Abstract
We selected a sample of dwarf galaxies in the Virgo cluster from the original catalog of Bingelli, Sandage and Tamman (1985), which have been measured at 21 cm by Hoffman et al. (1987). The original sample was selected to have both high surface brightness objects (classified as BCD or anything/BCD), and low surface brightness galaxies (classified as ImIII, ImIV or ImV). An additional selection was done on the total amount of HI, as given in Hoffman et al. We selected from each surface brightness group objects with high HI content (flux integral larger than a set threshold), and others with low HI content. We thus defined four samples differing in surface brightness level and total HI content.
