Low surface brightness galaxies

ID: low-surface-brightness-galaxies

Low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies are a type of galaxy characterized by their relatively low luminosity per unit area. This means that they are fainter and have less concentrated light compared to more conventional, high surface brightness galaxies (HSB). Here are some key features and characteristics of LSB galaxies: 1. **Surface Brightness**: LSB galaxies have a surface brightness that is significantly lower than that of typical galaxies.
