VizieR Online Data Catalog: 6dF galaxy survey final redshift release (Jones+, 2009)
Abstract
The final redshift release of the 6dF Galaxy Survey (6dFGS) is a combined redshift and peculiar velocity survey over the southern sky (|b|>10°). Its 136304 spectra have yielded 110256 new extragalactic redshifts and a new catalogue of 125071 galaxies making near-complete samples with limits in (K, H, J, rF, bJ) (12.65, 12.95, 13.75, 15.60, 16.75). The median redshift of the survey is 0.053.
The catalog includes basic data for the galaxies in the 6dFGS with redshifts, using the best 6dFGS redshifts (Q=3 or 4) plus available redshifts from SDSS, 2dFGRS and ZCAT (124647 entries in all). It supersedes the previous DR2 version (Cat. VII/249). The URL of the 6dFGS data base is: http://www-wfau.roe.ac.uk/6dFGS (2 data files).- Publication:
