The Revised Flat Galaxy Catalogue
Abstract
We present a new improved and completed version of the Flat Galaxy Catalogue (FGC) named the Revised Flat Galaxy Catalogue (RFGC) containing 4236 thin edge-on spiral galaxies and covering the whole sky. The Catalogue is intended to study large-scale cosmic streamings as well as other problems of observational cosmology. The dipole moment of distribution of the RFGC galaxies (l = 273 degr; b =+19 degr) lies within statistical errors (+/-10 degr) in the direction of the Local Group motion towards the Microwave Background Radiation (MBR).
