- Description:
- We compile 1113 redshifts (648 new measurements, 465 from the literature) for Zwicky catalog galaxies (Cat. <VII/4>) in the region (-3.5{deg}<={delta}<=8.5{deg}, 11.5h<={alpha}<=13.5h). We include redshifts for 114 component objects in 78 Zwicky catalog multiplets. The redshift survey in this region is 99.5% complete to the Zwicky catalog limit, m_Zw_=15.7. It is 99.9% complete to m_Zw_=15.5, the CfA Redshift Survey (CfA2) magnitude limit. The survey region is adjacent to the northern portion of CfA2, overlaps the northernmost slice of the Las Campanas Redshift Survey (Cat. <VII/203>), includes the southern extent of the Virgo Cluster, and is roughly centered on the QSO 3C 273. As in other portions of the Zwicky catalog, bright and faint galaxies trace the same large-scale structure.

- Description:
- We present a catalog of detailed visual classifications for 14034 galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 4 (DR4, Cat. <II/267>). Our sample includes nearly all spectroscopically targeted galaxies in the redshift range 0.01<z<0.1 down to an apparent extinction-corrected limit of g<16mag. In addition to T-Types, we record the existence of bars, rings, lenses, tails, warps, dust lanes, arm flocculence, and multiplicity. This sample defines a comprehensive local galaxy sample which we will use in future papers to study low-redshift morphology. It will also prove useful for calibrating automated galaxy classification algorithms. In this paper, we describe the classification methodology used, detail the systematics and biases of our sample, and summarize the overall statistical properties of the sample, noting the most obvious trends that are relevant for general comparisons of our catalog with previously published work.

- Detection of fast HI outflow in Mrk231
- Short Name:

- Description:
- We present the detection, performed with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) and the Karl Jansky Very Large Array (VLA), of a fast HI 21-cm outflow in the ultra-luminous infrared galaxy Mrk 231. The outflow is observed as shallow HI absorption blueshifted ~1300 km/s with respect to the systemic velocity and located against the inner kpc of the radio source. The outflowing gas has an estimated column density between 5 and 15x10^18^Tspin.cm^-2^. We derive the Tspin to lie in the range 400-2000 K and the corresponding HI densities are n_HI_~10-100cm^-3^. We also obtained deeper continuum images than previously available. They confirm the complex structure of the radio continuum originating both from the AGN and star formation. At the resolution obtained with the VLA (~1-arcsec) we do not see a kpc-scale jet. Instead, we detect a plateau of emission, likely due to star formation, surrounding the bright nuclear region. We also detect a poorly collimated bridge which may represent the channel feeding the southern lobe. The unprecedented depth of the low-resolution WSRT image reveals radio emission extending 50-arcsec (43kpc) to the south and 20arcsec (17kpc) to the north.

- Description:
- The 6dF Galaxy Survey is measuring around 150000 redshifts and 15000 peculiar velocities from galaxies over the southern sky at |b|>10{deg}. When complete, it will be the largest survey of its kind by more than an order of magnitude. A total of 83014 sources now have their spectra, redshifts, and near-infrared and optical photometry available online and searchable through an Structured Query Language at www.wfau.roe.ac.uk/6dFGS/ .

- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The final redshift release of the 6dF Galaxy Survey (6dFGS) is a combined redshift and peculiar velocity survey over the southern sky (|b|>10{deg}). Its 136304 spectra have yielded 110256 new extragalactic redshifts and a new catalogue of 125071 galaxies making near-complete samples with limits in (K, H, J, rF, bJ) (12.65, 12.95, 13.75, 15.60, 16.75). The median redshift of the survey is 0.053. The catalog includes basic data for the galaxies in the 6dFGS with redshifts, using the best 6dFGS redshifts (Q=3 or 4) plus available redshifts from SDSS, 2dFGRS and ZCAT (124647 entries in all). It supersedes the previous DR2 version (Cat. VII/249). The URL of the 6dFGS data base is: http://www-wfau.roe.ac.uk/6dFGS

- 6dF Galaxy Survey: Fundamental Plane data
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/443/1231
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report the 6dFGS Fundamental Plane (6dFGSv) catalogue that is used to estimate distances and peculiar velocities for nearly 9000 early-type galaxies in the local (z<0.055) universe. Velocity dispersions are derived by cross-correlation from 6dF V-band spectra with typical S/N of 12.9{AA}^-1^ for a sample of 11315 galaxies; the median velocity dispersion is 163km/s and the median measurement error is 12.9 per cent. The photometric Fundamental Plane (FP) parameters (effective radii and surface brightnesses) are determined from the JHK 2MASS images for 11102 galaxies. Comparison of the independent J- and K-band measurements implies that the average uncertainty in X_FP_, the combined photometric parameter that enters the FP, is 0.013dex (3 per cent) for each band. Visual classification of morphologies was used to select a sample of nearly 9000 early-type galaxies that form 6dFGSv. This catalogue has been used to study the effects of stellar populations on galaxy scaling relations, to investigate the variation of the FP with environment and galaxy morphology, to explore trends in stellar populations through, along and across the FP, and to map and analyse the local peculiar velocity field.

- Description:
- The clustering properties of local, S_1.4GHz_>=1mJy, radio sources are investigated for a sample of 820 objects drawn from the joint use of the Faint Images of the Radio Sky at 20cm (FIRST, <VIII/71>) and 2dF Galaxy Redshift surveys (<VII/223>, <VII/226>). To this aim, we present 271 new b_J_<=19.45mag spectroscopic counterparts of FIRST radio sources to be added to those already introduced in our previous paper.

- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/372/425
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a spectroscopic survey of almost 15000 candidate intermediate-redshift luminous red galaxies (LRGs) brighter than i=19.8, observed with 2dF on the Anglo-Australian Telescope. The targets were selected photometrically from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and lie along two narrow equatorial strips covering 180deg^2^. Reliable redshifts were obtained for 92 per cent of the targets and the selection is very efficient: over 90 per cent have 0.45<z<0.8. More than 80 per cent of the ~11000 red galaxies have pure absorption-line spectra consistent with a passively evolving old stellar population. The redshift, photometric and spatial distributions of the LRGs are described. The 2SLAQ data will be released publicly from mid-2006, providing a powerful resource for observational cosmology and the study of galaxy evolution.

- Description:
- We have performed a spectroscopic study of globular clusters (GCs) in the nearest giant elliptical NGC 5128 using the 2dF facility at the Anglo-Australian Telescope. We obtained integrated optical spectra for a total of 254 GCs, 79 of which are newly confirmed on the basis of their radial velocities and spectra. In addition, we obtained an integrated spectrum of the galaxy starlight along the southern major axis.

- Description:
- We established an accurate comparison between observationally and theoretically estimated major merger rates over a large range of mass (logM_bar_/M_{sun}_=9.9-11.4) and redshift (z=0.7-1.6). For this, we combined a new estimate of the merger rate from an exhaustive count of pairs within the virial radius of massive galaxies at z~1.265 and cross-validated with their morphology, with estimates from the morpho-kinematic analysis of two other samples. Theoretical predictions were estimated using semi-empirical models with inputs matching the properties of the observed samples, while specific visibility time-scales scaled to the observed samples were used. Both theory and observations are found to agree within 30 per cent of the observed value, which provides strong support to the hierarchical assembly of galaxies over the probed ranges of mass and redshift. Here, we find that ~60 per cent of population of local massive (M_stellar_=10^10.3-11.6^M_{sun}_) galaxies would have undergone a wet major merger since z=1.5, consistently with previous studies. Such recent mergers are expected to result in the (re-)formation of a significant fraction of local disc galaxies.
