Clusters: Galaxy, Radial Velocities

Scientific paper

We present new spectral observations of 303 galaxies brighter than BJ=17.6 in the central 30deg2 of the Virgo cluster field. The galaxies were selected from two overlapping samples designed for a search for blue compact dwarf (BDC) galaxies and for a more general study of Virgo dwarf elliptical (dE) galaxies. Many of these galaxies were designated "background" (i.e., not members of the Virgo cluster) on morphological grounds by Binggeli, Sandage & Tammann in their Virgo Cluster Catalog (VCC, 1985AJ.....90.1681B). Our principal aim was to measure radial velocities of these galaxies in order to determine which were members of the cluster, looking in particular for any cluster members previously misclassified as background galaxies.
