Nuclear magnitudes for galaxies in the coma and Perseus clusters
Description
Multiaperture B V photometry is presented for 72 galaxies in the Coma Cluster and 44 galaxies in the Perseus Cluster using apertures from 4'!1 to 170 in diameter. Apparent correlations similar to those reported by Tifft are found between the galactic nuclear magnitudes and galaxy red shifts in the Coma cluster but not in the Perseus cluster. We do not presently conclude that the data provide confirming evidence for noncosmological redshifts in these clusters. However, it is found that either the absolute nuclear magnitudes of the Perseus cluster galaxies are about 1 mag brighter than those of Coma or that the Coma cluster is more distant relative to Perseus than its redshift implies. Subject headings: galactic nuclei - galaxies, clusters of - galaxies, photometry of - redshifts
