ARP 133 falls under Arp's very odd category of galaxies with nearby fragments. It consists of two galaxies, NGC 541 the large cD/S0 galaxy to the southwest of a pair of elliptical galaxies that are Arp 308.

Just above and left of Arp 308 is a large lenticular galaxy, NGC 541, which Arp classified as Arp 133 in the category of "Galaxies with Nearby Fragments". This galaxy is about 130,000 light years in diameter.

NGC 541 is a radio galaxy of Fanaroff–Riley class I, also known as 3C 40A (3C 40B is more prominent and is associated with the nearby galaxy NGC 547). [3] The galaxy was observed by the Hubble Space Telescope. It was found that it has a central disk seen nearly face-on with a diameter of 1".8.

2007年11月12日 · The 338 Arp fields range from familiar bright galaxies like M51 down to faint 17th magnitude nearly-anonymous fleaspecks. Few starcharts or observing guides reference the Arp number, so to find most Arps, the observer must start with a reference that relates more commonly used galaxy names to the Arp number.

Halton Arp's "Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies" was meant to provide examples of various types of galaxies as a guide for study of the origin and evolution of galaxies, at a time (the mid-1960's) when astronomers had little idea what that involved.

Minkowski's Object (Arp 133) is a peculiar dwarf galaxy in the constellation Cetus lying about one arc-minute ENE of the elliptical galaxy NGC 541. The latter is also a radio galaxy that has a jet of ionized plasma emanating from its nucleus.

2023年9月30日 · Abell 194 is a cluster of around 37 galaxies located approximately 265 million light-years away in Cetus. See the annotated version. Arp 308 is a pair of galaxies just above and to the left (east) of center. Arp 133 is a grouping just below and to the right (west) of center.
