Description
This catalog lists coordinates, names, and radial velocities for 8250 galaxies scattered over the whole sky. Both optical and radio measures are included. The individual values are given as published, with a reference to each, but no unpublished data are included. An attempt was made to obtain the most accurate coordinates for each object rather than relying on the source papers. In addition to the positions and heliocentric velocities, the catalog contains a name of the galaxy, whether the observation is made by radio or optically, the mean error of the velocity, a correction for the galactic motion of the Sun, and comments. This electronic version is a slightly improved version compared to the published one, and contains more names. References and notes are not included, and the user must refer to the printed version to get them.
