Description
The tables presented here give the catalogue of aperture photometry of galaxies (UBVRI), the associated bibliography, the weight and systematic corrections applied to individual datasets. A table give the results of the growth curve fits; the net of curves adopted is a linear interpolation between the de Vaucouleurs (r^1/4^) and exponential laws. This aperture photometry has three different origins: (i) an update of the catalogue of Buta et al. 1995 (Cat. <J/AJ/109/517>) (ii) published photometric profiles and (iii) aperture photometry performed on CCD images. Fitting growth curves to aperture photometry of galaxies, in UBVRI, we derive (1) the total magnitude, (2) the effective radius, (3) the color indices and (4) gradients and (5) the photometric type of 5066 galaxies. The photometric type is defined to statistically match the revised morphologic type (numerically coded from -6 to +10) and represents the shape of the growth curve. The catalogue is maintained up-to-date in the database HYPERCAT (http://www-obs.univ-lyon1.fr/~prugniel/cgi-bin/hypercat/). This catalogue supersedes the Longo and de Vaucouleurs (1983) catalogue <VII/167>.
