Scientific paper

A systematic search for disklike edge-on-galaxies with a diameter larger than a = 40 arcsec and a major-to-minor axis ratio a/b greater than 7 was carried out by means of the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey and the ESO/SERC survey. As a result, we present a new catalog of flat galaxies (FGC) containing 4455 objects and covering about 56 percent of the whole sky for the first time. The catalogue is assigned to study large-scale cosmic streamings and other problems of observational cosmology.
