Abstract:
The ultraviolet (UV) catalog of nearby galaxies compiled by Gil de Paz
et al. (2007, J/ApJS/173/185) presents the integrated photometry and
surface brightness profiles for 1034 nearby galaxies observed by
GALEX. We provide an updated catalog of 4138 nearby galaxies based on
the latest General Release (GR6/GR7) of GALEX. These galaxies are
selected from HyperLeda with apparent diameters larger than 1'. From
the surface brightness profiles accurately measured using the deep NUV
and FUV images, we have calculated the asymptotic magnitudes, aperture
(D25) magnitudes, colors, structural parameters (effective radii and
concentration indices), luminosities, and effective surface brightness
for these galaxies. Archival optical and infrared photometry from
HyperLeda, 2MASS, and IRAS are also integrated into the catalog. Our
parameter measurements and some analyses are consistent with those of
Paz et al. The (FUV-K) color provides a good criterion to distinguish
between early- and late-type galaxies, which can be improved further
using the concentration indices. The IRX-β relation is
reformulated with our UV-selected nearby galaxies.
