Fairall Galaxy List
(Frl, Fairall)
(1977 list of galaxies with bright nuclei)
Astronomer Anthony Patrick Fairall assembled in the 1970s
what I'll call his Fairall Galaxy List,
a list of galaxies with bright nuclei,
e.g., Seyfert galaxies.
Some of the galaxies he identified are still commonly
identified by his reference number, e.g., Fairall 9.
