Note (1): Known catalogs: NGC (N),IC (I), UGC (U, Nilson,1973),
UGCA (UA, Nilson,1974), DDO (D, van den Bergh,1966),
ESO/Uppsala (E, Lauberts,1982), PGC (P, Paturel et al. 1996) and
Karachentsevs' lists (KK, KKR, KKH, KKSG, KKs) usually
in chronological preference.
Note (2): Corrected for AB and for internal B band absorption in galaxy.
Note (3): Those with 2 numbers after coma are determined by correlation
"morphological type - color index"; and with 3 numbers- are
taken from 2MASS XSC catalogue.
Note (6): The NASA Extragalactic Database (NED) is the main source with
additions from the recent publications by Lauberts, 1982, VII/34,
Bremnes et al. (1998A&AS..129..313B 1998A&AS..129..313B, 1999A&AS..137..337B 1999A&AS..137..337B,
2000A&AS..141..211B 2000A&AS..141..211B), Parodi et al. (2002, Cat. J/A+A/388/29),
etc.; for some dwarf LSB galaxies their magnitudes are known with an
accuracy of ∼0.5mag only.
Note (7): From Schlegel et al. (1998ApJ...500..525S 1998ApJ...500..525S); estimates of Ag for some
galaxies situated in the Zone of Avoidance (for instance, Maffei I)
were made from their individual color.
Note (8): Method is designated as follows:
cep = from the luminosity of Cepheids;
rgb = from the luminosity of the tip of RGB;
sbf = via fluctuation of surface brightness;
bs = from the luminosity of the brightest stars;
tf = from Tully-Fisher relation;
mem = from membership in the known groups;
h = from the Hubble relation LGVel=H0*D with the mean local
Hubble parameter H0=72km/s/Mpc (Karachentsev et al.,
2004, Cat. J/AJ/127/2031), coinciding with its global value
72±8km/s/Mpc (Freedman et al., 2001ApJ...553...47F 2001ApJ...553...47F).
Note (9): SuBr=(B-Ab-Ai)+5*log(ac)+8.63,
where Ai is internal B band absroption in galaxy,
ac is angular diameter corrected for inclination.
