Abstract:
A new low-dispersion objective-prism search for low-redshift (z<0.045)
emission-line galaxies (ELGs) has been carried out by the Universidad
Complutense de Madrid using the Schmidt Telescope at the Calar-Alto
Observatory. This is a continuation of the UCM Survey, which was
performed by visual selection of candidates in photographic plates via
the presence of the Hα+[N II]λ6584 blend in emission. In
making this new list we have applied an automatic procedure, fully
developed by us, for selecting and analyzing ELG candidates on the
digitized images obtained with the "Machine Automatique a Mesurer
pour l'Astronomie" (MAMA). The analyzed region of the sky covers
189deg2 in nine fields near RA=14h and 17h, DE=25°. The final
sample contains 113 candidates. Special effort has been made to obtain
a large amount of information directly from our uncalibrated plates by
using several external calibrations. The parameters obtained for the
ELG candidates allow us to study the statistical properties of the
sample.
