Abstract

Using the database of Photometric Atlas of Northern Bright Galaxies, the spatial orientation of 220 bright isolated held disk galaxies (41 SO, 174 S, and 5 Irr) in the Local Supercluster (LSC) has been analyzed. The sample of field galaxies is constructed by selecting disk galaxies with cz less than or equal to 3000 km s(-1) and excluding all galaxies of the groups or clusters of at least three members. Emphasis is placed on exploring morphological dependence of orientation of field galaxies.
