McConnachie A.W. 2024-07-15T20:17:11Z 2012-10-06T17:04:07Z CDS support team CDS, Observatoire de Strasbourg, 11 rue de l'Universite, F-67000 Strasbourg, France cds-question@unistra.fr surveys galaxy-clusters galaxy-classification-systems redshifted We investigate the properties of photometrically selected compact groups (CGs) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. In this paper, the fourth in a series, we focus on understanding the characteristics of our observed CG sample with particular attention paid to quantifying and removing contamination from projected foreground or background galaxies. Based on a simple comparison of pairwise redshift likelihoods, we find that approximately half of CGs in the parent sample contain one or more projected (interloping) members; our final clean sample contains 4566 galaxies in 1086 CGs. 2011MNRAS.418.1409M https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/MNRAS/418/1409 Catalog Research IsServedBy TAP VizieR generic service IsServedBy Conesearch service related-to J/MNRAS/395/255 : Compact groups of galaxies in SDSS DR6 (McConnachie+, 2009) J/A+A/514/A102 : SDSS DR7 groups of galaxies (Tago+, 2010) https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.html https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/418/1409 https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/418/1409 http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/418/1409 https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/418/1409 https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/418/1409 http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/418/1409 GET text/xml+votable https://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tap Cone search capability for table J/MNRAS/418/1409/tablea1 (Properties of CGs initially presented in Paper III) https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/418/1409/tablea1? https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/418/1409/tablea1? http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/418/1409/tablea1?
