Activity type of galaxies in HyperLeda
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 August 2006
Abstract
The HyperLeda database (!http://leda.univ-lyon1.fr) is a tool to study the physics of galaxies. It is based on compilations of heterogeneous data (from large surveys and literature) which are cross-identified and homogenized to produce a uniform representation of the galaxies. We have added in the database a characterization of the nuclear and starburst activity from the Véron and Véron catalogue.
It is now possible to retrieve an activity type for the HyperLeda galaxies having this attribute, and to select list of objects from constraints on activity type. For example, one may select all Sy2 galaxies within some magnitude limits and/or redshift.
