Third Reference Catalog of Bright Galaxies

Description

This table contains the machine-readable version of the Third Reference Catalogue of Bright Galaxies (RC3) by G. de Vaucouleurs, A. de Vacouleurs, H.G. Corwin, R.J. Buta, P. Fouque, and G. Paturel, originally published by Springer-Verlag in 1991, and including some corrections and additions made by Corwin et al. (1994, AJ, 108, 2128). Only brief parameter descriptions are given in this help file. Detailed information about, for example, how certain quantities were derived, or exactly what a given code means, can be found in the printed version of RC3. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2007 based on CDS table VII/155/rc3, and replaced an earlier version which did not contain the corrections made by Corwin et al. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
