Estimate of peculiar velocities of field galaxies

  • 1. Moskovskij Gosudarstvennyj Univ. (USSR). Gosudarstvennyj Astronomicheskij Inst. ''GAISh''

Description

For root mean square peculiar velocity of field galaxies at a distance less than 20 Mpc (with H=75 km/sxMpc), an estimate of 70+-40 km/s has been obtained. The peculiar velocities of more distant field galaxies don't exceed the errors of their determination. Galaxy motion effect on peculiar velocities of field galaxy is considered. Difference in Galaxy velocities according to near and far aalaxies is explained by existence of the Supercluster
