Local Sheet

The Local Sheet in astronomy is a nearby extragalactic region of space where the Milky Way , the members of the Local Group and other galaxies share a similar peculiar velocity . [2] This region lies within a radius of about 7  Mpc (23  Mly ), [3] 0.46 Mpc (1.5 Mly) thick, [1] and galaxies beyond that distance show markedly different velocities. [3] The Local Group has only a relatively small peculiar velocity of 66  km⋅s −1 with respect to the Local Sheet. Typical velocity dispersion of galaxies is only 40 km⋅s −1 in the radial direction. [2] Nearly all nearby bright galaxies belong to the Local Sheet. [1] The Local Sheet is part of the Local Volume and is in the Virgo Supercluster (Local Supercluster). [4] The Local Sheet forms a wall of galaxies delineating one boundary of the Local Void . [5]
