Abstract
We report on the discovery of three large diffuse dwarf (LDD) galaxies located in isolated triple systems. They have effective diameters of 3.6 ÷ 10.0 kpc and effective surface brightness of 26.2 ÷ 27.3 m/sq. arcsec. We note that the LDD galaxies tend to occur in small groups with a very low dispersion of radial velocities. The total (orbital) mass of the triplets approximately equals to their integral stellar mass within velocity measurement errors. The presence of LDD galaxies in cold multiple systems seems mysterious.
期刊介绍:
Astrophysics (Ap) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal which publishes research in theoretical and observational astrophysics. Founded by V.A.Ambartsumian in 1965 Astrophysics is one of the international astronomy journals. The journal covers space astrophysics, stellar and galactic evolution, solar physics, stellar and planetary atmospheres, interstellar matter. Additional subjects include chemical composition and internal structure of stars, quasars and pulsars, developments in modern cosmology and radiative transfer.
