J/A+AS/116/43 J/A+AS/116/43 Emission-line galaxies nearby voids. C C Popescu U Hopp H J Hagen H Elsaesser Astron. Astrophys. Suppl. Ser. 116 43 1996 1996A&AS..116...43P Galaxy catalogs Redshifts galaxies: distances and redshifts galaxies: irregular large-scale structure of universe surveys We present the observational results of our search for emission-line galaxies (ELG) towards nearby voids. In order to find ELG, we started a survey using the IIIa-J objective prism plates from the Hamburg QSO Survey. The plates are digitized and an automatic procedure was applied to select the candidates. Digitized direct plates were used to determine coordinates and to reject overlaps between spectra. The accuracy of the coordinates is +/-2". A total area of 1248deg^2^ was scanned, distributed in four different regions. All the selected objects were observed with follow-up spectroscopy. We have obtained a final sample of 203 objects, of which 196 are emission-line galaxies, four are galaxies with absorption lines and three are QSOs. Almost half of our objects are newly discovered ones and three quarters of the given redshifts are new. Our sample contains mainly high ionization galaxies and is less sensitive in the detection of low-ionization objects. The apparent magnitudes, as derived from the objective prism plates, range between 15.0<=B<=19.5. The sample is dominated by nearby galaxies, with a peak in the redshift distribution at cz=4500 km/s.

HS Name of the objects number=1 The name is built with the prefix HS (from Hamburg Survey), followed by the first four digits of the 1950.0 right ascension and declination --- Other Other name --- RAh Right ascension 1950.0 h RAm Right ascension 1950.0 min RAs Right ascension 1950.0 s DE- Declination sign --- DEd Declination 1950.0 deg DEm Declination 1950.0 arcmin DEs Declination 1950.0 arcsec z Heliocentric redshift --- Bmag B magnitude mag Bmag2 magnitude form literature, when available mag S Selection criteria number=2 Selection used to select the candidates from the objective prism spectra: E for emission candidate (first priority), and B for blue candidate (second priority) --- Ref Number of the run or code of the reference number=3 Number of the run in which the object was observed (with the prefix o - from observed) or the code of the reference, when the object had available redshift (with the prefix l - from literature). The numbers of the observing runs are the same as listed in Table 2 (see Paper). Codes for the references: A Abell galaxy 1.
