cds-question@unistra.frradio-galaxiesinfrared-photometrysurveysThe highly obscured radio-bright galaxy PKS 1343-601 at Galactic coordinates of (l,b)=(309.7,+1.8) has been suspected to mark the centre of a hitherto unknown cluster in the wider Great Attractor region. As such it presents an ideal region for a search of galaxies in the near-infrared (NIR) and an in-depth study of their colours as a function of extinction. A visual search of a ~30 square-degree area centred on this radio galaxy on images of the NIR DENIS survey (IJK) revealed 83 galaxies (including two AGNs) and 39 possible candidates. Of these, 49 are also listed in the 2MASS Extended Source Catalog 2MASX. Taking the IRAS/DIRBE extinction values (Schlegel et al., 1998ApJ...500..525S) at face value, the absorption in the optical (AB) ranges from ~2mag to over 100mag across the Galactic Plane. Comparing the detections with other systematic surveys, we conclude that this search is highly complete up to the detection limits of the DENIS survey and certainly surpasses any automatic galaxy finding algorithm applied to crowded areas.2007A&A...466..481Shttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/466/481CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toJ/MNRAS/354/980 : Near-infrared survey around PKS 1343-601 (Nagayama+, 2004)B/denis : The DENIS database (DENIS Consortium, 2005)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/466/481https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/466/481http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/466/481https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/466/481https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/466/481http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/466/481GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/A+A/466/481/galaxies (Galaxies in the search area, with cross-identications)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/466/481/galaxies?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/466/481/galaxies?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/466/481/galaxies?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true201.834583-57.8688890.005555555555555556Cone search capability for table J/A+A/466/481/table3 (Galactic objects detected in the search area)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/466/481/table3?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/466/481/table3?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/466/481/table3?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true201.785417-62.0547220.0055555555555555565/10419 10422 10427-10428 6/41670-41671 41673 41675 41680 41683 41692 41697 41699 41701-41703 41705 41716-41718 41720-41722 43076-43077https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/A+A/466/481?format=asciiInfraredRadiodefaultJ/A+A/466/481/galaxiesGalaxies in the search area, with cross-identicationsKvis[0/1] Visibility in K band (G1)meta.codeintWKK?
