The Local Sphere of Influence Survey

Still under construction...

This site will become an online H-band atlas of all known galaxies within 10Mpc distance from the Local Group.

Scientific topics: BBD, surface brightness fluctuations distances, the local galaxy luminosity function, Sersic profiles, SEDs from broad band imaging (BRH), substructures in dark matter halos,

Most galaxies in the 10 Mpc sphere around our Milky Way are clustered in 7 major groups with few of them living isolated in the field. B-band images of those known galaxies are shown here:
