The Nearby Optical Galaxy Sample: the Local Galaxy Luminosity Function

In this paper we derive the galaxy luminosity function from the Nearby Optical Galaxy (NOG) sample, which is a nearly complete, magnitude–limited (B ≤14 mag), all–sky sample of nearby optical galaxies (∼6400 galaxies with cz < 5500 km s−1 ). For this local sample, we use galaxy distance estimates based on different peculiar velocity models. Therefore, the derivation of the luminosity function i...

The Mass Function of Nearby Galaxy Clusters

We present the distribution of virial masses for nearby galaxy clusters, as obtained from a data-set of 75 clusters, each having at least 20 galaxy members with measured redshifts within 1.5 h Mpc . After having accounted for problems of incompleteness of the data-set, we fitted a power-law to the cluster mass distribution. Subject headings: galaxies: clustering

Effect in Nearby Galaxy Clusters

We present H 0 results from Cosmic Background Imager (CBI) observations of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect (SZE) in 7 galaxy clusters, A85, A399, A401, A478, A754, A1651, and A2597. These observations are part of a program to study a complete, volume-limited sample of low-redshift (z < 0.1), X-ray selected clusters. Our focus on nearby objects allows us to study a well-defined, orientation unbias...

Thermal and Nonthermal Emission from the Nearby Galaxy M33

A multi-wavelength study of radio and IR emission from the nearby galaxy M33 is presented. We focus on three main topics: 1) energy sources of IR emission and its correlation with radio continuum emission at different spatial scales, 2) separation of thermal and nonthermal components of the radio continuum emission without assuming a constant nonthermal spectral index, and 3) distribution of th...
