“…The success of optically identifying extragalactic objects at very low latitudes is proven by the fact that less than 3% of the over 10% spectroscopically observed galaxy candidates of the catalog (Kraan-Korteweg et al 1994;Felenbok et al 1997) have a star-like signature, hence are either foreground stars or are overshadowed by foreground stars, and only a few were found to be Galactic nebulae.…”

“…For the determination of the peculiar velocity of the Local Group and the mapping of the velocity flow field, the nearby galaxy population is particularly important. We obtain individual optical spectroscopy of the brightest galaxies with the SAAO 1.9 m telescope (Kraan-Korteweg et al 1995 for the Hydra/Antlia ZOA region; Fairall et al 1998, andWoudt et al 1999 for the Crux and Great Attractor regions respectively) and 21-cm line observations of extended LSB spirals with the 64 m Parkes radio telescope (this paper), and finally, low resolution, multifiber spectroscopy for the high-density regions (Felenbok et al 1997;Woudt et al 2002). We typically measure recession velocities for about 15% of our ZOA galaxies.…”

As part of our program to map the large-scale distribution of galaxies behind the Milky Way, we used the Parkes 210 ft (64 m) radio telescope for pointed H I observations of a sample of low surface-brightness (due to heavy obscuration) spiral galaxies selected from the deep optical Zone of Avoidance (ZOA) galaxy catalog in the Hydra/Antlia region (Kraan-Korteweg 2000a). Searching a simultaneous velocity range of either 300 to 5500 km s −1 or 300 to 10 500 km s −1 to an rms level of typically 2 − 4 m Jy resulted in detections in 61 of the 139 pointings, leading to a total of 66 detections (an additional detection was made in a reference position, and two other pointings revealed two and four independent signals respectively). Except for 2 strong H I emitters identified in the shallow Zone of Avoidance H I survey (Henning et al. 2000), all H I detections are new. An analysis of the properties of the observed and detected galaxies prove that pointed H I observations of highly obscured galaxies allow the tracing of a population of nearby, intrinsically large and bright spiral galaxies that otherwise would not be recovered. The new data identified a previously unrecognized nearby group at ℓ ∼ 287. • 5, b ∼ −9. • 5, V ∼ 1700 km s −1 , the continuation of the Hydra/Antlia filament on the opposite side of the Galactic plane, and helped to delimit a distinct void in the ZOA centered at 2000 km s −1 .

“…All their observations were made at the ESO, La Silla (Chile) 3.6 m telescope, initially equipped with the multiobject facility OPTOPUS (Lund 1986), and later with MEFOS (Felenbok et al 1997). Their analyses are based on data from the literature and on 4 sets of new velocities, 311 in Bardelli et al (1994), 174 in Bardelli et al (1998), 442 in Bardelli et al (2000), then 662 for 581 new galaxies in Bardelli et al (2001), with a total of 1589 new velocities, representing 15.5% of the velocity catalogue.…”

Abstract. We present results of our wide-field redshift survey of galaxies in a 285 square degree region of the Shapley Supercluster (SSC), based on a set of 10529 velocity measurements (including 1201 new ones) on 8632 galaxies obtained from various telescopes and from the literature. Our data reveal that the main plane of the SSC (v ≈ 14500 km s −1 ) extends further than previous estimates, filling the whole extent of our survey region of 12 degrees by 30 degrees on the skyThere is also a connecting structure associated with the slightly nearer Abell 3571 cluster complex (v ≈ 12000 km s −1 ). These galaxies seem to link two previously identified sheets of galaxies and establish a connection with a third one at v = 15000 km s −1 near R.A.= 13 h . They also tend to fill the gap of galaxies between the foreground Hydra-Centaurus region and the more distant In the velocity range of the Shapley Supercluster (9000 km s −1 < cz < 18000 km s −1 ), we found redshift-space overdensities with bj < 17.5 of ≃ 5.4 over the 225 square degree central region and ≃ 3.8 in a 192 square degree region excluding rich clusters. Over the large region of our survey, we find that the intercluster galaxies make up 48 per cent of the observed galaxies in the SSC region and, accounting for the different completeness, may contribute nearly twice as much mass as the cluster galaxies. In this paper, we discuss the completeness of the velocity catalogue, the morphology of the supercluster, the global overdensity, and some properties of the individual galaxy clusters in the Supercluster.
