Survey Catalogues of Kiso Ultraviolet-Excess Galaxies
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
Our survey for KUGs (Kiso Ultraviolet-excess Galaxies) is based on the multi-colour method applied to photographic plates taken with the Kiso Schmidt telescope. In total, 8,968 KUGs were detected on 170 plates covering some 5,100 square degrees. They are listed in 17 separate catalogues, where morphological type and UV-excess degree are given for each object together with position, size, and magnitude. After the appropriate editing of multiple entries of the same object detected on different plates, we produced a merged catalogue where 8,162 KUGs were arranged in order of right ascension. The accuracy of the position of KUGs was examined using the data of 806 KUGs whose positions were measured on different plates.
