Near infrared surface photometry of late-type Virgo cluster galaxies
Abstract
Near Infrared (K' band) surface photometry has been obtained for 102 (88 late-type) Virgo cluster galaxies. A subset of 20 galaxies was also imaged in the H band. Magnitudes and diameters within the 21.5 and 22.0 mag arcsec$^{-2}$ isophote, concentration indices and total H and K' magnitudes are derived. Basic statistical properties of a complete sample of spiral galaxies spanning the range 6.3 < K'_T < 13.5 are given. Tables 3, 5 and 6 are only available in electronic form at the CDS via anonymous ftp to cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr (130.79.128.5) or via http://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/Abstract.html} Based on observations taken at the Calar Alto Observatory, operated by the Max-Planck-Institut fur Astronomie (Heidelberg) jointly with the Spanish National Commission for Astronomy.
