- Description:
- As a prerequisite for cosmological studies using adaptive optics techniques, we have begun to identify and characterize faint sources in the vicinity of bright stars at high Galactic latitudes. The initial phase of this work has been a program of K_s_ imaging conducted with SOFI at the ESO NTT. From observations of 42 southern fields evenly divided between the spring and autumn skies, we have identified 391 additional stars and 1589 galaxies lying at separations <60" from candidate guide stars in the magnitude range 9.0<R<12.4. When analyzed as a "discrete deep field" with 131-arcmin^2^ area, our dataset gives galaxy number counts that agree with those derived previously over the range 16<K_s_<20.5. This consistency indicates that in the aggregate, our fields should be suitable for future statistical studies. We provide our source catalogue as a resource for users of large telescopes in the southern hemisphere.

- Description:
- The gravitational lens system CLASS B2108+213 has two radio-loud lensed images separated by 4.56 arcsec. The relatively large image separation implies that the lensing is caused by a group of galaxies. In this paper, new optical imaging and spectroscopic data for the lensing galaxies of B2108+213 and the surrounding field galaxies are presented. These data are used to investigate the mass and composition of the lensing structure.

- Description:
- We present a catalog of morphological and color data for galaxies with 21<I_814<25mag in the Hubble Deep Field (Williams et al. 1996, in Science with the Hubble Space Telescope II). Galaxies have been inspected and (when possible) independently visually classified on the MDS and DDO systems. Measurements of central concentration and asymmetry are also included in the catalog. The fraction of interacting and merging objects is seen to be significantly higher in the Hubble Deep Field than it is among nearby galaxies. Barred spirals are essentially absent from the deep sample. The fraction of early-type galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field is similar to the fraction of early-types in the Shapley-Ames Catalog, but the fraction of galaxies resembling archetypal grand-design late-type spiral galaxies is dramatically lower in the distant HDF sample.

- Description:
- We present aperture-matched point-spread function (PSF)corrected BVi'z'JH photometry and Bayesian photometric redshifts (BPZ) for objects detected in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (UDF), 8042 of which are detected at the 10 level (e.g., i'<29.01 or z'<28.43). Most of our objects are defined identically to those in the public STScI catalogs, enabling a straightforward object-by-object comparison. We have combined detections from i', z', J+H, and B+V+i'+ z' images into a single comprehensive segmentation map. Using a new program called SExSeg, we are able to force this segmentation map into SExtractor for photometric analysis. The resulting photometry is corrected for the wider NIC3 PSFs using our ColorPro software. We also correct for the ACS z'-band PSF halo. Offsets are applied to our NIC3 magnitudes, which are found to be too faint relative to the ACS fluxes. Based on BPZ spectral energy distribution (SED) fits to objects of known spectroscopic redshift, we derived corrections of -0.30+/-0.03mag in J and -0.18+/-0.04mag in H. Our offsets appear to be supported by a recent recalibration of the UDF NIC3 images combined with nonlinearity measured in NICMOS itself. The UDF reveals a large population of faint blue galaxies (presumably young starbursts), bluer than those observed in the original Hubble Deep Fields.

- Description:
- We investigate the galaxies brighter than B~20 in the field of the Perseus cluster. The galaxies were selected on Schmidt CCD images in B and Halpha in combination with SDSS images. The survey field roughly covers the virial radius of the cluster. The galaxy sample is used for analysing cluster properties, such as radial profiles, indications of sub-structure, virial mass, and viral radius and is applied for a study of the cluster galaxy population with an emphasis on morphological types and peculiarities, star formation rates and active galactic nuclei.

- Description:
- Near Infrared (H-band) surface photometry of 158 (mostly) disk galaxies belonging to the Coma Supercluster and to the A262 and Cancer clusters was obtained using the 256^2^ NICMOS3 array MAGIC attached to the 2.2m Calar Alto telescope. Magnitudes and diameters within the 21.5mag/arcsec^2^ isophote, concentration indices and total H magnitudes are derived.

- Description:
- We present near-infrared H-band (1.65{mu}m) surface photometry of 297 galaxies (mostly) in the Coma Supercluster obtained with the Arcetri NICMOS3 camera, ARNICA, mounted on the Gornergrat Infrared Telescope. Magnitudes and diameters within the 21.5mag/arcsec^2^ isophote, concentration indices, and total H magnitudes are derived. Combining these observations with those obtained similarly using the Calar Alto telescopes (Paper I, <J/A+AS/120/489>) we find a strong positive correlation between the near-infrared concentration index and the galaxy H-band luminosity, and we analyze the consequent dependence of near-infrared growth-curves on H-band luminosity. For a description of the H band photometric system, see e.g. <GCPD/59>

- Description:
- We present near-infrared H-band (1.65{mu}m) surface photometry of 558 galaxies in the Coma Supercluster and in the Virgo cluster. This data set, obtained with the Arcetri NICMOS3 camera ARNICA mounted on the Gornergrat Infrared Telescope, is aimed at complementing, with observations of mostly early-type objects, our NIR survey of spiral galaxies in these regions, presented in previous papers of this series. Magnitudes at the optical radius, total magnitudes, isophotal radii and light concentration indices are derived. We confirm the existence of a positive correlation between the near-infrared concentration index and the galaxy H-band luminosity

- Description:
- We present near-infrared (H band) surface photometry of 170 galaxies, obtained in 1997 using the Calar Alto 2.2 m telescope equipped with the NICMOS3 camera MAGIC. The majority of our targets are selected among bright members of the Virgo cluster, however galaxies in the A262 and Cancer clusters and in the Coma/A1367 supercluster are also included. This data set is aimed at complementing the NIR survey in the Virgo cluster discussed in Boselli et al. (1997A&A...324L..13B) and in the Coma Supercluster, presented in Papers I, II and III of this series. Magnitudes at the optical radius, total magnitudes, isophotal radii and light concentration indices are derived.

- Description:
- We present the distribution of a statistical sample of nearby galaxies in the {kappa}-space ({kappa1}{prop.to}logM, {kappa}2{prop.to}log(Ie)^3^*M/L, {kappa}3{prop.to}M/L). Our study is based on near-IR (H-band: {lamdba}=1.65{mu}m) observations, for the first time comprising early- and late-type systems. Our data confirm that the mean effective dynamical mass-to-light ratio M/L of the E+S0+S0a galaxies increases with increasing effective dynamical mass M, as expected from the existence of the Fundamental Plane relation. Conversely, spiral and Im/BCD galaxies show broad distribution in M/L with no detected trend of M/L with M, the former galaxies having M/L values about twice larger than the latter, on average. For all the late-type galaxies, the M/L increases with decreasing effective surface intensity Ie, consistent with the existence of the Tully-Fisher relation.
