Abstract
A catalog is given of the currently available measurements of interstellar matter in the 467 early-type galaxies listed in the second edition of the Revised Shapley-Ames Catalog of Bright Galaxies. The morphological type range is E, SO, and Sa. The ISM tracers are emission in the following bands: IRAS 100 micron, X-ray, radio, neutral hydrogen, and carbon monoxide. Nearly two-thirds of the Es and SOs have been detected in one or more of these tracers. Additional observed quantities that are tabulated include: magnitude, colors, radial velocity, central velocity dispersion, maximum of the rotation curve, angular size, 60 micron flux, and supernovae. Qualitative statements as to the presence of dust or emission lines, when available in the literature, are given. Quantities derivative from the observed values are also listed and include masses of H I, CO, X-ray gas, and dust as well as an estimate of the total mass and mass-to-luminosity ratio of the individual galaxies. 204 refs.
