(IAAC) Edge-on???

Hi!

The following list includes the finest and brightest Edge-on-galaxies of
the northern sky.
The point is: I generated the list by the analysis of my galaxy
database. All I did: I made
a questioning that calculated the edge-on-shape from the galaxy's major
and minor diameter.
First I subtracted the minor diam. from the major diam. Then I divided
the resulting difference
through the (major diameter/100). This result expressed in percent is a
measure for the
edge-on-shape. Galaxies with values over 70 percent are fine edge-on.
So it's very easy to create custom-made lists without a bothersome and
time-consuming
search in your database.

1. NGC
2. Constellation
3. Brightness
4. Major diameter
5. Minor diameter
6. Value of Edge-on-shape
