cds-question@unistra.frgalaxiesultraviolet-sourcesWe describe and present the first results of a UV-bright galaxy survey using the Montreal-Cambridge-Tololo (MCT) plate collection. Visual inspection of 57 CTIO Curtis Schmidt plates, covering more than 1300 sq. deg., has resulted in the identification of 95 UV-bright galaxies brighter than B = 15.5. Even though 80% of these objects are IRAS sources, barely 20% have their nature already established. The initial result of our survey shows that the bulk of our UV-bright candidates are narrow emission-line galaxies commonly known as starburst or HII galaxies. The fraction of AGNs found is somewhat less than 10%, but comparable to what has been found by the Markarian survey. We expect to find approximately 500 UV-bright galaxies in the 7000 sq. deg. of The MCT Survey with b < -40 deg. As we go further south, a large number of bright new objects will be discovered.1993AJ....105...35Chttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/105/35CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toJ/AJ/108/405 : Montreal Blue Galaxy Survey.
