... We rep ort initial results of cross-identification of extragalactic ob jects from the NASA/IPAC database and Guide Star Catalog (GSC). A distribution of galaxies on the sky is discussed as a tool for estimating the probability for a given GSC ob ject to b e of a particular typ e. 1. ... The NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED)1 contains p ositions, extensive data, and 1,023,000 cross-identifications for over 592,000 extragalactic ob jects (galaxies, quasars, and radio sources). ...

In this gallery are many images of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies which have recently been discovered and analyzed. ... The central surface brightness of this galaxy is 24.28 . Malin 2 This galaxy is another huge disk galaxy with a scale length of 15 kpc and a redshift of 15000 km/a. The high surface brightness knot in one of its spiral arms actually has the same color, luminosity and H-alpha equivalent width as the entire Large Magellanic Cloud . ...

... Identification and Analysis of Binary Star Systems using Probability Theory E. Grocheva and A. Kiselev Photographic Astrometry Department, Pulkovo Observatory, S.Petersburg, 196140, Russia, Email: gl@spb.iomail.lek.ru Abstract. Accurate identification of physical binary star systems has become of increasing interest in recent years. ... We chose 76 double stars from Pulkovo's observation program and calculated the probabilities of a random distribution for these pairs. ...

... Our resulting sample of ELGs presented in Tables 2 and 3 is not artificially biased to any specific type of galaxies. ... Since we are looking for selection of a sample of Case BCGs, it is interesting to examine how the detected BCGs are connected with Case emission-line codes. ... Altogether BCGs comprise about 60 % of all Case ELGs which display emission lines in our spectra, or about 44 % of all Case galaxies with some emission-line code. ... Among those with the code ``w'' about 40 % are BCGs. ...

... The distribution of redshifts among the DXRBS FSRQs identified so far (Figure 3) is quite similar to that of the 1 Jy and S4 samples. ... A more thorough comparison will have to await completion of our survey and the convolution of the redshift distribution with the WGACAT sky coverage. As has already been mentioned by Hook et al. (1996), selecting flat-spectrum sources is an efficient way of finding high-redshift, radio-loud quasars. ...
