Abstract:We undertook a search for new dwarf galaxies in the Leo-I group using the data from the DECaLS digital sky survey. Five new presumed members of this group have been found in a wide vicinity of M 105(NGC 3379). Currently, the group has a population of 83 galaxies, 33 of which have measured radial velocities. More than half of the group members belong to early types with no signs of ongoing star formation. About a quarter of the galaxies are outside the group’s virial radius, Rv = 385 kpc. The presence of multip… Show more
