Abstract | For three galaxies in the M81/IC 342 neighbourhood, photographic B, V-photometry of the bright stellar population has been made. Using the three brightest red and three brightest blue supergiants the following distance moduli are obtained: 27.86 and 28.03 for NGC 1560, 28.36 and 28.18 for NGC 2976, and 28.43 and 28.47 for DDO 165, respectively. All the galaxies are associated with the M81 + IC 342 group. |
