cds-question@unistra.frgalaxiesultraviolet-astronomysurveysapparent-magnitudeWe present results from a GALEX ultraviolet (UV) survey of a complete sample of 390 galaxies within ~11Mpc of the Milky Way. The UV data are a key component of the composite Local Volume Legacy, an ultraviolet-to-infrared imaging program designed to provide an inventory of dust and star formation in nearby spiral and irregular galaxies. The ensemble data set is an especially valuable resource for studying star formation in dwarf galaxies, which comprise over 80% of the sample. We describe the GALEX survey programs that obtained the data and provide a catalog of far-UV (~1500{AA}) and near-UV (~2200{AA}) integrated photometry. General UV properties of the sample are briefly discussed. We compute two measures of the global star formation efficiency, the star formation rate (SFR) per unit HI gas mass, and the SFR per unit stellar mass, to illustrate the significant differences that can arise in our understanding of dwarf galaxies when the FUV is used to measure the SFR instead of H{alpha}.2011ApJS..192....6Lhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJS/192/6CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toJ/ApJS/178/247 : H{alpha} and [NII] survey in local 11 Mpc (Kennicutt+, 2008)J/ApJS/173/185 : GALEX ultraviolet atlas of nearby galaxies (Gil de Paz+,J/ApJS/173/441 : UV-Luminous galaxies discovered by GALEX (Hoopes+, 2007)J/MNRAS/300/303 : UV-selected galaxy redshift survey (Treyer+, 1998)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJS/192/6https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJS/192/6http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJS/192/6https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJS/192/6https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJS/192/6http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJS/192/6GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/ApJS/192/6/sample (GALEX observations of local volume galaxies (Table 1), aperture and asymptotic magnitudes (Table 2 of the paper))https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/192/6/sample?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/192/6/sample?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJS/192/6/sample?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true0.0937539.4955560.0055555555555555566/393 396 684 739 764 816 941 955 1007 1679 2031 2121 2130 2155 2169 2282 2320 2324 2332-2333 2372 2377 2382-2383 2409 2411 2622 2709 3042 3299 3381 3389 3483 3506 3543 3558 4181 4313 4410 4419 4511 4522 4537 4650 5061 5067 5116 5132 5142 5174 5202-5203 5230 5283 5285 5287 5329 5482 5489 5504 5534 5572 5584 5607 5633 5635-5636 5708 5844 5862 5906 5935 5978 5995 6204 6399 6419 6502 6560 6604-6605 6623 6649 6752 6773 6791 6921 6981 7239 7471 7523 7530 7577 7582 7599-7600 7602-7604 7606-7607 7618 7622 7624 7649-7650 7743 7769 7786 7799 7878 7946 7956 7970 8028 8120 8524 8908 9954 10153 10265 10532 10538 10561 10587 10601 10607 10627 10656 10659 10689 10704 10755 10761-10762 10767 10787 10793 10798-10800 10809-10810 10818 10840-10841 10847 10856 10881 10888 10896-10898 10900-10901 10905 10908 10910-10911 10930 10935 10941 10954 10959 10970 10976-10977 10979 10986 10998-10999 11006 11019 11027 11030-11031 11041 11043 11045 11084 11092 11120 11127 11140 11143 11217 11227 11270 11434 11444 11448 11450 11639 11681 11696 11717 11719 11933 11944 11961 11965 12047 12199 13637 13667-13668 13672 13944 15558 15560 15585 15590 15592 15594-15595 16016 16098 16414 16416 16441 16519 16544 16580 16595 16605 16655 16682 16687 16695 16697 16701 16744 16776 16779 16833 17165 18032 18041 18378 18398 18419 18429 19717 19779 19833 19990 20344 20400 20476 20510 20532 20896 21026-21027 21089 21286 21362 22495 22949 22995 23566 24912 24952 24956 25017 25083 26047 26323 26803 26814 26858 26989 27030 27055 27064 27351 27375 27383 27465 27512 27514 27518 27568 27591 27604 27643 27926 28015 28077 28087 28091 28147 28149 28167 28172-28173 28178 28184 28200 28221 28451 28468 28476 28493 28510 28535 28608 28610 28620 28631 28636-28637 28666 29699 29718 33096 33151 33193 33265 33295 33571 33655-33656 33685 33832 33927 33966 33982 33986 34138 34189 34251 34273 34297 34302 34335 34341 34401 34403-34404 34471 34476 34478 34501 34641 34755 34810 35206 35214 35243 35482 35514 35536 36164 36172 36974 37437 38380 38390 38722 38814 38821 38829 38832 38834 38841 38846 38872 38876 38941 39071 39127 39447 40124 40156 40158 40199 40323 40328 40358 41122 41432 41586 41917 41946 41949 41987 42117 43222 43231 43233 43262 43293 43333 43420 43430 43454 43499 43605 43706 43763 43797 43809 43874 43878 43881 43883-43884 43925 43972 45305 45367 45674 45732 45745 45748 45777 45914 45937 46314 46339 46460 46545 46549 46597 47118 489427.447298006782415e-19 1.4134638842407062e-18https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/ApJS/192/6?format=asciiUVdefaultJ/ApJS/192/6/sampleGALEX observations of local volume galaxies (Table 1), aperture and asymptotic magnitudes (Table 2 of the paper)S[S] Supplement galaxy (G1)meta.id;meta.datasetcharSimbadNameSimbad column added by the CDSmeta.idcharnullableLVL[0/1] in Spitzer Local Volume Legacy program (1=yes, 0=no)meta.codeinttNUV?
