Title: Dependence of galaxy properties on viewing angle.
Authors: Burstein, D., Haynes, M.P.
Source: Nature. 10/10/1991, Vol. 353 Issue 6344, p515. 7p. 16 Graphs.
Subjects: Astronomy
Abstract: Presents graphical evidence that the lack of unanimity among previous studies regarding galaxies was due to the different ways in which the samples of galaxies used for the statistical analysis were chosen. Relevance of the viewing angle; `The Second Reference Catalog of Bright Galaxies'; Distance-based tests for inclination corrections; More.
