Abstract
AbstractWe have performed a search for faint companions around the nearest massive galaxies. We see a clear signature of clustering of faint objects, both in projected separation and in velocity offset. The inferred satellite luminosity functions confirm that the abundance of faint satellites seen in the Local Group is typical of other nearby systems.
