The Virgo Cluster Catalog (VCC)

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The present catalog of 2096 galaxies within an area of about 140{deg}^2^ approximately centered on the Virgo cluster should be an essentially complete listing of all certain and possible cluster members, independent of morphological type.

Description

Cluster membership is essentially decided by galaxy morphology; for giants and the rare class of high surface brightness dwarfs, membership rests on velocity data. While 1277 of the catalog entries are considered members of the Virgo cluster, 574 are possible members and 245 appear to be background Zwicky galaxies.
