VV 120 = Arp 111 = NGC 5421
14 01 41.4 +33 49 35
At 282x, this interacting pair appeared moderately bright, fairly
small, elongated 3:2 NNW-SSE but irregular. Contains a very small,
bright nucleus. A non-stellar knot companion (VV 120c) appearing
like a second bright "nucleus" was visible at the southeast
end of the halo. At 322x, VV120c was easily resolved and appeared
faint to fairly faint, very small, round, 10" diameter. A
mag 15 star is just off the southwest side. MCG +06-31-046 = VV
120d+e at mag 17.1V, is just 1' S of the pair and was glimpsed
several times for brief moments and confirmed at 322x. |

I Zw 96 = VV 517 = UGC 9511
14 44 53.6 +51 20 28
V = 15.3 B = 16.0
At 280x and 375x appeared very faint, very small, round, low even
surface brightness, 15" diameter. Can just hold steadily with
averted and concentration. 2MASX J14450375+5121557, situated just
2.1' NE, was not seen. CGCG 273-026 = VV 713 lies 16.5' NNE and
?1871, a perfectly matched 1.8" pair of mag 8 stars, lies 31'
WNW. Described by Zwicky as a "Red post-eruptive globular compact
with extended halo, pencil jets and associated faint stellar knots. |

VV 713 = CGCG 273-02614 45 45.1 +51 34 51
V = 13.8 B = 14.6
At 282x appeared fairly faint, small, slightly elongated, ~20"x15",
very small brighter nucleus increases to the center, fainter halo.
Situated midway between mag 8.6 HD 130370 3.4' NE and a mag 11
star 3.3' SW. I Zw 96 = VV 517 lies 16.5' SSW. On the SDSS this
appears to be a possible merged system with tidal tails to the
west and east, although only one nucleus is visible |

I Zw 107 = VV 705 = CGCG 221-050
15 18 06.3 +42 44 36
At 282x this tight interacting pair appeared fairly faint, fairly
small, oval 3:2 NNW-SSE, ~20"x14". A very small brighter
nucleus appears offset to the east side of the glow. A mag 15.8
star lies 35" ENE and a mag 16.0 star is 1.3' S. Located 14'
NE of mag 7.5 HD 136115. On the SDSS there is a tight pair of nuclei,
separated by only 6" and this object appears to be a merging
pair of compacts with tidally distorted arms that loop and intersect
each other. |

I Zw 117 = UGC 9922
15 35 53.7 +38 40 40
At 322x this interacting pair of compact galaxies was just resolved.
The brighter (starburst) component is on the south end and appeared
fairly faint, fairly small, elongated N-S, ~24"x12", contains
a very small brighter nucleus offset towards the north end. A very
faint, extremely small companion is barely detached in steady moments
at the north end, appearing as an 8" round knot. Generally,
though, the two objects blend together into a single elongated glow. |

VV 129 = UGC 10321
16 18 05.3 +21 33 13
At 282x, three components of VV 129 were resolved. VV 129a = UGC
10321 NED01, the brightest member, appeared very faint, small, round,
18", visible continuously. VV 129c, just 35" N, appeared
extremely faint, small, round, 10" diameter. VV 129e = MCG
+04-38-047 lies 1.1' NE and appeared extremely faint (V = 16.2),
very small, round, 12" diameter. Could not hold continuously
but repeatedly seen and confirmed. A quartet of mag 14-15.5 stars
(similar size to VV 129) is less than 2' S. CGCG 137-077 lies 10'
E and 2MASX J16180582+2128229 is 5' S. |

VV 560 = UGC 10402
16 28 41 +12 45 57
At 282x appeared as a faint, elongated glow with a brighter elongated
knot oriented N-S on the south side. The fainter northern component
occasionally resolved into a very faint, very small glow, ~10"
diameter. VV 560 is an interacting pair of disturbed spirals.
On the SDSS, the pair has a "Sickle" shape, with the
fainter curved section at the north end and the elongated "handle"
at the south end.

I Zw 199
17 50 05.1 +56 40 27
At 320x, I Zw 199 appeared as a fairly faint, fairly small, round,
irregular glow, ~30"x20" SW-NE with a small "knot"
at the southwest end. Occasionally, a very close pair of compacts
were resolved. The northeast compoment (MCG +09-29-040) was larger
(~20") and brighter (V = 14.7). The fainter southwest knot
(MCG +09-29-039) was only 10"-12" in size and more sharply
defined. The centers of these compacts are separated by only 20"! |
