| Averaging spectral shapes
The methods of obtaining the average spectral shape in a low statisticsregime are presented Different approaches to averaging are extensivelytested with simulated spectra, based on the ASCA responses. The issue ofbinning up the spectrum before fitting is discussed together with thechoice of statistic used to model the spectral shape. The best resultsare obtained with methods in which input data are represented byprobability density functions. Application of weights, representing thecoverage between the input and output bins, slightly improves theresolution of averaging.
| An image database. II. Catalogue between δ=-30deg and δ=70deg.
A preliminary list of 68.040 galaxies was built from extraction of35.841 digitized images of the Palomar Sky Survey (Paper I). For eachgalaxy, the basic parameters are obtained: coordinates, diameter, axisratio, total magnitude, position angle. On this preliminary list, weapply severe selection rules to get a catalog of 28.000 galaxies, wellidentified and well documented. For each parameter, a comparison is madewith standard measurements. The accuracy of the raw photometricparameters is quite good despite of the simplicity of the method.Without any local correction, the standard error on the total magnitudeis about 0.5 magnitude up to a total magnitude of B_T_=17. Significantsecondary effects are detected concerning the magnitudes: distance toplate center effect and air-mass effect.
| Galaxy Properties at the North Galactic Pole. I. Photometric Properties on Large Spatial Scales
A two-color study of the galaxies detected on POSS-I in a 289 squaredegree region centered on the North Galactic Pole is presented. We use avariety of mapping techniques to characterize the large-scale spatialdistribution of galaxies. The depth and sample size of this new surveyallows, for the first time, the isolation of large photometricsubsamples of galaxies in high- and low-density environments on thescale of superclusters. Our principal finding is a statisticallysignificant difference between the mean photometric properties of thesesubsamples in the sense that galaxies in the high-density Coma andfilament environments have redder colors and larger concentrationindices than galaxies drawn from low-density interfilament regions.These results are in accord with the known morphology-density relation.Thus, appropriately chosen photometric and morphological parameters, inconcert with a galaxy surface density map, can be used to selectstructures from the projected galaxy distribution which correspond toregions of high density. An illustration of this point is our discoveryof a concentration of blue galaxies identified in our maps near the coreof the Coma cluster. This feature is comprised of early-type galaxieswhich exhibit signs of current or recent star formation. These resultsare predicated on relations between morphological type and photometricparameters derived from APS scans of POSS-I. We therefore discuss theimage calibration procedures used to compile our catalog of physicallysignificant photometric parameters. We demonstrate the morphologicaltype dependence among quantities such as mean color and imageconcentration index, and the lack of such a dependence for mean surfacebrightness.
| Corrections and additions to the third reference catalogue of bright galaxies
List of corrections and additions to the Third Reference Catalogue ofBright Galaxies (RC3) are given. The corrected version of the catalogue(RC3.9b), dated April 1994, is currently available through the nationaldata centers.
| 21 centimeter study of spiral galaxies in clusters. III - Neutral gas content, star formation, and radio continuum properties
21 cm line observations of 112 galaxies in seven clusters and inrelatively isolated regions in the Coma 'wall' were secured with theArecibo telescope. These, combined with an available data base, are usedto discuss the relations between the neutral gas column density, thestar formation rate, the FIR, and the radio continuum emission in spiralgalaxies inside and outside rich clusters. It is found thathydrogen-deficient cluster galaxies have star formation rates similar tounperturbed isolated galaxies, confirming that atomic gas ablation inclusters does not alter the supply of molecular gas. The extended radiocontinuum emission of about 30 percent of cluster spirals is higher thanthat of isolated galaxies of similar type at any given gas surfacedensity. A significant fraction of these galaxies is found perturbed intheir H I, optical, and radio continuum morphology consistent with thehypothesis that ram pressure, along with H I ablation, could producemajor morphological disturbances as well as enhancements in the diffusesynchrotron emission due to magnetic field compression.
| 21 centimeter study of spiral galaxies in the Coma supercluster. II - Evidence for ongoing gas stripping in five cluster galaxies
High-sensitivity 21 cm observations of 73 galaxies in the Comasupercluster are presented. Seventeen new redshifts are reported. Threegalaxies in A1367 and two in the Coma Cluster are found with remarkablyasymmetrical H I spectra indicating uneven gas distribution in theirdisks. This unstable configuration is interpreted as being due toongoing dynamical gas stripping taking place on time scales shorter thanthose required for differential rotation to redistribute the gas, i.e.,a few times 100 million yr. This suggests that spiral galaxies arecontinuously supplied to the clusters from the surrounding supercluster.
| Study of a field in the Coma supercluster. I - Automated galaxies count
A IIIaJ Palomar Schmidt plate of the eastern end of a filament ofgalaxies found by Fontanelli (1984) in the Coma cluster region has beenexamined. The galaxy selection was performed using a classical Bayesianclassification based on the diagram of integrated density versus thearea, allowing all the nonstellar objects to be identified. Coordinates,amplitudes, areas in pixels, and morphological types are given for 7582galaxies. A real-time reduction technique for image segmentation is usedto identify galaxy condensations, and estimations of the parameters,position, axis, and orientation of these condensations are presented.
| Radio continuum survey of the Coma/A1367 supercluster. II - 1.5 GHz observations of 396 CGCG galaxies
1.5 GHz VLA radio continuum observations of 396 relatively isolated CGCGgalaxies in the Coma/A1367 supercluster yielded the detection of 95objects. These observations, added to the ones presented in previouspapers, form a complete sample of optically selected objects with m(p)equal to or less than 15.3. Two wide-angle-tailed sources have beenfound in smaller groups within the supercluster.
| Redshifts for 115 galaxies near the equator
New redshifts for 115 bright galaxies located near the celestial equatorare reported. The spectra were observed with a blue-sensitivephoton-counting Reticon on the 100-in. DuPont telescope, and theredshifts were derived using the data-analysis system developed for theCfA Redshift Survey. Comparisons with other measured redshifts suggestthat these data are similar in quality to the redshifts measured at Mt.Hopkins for the CfA Redshift Survey; the velocity zero point is good to10 or 15 km/s, with a typical error of 35 km/s for the individualmeasurements.
