Updated Nearby Galaxy Catalog

We present an all-sky catalog of 869 nearby galaxies, having individual distance estimates within 11 Mpc or corrected radial velocities V_{LG} < 600 km/s. The catalog is a renewed and expanded version of the &#34;Catalog of Neighboring Galaxies&#34; by Karachentsev et al. (2004). It collects data on the following observables for the galaxies: angular diameters, apparent magnitudes in FUV-, B-, and K_s- bands, H_alpha and HI fluxes, morphological types, HI-line widths, radial velocities and distance estimates. In this Local Volume (LV) sample 108 dwarf galaxies remain to be still without measured radial velocities. The catalog yields also calculated global galaxy parameters: linear Holmberg diameter, absolute B-magnitude, surface brightness, HI-mass, stellar mass estimated via K-band luminosity, HI rotational velocity corrected for galaxy inclination, indicative mass within the Holmberg radius, and three kinds of &#34;tidal index&#34;, which quantify the local density environment. The catalog is supplemented with the data based on the local galaxies (http://www.sao.ru/lv/lvgdb), which presents their optical and available H_alpha images, as well as other service. We briefly discuss the Hubble flow within the LV, and different scaling relations that characterize galaxy structure and global star formation in them. We also trace the behavior of the mean stellar mass density, HI-mass density and star formation rate density within the considered volume.
