Fig. 8.

On-sky distribution of galaxies in field of Cen A/M 83. The large black diamonds correspond to M 83 (top), Cen A (middle), and NGC 4945 (bottom). The black rulers indicate 500 kpc at the distance and declination of Cen A. The black dots are confirmed dwarf galaxies in this field (Karachentsev et al. 2013), the gray dots are the remaining candidates in the field (Müller et al. 2015, 2017a; Taylor et al. 2018). With the gray circles, we denote dubious candidates (probably Galactic cirrus patches), based on their morphology, size, and faintness. The red dots correspond to confirmed dwarf galaxies employing the VLT (Müller et al. 2018b, and this work), the blue squares to the recently confirmed dwarfs with HST (Crnojević et al. 2019). The red crosses are the candidates which we ruled out as dwarf galaxies in the immediate vicinity of Cen A/M 83 (Müller et al. 2018b, and this work). The yellow triangle indicates a newly discovered dwarf galaxy of Cen A, confirmed using SBF distance measurements (Müller et al., in prep., see Sect. 6.2). Our Cen A survey ends at roughly δ = −45 deg.
