A catalog of morphological types in 55 rich clusters of galaxies (original) (raw)

ADS

Abstract

Data are presented from a study of 55 rich clusters of galaxies. The data include positions, morphological types, estimated total magnitudes, bulge sizes, and ellipticities for about 6000 galaxies, as determined from high scale photographic plates. Data reduction procedures are described, and a brief analysis of cluster richness, which indicates that Abell richness classes are only rough indicators of total cluster membership, is included.
