From surface photometric analysis, we obtain radial profiles of surface brightness, colors, ellipticity, position angle, and the Fourier coefficients that describe the departure of isophotal shapes from a purely elliptical form; we find the presence of dust lanes, patches, and ringlike structure in several galaxies in the sample. We obtain total integrated magnitudes and colors and find that these are in good agreement with the values from the Third Reference Catalogue. Isophotal colors are correlated with each other, following the sequence expected for early-type galaxies. The color gradients in lenticular galaxies are more negative than the corresponding gradients in elliptical galaxies. There is a good correlation between BÀVand BÀR color gradients, and the mean gradients in the BÀV, BÀR,andVÀK0 colors are À0:13 Æ 0:06, À0:18 Æ 0:06, and À0:25 Æ 0:11 mag dexÀ1 in radius, respectively.

  • Observing Galaxies in Pegasus 01 October 2015 23:07
    Observing galaxies in Pegasus 01 October 2015 23:07 Context As you look towards Pegasus you are looking below the galactic plane under the Orion spiral arm of our galaxy. The Perseus-Pisces supercluster wall of galaxies runs through this constellation. It stretches from RA 3h +40 in Perseus to 23h +10 in Pegasus and is around 200 million light years away. It includes the Pegasus I group noted later this document. The constellation is well placed from mid summer to late autumn. Pegasus is a rich constellation for galaxy observing. I have observed 80 galaxies in this constellation. Relatively bright galaxies This section covers the galaxies that were visible with direct vision in my 16 inch or smaller scopes. This list will therefore grow over time as I have not yet viewed all the galaxies in good conditions at maximum altitude in my 16 inch scope! NGC 7331 MAG 9 This is the stand out galaxy of the constellation. It is similar to our milky way. Around it are a number of fainter NGC galaxies. I have seen the brightest one, NGC 7335 in my 10 inch scope with averted vision. I have seen NGC 7331 in my 25 x 100mm binoculars. NGC 7814 - Mag 10 ? Not on observed list ? This is a very lovely oval shaped galaxy. By constellation Page 1 NGC 7332 MAG 11 / NGC 7339 MAG 12 These galaxies are an isolated bound pair about 67 million light years away. NGC 7339 is the fainter of the two galaxies at the eyepiece. I have seen NGC 7332 in my 25 x 100mm binoculars.

(present address) Received 14 February 2003 / Accepted 6 May 2003 Abstract. In this second paper on the investigation of extraplanar diffuse ionized gas in nearby edge–on spiral galaxies we present the actual results of the individual galaxies of our Hα imaging survey. A grand total of 74 galaxies have been studied, including the 9 galaxies of a recently studied sub–sample (Rossa & Dettmar 2000). 40.5% of all studied galaxies reveal extraplanar diffuse ionized gas, whereas in 59.5% of the survey galaxies no extraplanar diffuse ionized gas could be detected. The average distances of this extended emission above the galactic midplane range from 1–2 kpc, while individual filaments in a few galaxies reach distances of up to |z| ∼ 6 kpc. In several cases a pervasive layer of ionized gas was detected, similar to the Reynolds layer in our Milky Way, while other galaxies reveal only extended emission locally. The morphology of the diffuse ionized gas is discussed for each galaxy and is compared with observations of other important ISM constituents in the context of the disk–halo connection, in those cases where published results were available.

  • Star Clusters in Local Group Galaxies 3
    Massive Stellar Clusters ASP Conference Series, Vol. XX, 2000 A. Lan¸con & C. Boily, eds. Star Clusters in Local Group Galaxies – Impact of Environment on Their Evolution and Survival Eva K. Grebel1,2 1University of Washington, Department of Astronomy, Box 351580, Seattle, WA 98195, USA 2Hubble Fellow Abstract. Star clusters are found in ∼40% of the Local Group galax- ies. Their properties are reviewed. The impact of galaxy environment on the evolution and survival of star clusters is discussed. Possible evi- dence for cluster formation triggered by galaxy interactions, gradients in cluster size, metallicity and stellar content with galactocentric radius and variations as a function of galaxy type are briefly summarized. 1. Introduction Star clusters in Local Group galaxies comprise a wide range of roughly coeval stellar agglomerates ranging from globular clusters to associations, from very metal-poor objects to clusters with solar and higher metallicity, and from ancient populations to embedded young clusters. Three basic types of such clusterings are observed: globular clusters, open clusters, and associations. 1.1. Globular Clusters Globular clusters are centrally concentrated, spherical systems with masses of 4.2 ∼< log M[M⊙] ∼< 6.6 and tidal radii ranging from ∼ 10 to ∼ 100 pc. They are bound, long-lived (∼>10 Gyr) objects whose lifetimes may extend to a Hubble arXiv:astro-ph/9912529v2 30 Dec 1999 time or beyond, though due to various efficient destruction mechanisms the presently observed globulars are likely just a lower limit of the initial number of globular clusters. Globular clusters have been observed in all known types of galaxies, but many of the less massive galaxies do not contain globular clusters.

    Hi studies of the Sculptor group galaxies. VIII. The background galaxies: NGC 24 and NGC 45 Laurent Chemin1,2, Claude Carignan1, Nathalie Drouin1, and Kenneth C. Freeman3 [chemin,carignan]@astro.umontreal.ca, [email protected] ABSTRACT In order to complete our Hi survey of galaxies in the Sculptor group area, VLA observations of NGC 24 and NGC 45 are presented. These two galaxies of similar magnitude MB ∼ −17.4 lie in the background of the Sculptor group and are low surface brightness galaxies, especially NGC 45. The Hi distribution and kinematics are regular for NGC 24 while NGC 45 exhibits a kinematical twist of its major axis. A tilted-ring model shows that the position angle of the major axis changes by ∼ 25◦. A best-fit model of their mass distribution gives mass-to-light ratios for the stellar disk of 2.5 and 5.2 for NGC 24 and NGC 45 respectively. These values are higher than the ones expected from stellar population synthesis models. Despite the large dark matter contribution, the galaxy mass is still dominated by the stellar component in their very inner regions. These high mass-to-light ratios are typical of what is seen in low surface brightness galaxies and may indicate that, in those galaxies, disks are far from the maximum disk case. The halo parameters derived from the best-fit models are thus lower limits. Subject headings: galaxies: halos — galaxies: fundamental parameter (mass) — galaxies: individual (NGC 24, NGC 45) — galaxies: kinematics and dynamics galaxies: structure 1.

A DISTANCE SCALE FROM THE INFRARED MAGNITUDE/H I VELOCITY-WIDTH RELATION. IV. THE MORPHOLOGICAL TYPE DEPENDENCE AND SCATTER IN THE RELATION; THE DISTANCES TO NEARBY GROUPS Marc Aaronson Steward Observatory, University of Arizona AND Jeremy Mould Kitt Peak National Observatory1 Received 1982 February 5; accepted 1982 July 19 ABSTRACT A newly published catalog of infrared and 21 cm data for 300 galaxies in the Local Supercluster is analyzed in order to investigate empirically several properties of the Tully-Fisher relation. For this sample, we obtain the following results: 1. In the infrared, there is no significant dependence of the Tully-Fisher relation with type. A small type dependence is found in the blue; however, the spread in profile width at fixed magnitude is only about one-third as great as that found earlier by Roberts. 2. The slope of the Tully-Fisher relation is wavelength dependent, increasing in value from the blue to the infrared. The slope of the relation does appear steeper than previously indicated, though, and a small nonlinearity is identified. 3. The scatter in the Tully-Fisher relation is smaller in the infrared, where a ~ 0.45 mag, than in the optical. Distances to a number of nearby groups are calculated using the absolute calibration from Paper I. Good agreement in relative distance is found with both the Sandage-Tammann and de Vaucouleurs scales. Current disagreement over the absolute distance scale and value of the Hubble constant appears reduced to two issues: the infall velocity toward Virgo, and the distance scale for galaxies in the neighborhood of the Milky Way.
