VII/196 Shakhbazian compact groups of galaxies (Stoll+ 1993-97) ================================================================================ Photometry of Shakhbazyan Groups I-VIII Stoll D., Tiersch H., Braun M., Cordis L. =1993AN....314..225S =1993AN....314..317S =1994AN....315...11S =1994AN....315...97S =1996AN....317..239S =1996AN....317..315S =1996AN....317..383S =1997AN....318....7S =1997AN....318...89S =1997AN....318..149S ================================================================================ ADC_Keywords: Clusters, galaxy ; Galaxies, photometry Keywords: galaxies - galaxy groups - Shakhbazian groups Description: The largest survey of compact galaxy groups was published by Shakhbazian et al. (see cat. ). This catalogue provides accurate positions of individual galaxies in the groups; photometrical properties of the Southern sky (delta not greater than +2{deg}30') are evaluated on the basis of the COSMOS/UKST catalog of the Southern sky. The catalogue contains 373 groups; this number differs from the number in Shakhbazian's list (377 groups) by the following: => No data for groups 001 (there were already published data by other authors), 206 (could not be re-identified) 241 (could not be re-identified) 252 (is identical with 214), 301 (could not be re-identified) 353 (could not be re-identified) => Group 328 was published twice (in North and South) => Group 340 was divided in two parts (340 and 340a), according to Bettoni and Fasano ([BF95]=1995AJ....109...32B) File Summary: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FileName Lrecl Records Explanations -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ReadMe 80 .

The 'H' indicates positions adopted from the Hamburg Quasar Survey, and the question mark (?) indicates an inaccurate position (a note generally follows) Note (3): when only the velocity was given in the paper, the redshift was computed with z = V / 299792 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Byte-by-byte Description of file: south.dat -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bytes Format Units Label Explanations -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1- 3 I3 --- Shk Group name (Shakhbazian+, Cat. ) 5- 6 A2 --- Object Object designation within group 7 A1 --- m_Object [ab] Multiplicity index on Object 9- 10 I2 h RAh Right ascension (J2000) 12- 13 I2 min RAm Right ascension (J2000) 15- 18 F4.1 s RAs Right ascension (J2000) 20 A1 --- DE- Declination sign 21- 22 I2 deg DEd Declination (J2000) 24- 25 I2 arcmin DEm Declination (J2000) 27- 28 I2 arcsec DEs Declination (J2000) 30- 35 F6.4 arcmin a Semi-major axis 37- 40 F4.2 --- e Ellipticity (1-b/a) of the object 42- 44 I3 deg PA ?=999 Position angle (East to North) 46- 50 F5.2 mag bjg Photographic b_jg_ magnitude if the object is a galaxy 52- 56 F5.2 mag bjs Photographic b_js_ magnitude if the object is a star 58- 62 I5 pix Area Number of pixels within the image 64 A1 --- Class [SGF] Star/Galaxy/Faint (not classifiable) 66- 70 A5 --- Notes Individual notes detailed in file "notes.dat" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Byte-by-byte Description of file: notes.dat -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bytes Format Units Label Explanations -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2- 3 I2 --- NoteNo Note number, repeated for continuation lines 5- 80 A76 --- Text Text of note -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Acknowledgements: Detlef Stoll The catalogue was also numbered a177 in H.
