours of normal galaxies from the CGQ (= [29] in 9.1.1.3) are discussed in [130]; for UGC galaxies in [34]; for normal irregular galaxies in [147]; and for the IRAS bright-galaxy sample [252] by [46].

UV magnitudes and colours for 156 galaxies observed by the IUE satellite have been presented by [188], while data for other investigations have been summarized in [44, 92, 276]; 1910-Angstrom colours and magnitudes [91]. 25 very red [(B-V) > 0.7 mag], yet HI rich (log(MHI)/LB > -0.6), spiral galaxies [36].

9.1.2.4 Redshifts

Stromberg's original list [258] of optical radial velocities contained 41 galaxies. Some forty years later optical redshifts for 583 galaxies were published [146]. In the RC1 and RC2 ([7,8] in 9.1.1.3) some 280 references to sources of optical velocity data are listed (Tables 12 and 13, respectively), with an additional 538 references to optical redshifts being found in RC3 ([9] in 9.1.1.3). Velocity data is no longer restricted to the optical measurements but includes derivations from 21-cm radio observations (see for instance [148, 262], Table V2 in RC2, and 209 references to radio wavelength redshifts in RC3, complete to 1987); corrections for errors in redshifts [232]

A major compilation [206] contains redshifts and original references for 8,250 galaxies, complete to 1980 and supersedes [121]; cross-correlation redshifts are discussed for 59 galaxies in [167]; redshifts for 115 galaxies [248]; a study of a complete sample of field galaxies [174]; data for 1093 galaxies with mpg < 15.5 mag in a 6 degree strip across the North Galactic Cap [145]; the southern sky redshift survey [63]; radial velocities for 301 pairs of galaxies [158]; 44 galaxies in Perseus [106]; 359 galaxies in Abell clusters [280]; 285 galaxies observed for bulge-to-disk ratio estimates [241]; IRAS galaxies in the Bootes Void area [268]; a deep survey of 280 galaxies [175]; deep survey of IRAS galaxies towards the Bootes Void [89]; 5 suspected superclusters [53]; s-type Markarian galaxies [149]; multi-object spectroscopy of galaxies in Abell 400, 576, 1767 and 2124 [135]; 102 dwarf galaxies [96]; 75 galaxies in Abell 2256 [172]; 387 southern compact and bright-nuclei galaxies [102, 103]; 84 brightest Abell cluster galaxies [242]; 100 galaxies in 10 clusters [219]; 161 galaxies in 11 clusters [101]; 71 galaxies in the Indus region [62]; galaxies in Abell 496 and 2052 [220]; Tololo emission-line galaxies [28]; 298 late-type galaxies in the Virgo Cluster [137]; 155 galaxies in the winter Galactic Plane [196]; 135 galaxies in the Virgo region [97]; 472 galaxies in the Pisces-Perseus supercluster [120]; 100 galaxies in the Coma Cluster [263]; high-precision 21cm redshifts for 625 galaxies [264]; low surface brightness objects [244]; 150 galaxies in the Hercules supercluster [260]; 123 galaxies in the Cancer cluster [12]; 83 galaxies in poor cD clusters [18]; 21cm velocities for 440 galaxies betwen the Local supercluster and the Hydra-Centaurus supercluster [228]; 71 galaxies in the Hydra I (Abell 1060) cluster [229]; 469 elliptical galaxies [67]; 342 galaxies toward the Bootes Void [257]; 88 image-tube spectra of 79 galaxies [165]; flux-limited sample of 72 IRAS galaxies [249]; 21cm velocities for 342 out of 415 galaxies, and 383 galaxies observed in the Pisces-Perseus supercluster [118, 119, 127]; 228 southern galaxies [64]; Medium Sensitivity Survey X-ray sources [116]; several hundred spiral galaxies in 10 clusters [31]; 21cm redshifts for 324 isolated galaxies [126]; 26 galaxies in the direction of the Coma/Abell 1367 supercluster [123]; 92 galaxies in the direction of the Coma cluster [265]; flux-limited sample of IRAS galaxies [269]; 129 galaxies in groups and clusters [51]; approximately 40 galaxy redshifts in each of 14 rich clusters [55]; 1,268 radial velocities in 15 rich clusters [95]; 157 galaxies in 54 triplets [161]; galaxies in the Horologium region [52]; 559 Selected Area 94 objects [17]; 719 bright galaxies [235]; 21cm observations of 1787 nearby galaxies [105]; 21cm observations for 183 galaxies [262]; 164 field galaxies brighter than B ~ 15.5 mag [174]; 90 IRAS galaxies [133]; 172 central galaxies and companions [7]; 530 IRAS galaxies [184]; 70 peculiar objects [191]; redshifts in Klemola 27 [225]; 21cm observations for galaxies in the Pegasus I cluster [226]; 156 binary systems [275]; 145 blue Zwicky compact galaxies [179]; 160 galaxies in Abell 194 [50]; 289 galaxies in Abell 539 [201]; 107 southern galaxies [207]; 266 galaxies in the Hydra-Centaurus region [104]; the Fornax clsuter [154, 227]; 300 galaxies in a strip crossing the Coma cluster [160]; galaxies with supernovae [13, 14, 15, 16]; compilation of double galaxy redshifts [215]; radial velocities of isolated galaxies [162]; 39 peculiar ESO galaxies [29]; redshifts for Karachensteva isolated galaxies [163], and for Karachentsev isolated triples [164]; radial velocities for 21 interacting double galaxies [159]; Zwicky compact galaxies [239].

Accidental and systematic errors in various sets of velocity measurements are discussed in [10, 86, 141, 185, 203, 230, 232]. A total of 2,713 velocities are reduced to a standard system in RC2; this was increased to 16,693 in RC3.

Corrections for the Solar Motion:

Radial velocities, V, when referred to the Galactic centre, must be corrected for the orbital motion of the Sun. Most researchers in the field (e.g., [236] or RC2) adopt the standard correction of

        V = 300sinl x cosb kms-1

where it is assumed that the Sun is moving at 300 km s-1 toward l = 90 , b = 0, which is in good agreement with the estimate of V = (315 ± 15) km s-1 toward l = 95, b = -8 for the Local Group velocity centroid [88]. For definition of Galactic coordinates l and b, see 8.*.*.*
