1.65 μm (H-band) surface photometry of galaxies. III. observations of 558 galaxies with the TIRGO 1.5 m telescope
We present near-infrared H-band (1.65 μm ) surface photometry of 558galaxies in the Coma Supercluster and in the Virgo cluster. This dataset, obtained with the Arcetri NICMOS3 camera ARNICA mounted on theGornergrat Infrared Telescope, is aimed at complementing, withobservations of mostly early-type objects, our NIR survey of spiralgalaxies in these regions, presented in previous papers of this series.Magnitudes at the optical radius, total magnitudes, isophotal radii andlight concentration indices are derived. We confirm the existence of apositive correlation between the near-infrared concentration index andthe galaxy H-band luminosity Based on observations taken at TIRGO(Gornergrat, Switzerland). TIRGO is operated by CAISMI-CNR, Arcetri,Firenze, Italy.

| 1.65 μm (H-band) surface photometry of galaxies. V. Profile decomposition of 1157 galaxies
We present near-infrared H-band (1.65 μm) surface brightness profiledecomposition for 1157 galaxies in five nearby clusters of galaxies:Coma, A1367, Virgo, A262 and Cancer, and in the bridge between Coma andA1367 in the ``Great Wall". The optically selected (mpg≤16.0) sample is representative of all Hubble types, from E to Irr+BCD,except dE and of significantly different environments, spanning fromisolated regions to rich clusters of galaxies. We model the surfacebrightness profiles with a de Vaucouleurs r1/4 law (dV), withan exponential disk law (E), or with a combination of the two (B+D).From the fitted quantities we derive the H band effective surfacebrightness (μe) and radius (re) of each component, theasymptotic magnitude HT and the light concentration indexC31. We find that: i) Less than 50% of the Ellipticalgalaxies have pure dV profiles. The majority of E to Sb galaxies is bestrepresented by a B+D profile. All Scd to BCD galaxies have pureexponential profiles. ii) The type of decomposition is a strong functionof the total H band luminosity (mass), independent of the Hubbleclassification: the fraction of pure exponential decompositionsdecreases with increasing luminosity, that of B+D increases withluminosity. Pure dV profiles are absent in the low luminosity rangeLH<1010 L\odot and become dominantabove 1011 L\odot . Based on observations taken atTIRGO, Gornergrat, Switzerland (operated by CAISMI-CNR, Arcetri,Firenze, Italy) and at the Calar Alto Observatory (operated by theMax-Planck-Institut für Astronomie (Heidelberg) jointly with theSpanish National Commission for Astronomy).

| Redshifts for Fainter Galaxies in the First CFA Slice. III. To the Zwicky Catalog Limit
We have measured redshifts for 241 galaxies selected from the Zwickycatalog with magnitudes 15.6 or 15.7 in the region (26.5^deg^ <=32.5^deg^, 8^h^<= α <= 17^h^, 1950). This region is theoriginal CfA "Slice of the Universe," which was complete to 15.5; nownearly all Zwicky-catalog galaxies in the region have measuredredshifts. These somewhat fainter galaxies outline the same structuresas the brighter ones. By examining a sample of 27 galaxies within themost prominent void we find (1) the fraction of absorption-line galaxiesis typical of regions outside the cores of rich clusters; and (2) thelocal morphology- density relation holds within the globally underdensevoid.
| KISO survey for ultraviolet-excess galaxies. XVII
Presented here are the 17th list and identification charts of theUV-excess galaxies which have been detected on the multicolor platestaken with the Kiso Schmidt telescope for 10 survey fields. In the skyarea of some 300 sq deg 379 objects are catalogued down to aphotographic magnitude of about 18.
