Scientific paper

There are many Infrared Astronomy Satellite (IRAS) Uppsala General Catalogue of Galaxies (UGC) and IRAS/Catalogue of Galaxies and of Clusters of Galaxies (CGCG) galaxies with measured redshifts in the Milky Way region at absolute value of b less than 15 deg. We compare the magnitudes of these galaxies with those of IRAS/UGC and IRAS/CGCG galaxies located at b = 30 deg to 45 deg having similar redshift values. Eighteen redshifts of the latter objects were newly measured by us. The brightnesses of the galaxies systematically decrease with Galactic latitude at the Milky Way region. It is shown that IRAS galaxies within cz less than 10000 km/sec are mostly detected in the regions behind the Milky Way with N(H I) less than 5 x 1021/sq cm if the redshifts are measured down to 21 mag in blue magnitude.
