Russian catalogue of 30,642 galaxies
Morphological Catalogue of Galaxies
Alternative namesMCG

TheMorphological Catalogue of Galaxies(MCG)[1] orMorfologiceskij Katalog Galaktik, is a Russian catalogue of 30,642galaxies compiled byBoris Vorontsov-Velyaminov andV. P. Arkhipova. It is based on scrutiny of prints of thePalomar Sky Survey plates, and putatively complete to aphotographic magnitude of 15. Including galaxies to magnitude 16 would have resulted in an unmanageably large dataset.

Publication

[edit]

The catalogue was published in five parts (chapters) between 1962 and 1974,[2] the final chapter including a certain number of galaxies with a photographic magnitude above 15.[3]

  • MCG+01-02-015 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Pisces. It is an example of a void galaxy, and noted to be one of the loneliest galaxies spotted, with no other galaxy around 100 million light-years in all directions. mcg +07-07-015 or NGC1161 is a lenticular galaxy approximately 90 million light-years away from Earth in the constellation of Perseus. It was discovered, along with NGC 1160, by English astronomer William Herschel on October 7, 1784.
