cds-question@unistra.frgalaxiesphotometryWe present a catalog of 1268 galaxies, essentially complete to B<=17.0, found by scanning glass copies of several fields of the original Palomar Sky Survey using the Minnesota Automated Plate Scanner in its isodensitometric mode (as opposed to the threshold densitometric mode used in the APS Catalog of the POSS I). In addition to the different scanning mode, we have employed a different star-galaxy separation method and have visually inspected POSS prints to verify that each image remaining in the catalog is non-stellar. The scanned fields are distributed generally in two areas, one around the outskirts of the Virgo Cluster, the other toward the antipode of the cluster (but still in the northern celestial hemisphere). The catalog gives the position of the center of each galaxy; estimates of the blue and red magnitudes within the outermost threshold crossing and of the blue magnitude extrapolated to zero surface brightness; blue and red diameters of four ellipses fit to the four threshold crossings (approximately 23.8, 23.6, 23.2, and 22.7 mag per square arcsec in blue, and 22.5, 22.4, 21.5 and 21.2 mag per square arcsec in red), and the ellipticities of those four ellipses. The catalog has served as a base from which to draw targets for a Tully-Fisher study of the Virgocentric infall velocity of the Local Group.1996ApJ...473..822Hhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJ/473/822CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicehttps://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/473/822https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/473/822http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/473/822https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/473/822https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/473/822http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/473/822GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/ApJ/473/822/table3 (Galaxies found by MAPS)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/473/822/table3?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/473/822/table3?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/473/822/table3?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true342.98264915.6785080.0055555555555555565/4537 4539 4542 4543 4555 4558 4581 4596 4597 4598 4870 4876 4879 4881 4883 4884 4886 5024 6579 6581 6582 6589 6626 6897 6900 6917 6918 6927 6930 6937 6938 6939 6942 6960 6961 6963 6964 7056 7057 7059 6/642 648 650 651 673 674 675 676 678 679 680 681 682 18047 18136 18140 18142 18143 18147 18152 18154 18155 18160 18162 18163 18166 18167 18187 18202 18208 18209 18211 18212 18214 18215 18216 18217 18219 18226 18227 18236 18238 18297 18299 18302 18304 18305 18307 18309 18310 18311 18313 18314 18316 18317 18320 18322 18328 18329 18330 18332 18333 18336 18337 18339 18340 18342 18345 18346 18370 18374 18375 18381 18383 18396 18398 18417 18420 18422 18423 18428 18429 18807 18813 19471 19474 19476 19478 19484 19486 19487 19489 19490 19491 19493 19494 19496 19497 19498 19508 19510 19511 19513 19521 19522 19523 19528 19529 19530 19540 19541 19542 19552 19554 19557 19558 19560 19562 19604 19605 20002 20003 20008 20009 20011 20012 20014 20015 20026 20100 20101 20112 26233 26234 26235 26236 26238 26239 26287 26299 26302 26309 26310 26311 26321 26322 26323 26332 26333 26334 26353 26354 26355 26361 26364 26498 26499 26508 26510 26528 26530 27503 27514 27596 27597 27599 27608 27652 27653 27654 27661 27663 27664 27676 27677 27678 27685 27697 27698 27699 27700 27702 27703 27704 27705 27714 27726 27745 27746 27747 27762 27774 27797 27848 27849 27851 27860 27862 27864 27876 27883 27886 27887 28242 28243 28248 28249 28250https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/ApJ/473/822?format=asciiOpticaldefaultJ/ApJ/473/822/table3Galaxies found by MAPSrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
