Abstract:
We present 546 optical redshifts obtained for galaxies in the region
of the Horologium-Reticulum supercluster (HRS) using the 6° field
(6dF) multifiber spectrograph on the UK Schmidt Telescope at the
Anglo-Australian Observatory. The HRS covers an area of more than
12°x12° on the sky centered at approximately RA=03h19m,
DE=-50°02'.
Description:
Observations covering the 12°x14° area in the HRS were carried
out on the 1.2m UK Schmidt Telescope (UKST) of the Anglo-Australian
Observatory (AAO) in 2002 October and November. All observations were
carried out as part of the 6dF Galaxy Survey (6dFGS) program being
undertaken by the AAO (Wakamatsu et al. 2003ASPC..289...97W 2003ASPC..289...97W).
