A distorted spiral galaxy, with an 18th-magnitude bright knot 2s of time west of center (at RA 14 45 22.6, Dec +19 27 58), about 0.1 by 0.1 arcmin in size (listed in NED as Arp 64 NED01). The visible-light recessional velocity of the main galaxy is 12510 km/sec; a second value at radio wavelengths is only 9395 km/sec, and may come from a fainter object lying somewhat closer, or to a high-speed jet of radio-emitting matter that happens to be heading more or less in our direction. Either way, the visible-light recessional velocity seems the appropriate one to use for Hubble distance estimates. A straightforward calculation then indicates that the galaxy is about 580 million light years away. However, for objects at such distances we should take into account the Universal expansion during the time it took their light to reach us. Doing that shows that PGC 52698 was about 555 million light years away at the time the light by which we see it was emitted, about 565 million years ago (the difference between the two numbers being due to the expansion of the intervening space during the light-travel time). Given that and its apparent size of 1.5 by 0.4 arcmin, the galaxy is about 240 thousand light years across, and the small blob at its western end is about 15 thousand light years in size.

Apparent size 0.3 by 0.1 arcmin; nothing else really known, but if actually associated with PGC 52698 (which see for images), then its distance of about 555 million light years would make PGC 214322 almost 50 thousand light years across. Based on its appearance, probably an irregular or loosely structured galaxy.

Listed as Arp 47, as an example of a spiral galaxy with a faint companion. Based on a recessional velocity of 12350 km/sec, a straightforward calculation indicates that PGC 52803 is about 575 million light years away. However, for objects at such distances we should take into account the Universal expansion during the time it took their light to reach us. Doing that shows that the galaxy was about 550 million light years away at the time by which we see it was emitted, about 560 million years ago (the difference between the two numbers being due to the expansion of the intervening space during the light-travel time). Given that and its apparent size of 0.75 by 0.4 arcmin, PC 52803 is about 120 thousand light years across. Its obvious companion (to the west, or to the right in the images below) is PGC 2802352, but since the Arp listing specifies a "faint" companion, that is not the other member of Arp 47; instead, it is the 19th-magnitude object on the eastern (left edge) of PGC 52803 (its designation as SDSS J144715.24+185134.8 being shortened to "J144715.2+185134" in the image).

Because of its proximity to PGC 52803 (which see for images), often listed as part of Arp 47. However, that classification refers to a spiral galaxy with a faint companion, which means that it is not PGC 2802352 but the small object on the eastern side of PGC 52803 that is the other component of Arp 47. Apparent size 0.6 by 0.4 arcmin. Distance and therefore size unknown.

Based on a recessional velocity of 1855 km/sec, PGC 52935 is about 86 million light years away. Given that and its apparent size of 1.7 by 0.85 arcmin, it is about 40 thousand light years across. PGC 52935 is part of an interacting or collisional pair (or perhaps triplet) listed as Arp 261. The interaction between the galaxies has considerably distorted their shapes, and caused spectacular bursts of star formation. The interaction also proves that whatever their distance, both galaxies are at essentially the same distance from us, as they are obviously in direct physical contact.

Based on a recessional velocity of 1835 km/sec, PGC 52940 is about 85 million light years away, in reasonable agreement with a redshift-independent distance estimate of 94 million light years. Given that and its apparent size of 3.0 by 2.0 arcmin, it is about 75 thousand light years across. PGC 52940 is part of an interacting or collisional pair with PGC 52935, which see for images, listed as Arp 261. The interaction between the galaxies has considerably distorted their shapes, and caused spectacular bursts of star formation. The interaction also proves that whatever their distance, both galaxies are at essentially the same distance from us, as they are obviously in direct physical contact.
