Zwicky Galaxy Catalog
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
This document describes a computer version of that part of the CGCG (Zwicky et al. 1961-68) containing all the alphanumeric information for galaxies.
Description
All known errors found by Zwicky and many others are corrected as well as erroneous quotations from other catalogs (Shapley & Ames 1932, Bigay 1951, Pettit 1954, Humason et al. 1956, Holmberg 1958). It is an illusion to consider all the errors are found.
There are some misprints even in the most extended list of misprints (Paturel et al. 1991). We have compiled two files: zwi_gal.ori and zwi_gal.add. The first one contains the original information from CGCG for galaxies.

The second one contains the data from above mentioned other catalogs given in CGCG. We have made no attempts to supply the catalog with any new information. A detailed comparison with the machine-readable version of Zwicky galaxies prepared by R.S. Hill (NSSDC ADC #7049 or CDS VII/49) was performed.
Our version contains more data on individual galaxies - designation, description, magnitudes, velocity. All galaxies in the Coma center are included. However Hill's version contains data for Zwicky fields, Palomar Sky Survey plate number as well as Mead-Luyten-Palomar number.
There are 27837 different galaxies and 29418 entries in CGCG.
