Abstract:
We describe the Sternberg Astronomical Institute (SAI) catalog of
supernovae. We show that the radial distributions of type-Ia, type-Ibc
and type-II supernovae differ in the central parts of spiral galaxies
and are similar in their outer regions, while the radial distribution
of type-Ia supernovae in elliptical galaxies differs that in spiral
and lenticular galaxies. We give a list a supernovae that are farthest
from the galactic centers, estimate their relative expulsion rate, and
discuss their possible origins.
Description:
The current version contains data on 2780 extragalactic supernovae
(SNe) discovered from 1885 until January 6, 2004 and on their parent
galaxies. SNe are ordered by Right Ascension of their parent galaxies.
Data for parent galaxies were compiled from the following catalogues:
RC3 (de Vaucouleurs et al., 1991, Cat. VII/155);
UGC (Nilson, 1973. Cat. VII/26);
PGC (Paturel et al., 1989, Cat. VII/119);
MCG (Vorontsov-Velyaminov et al., 1962-1968, Cat. VII/62, VII/100);
ESO (Lauberts, 1982, Cat. VII/34);
CfA (Huchra et al., 1994, see Cat VII/193), and from
van den Bergh (1994, Cat. J/ApJS/92/219).
Main source of morphological types, major diameters and axial ratios
was the RC3; the data from other sources have been reduced to the
system of RC3. Photographic magnitudes of galaxies were adopted from
the UGC and the PGC together with individual data from the literature.
The sources of recession velocities or cz values were the RC3, the
CfA, the PGC and IAU Circulars. Position angles were taken from the
RC3, UGC and the ESO catalogues, and inclination angles were mainly
derived from data in RC3 according to Holmberg (1958MeLu2.136....1H 1958MeLu2.136....1H).
Some data for SNe and parent galaxies were adopted from GCVS
(Samus et al., 1995, Cat. II/205)
