Descripción
We have the unique opportunity to observe and model nearby streams
around the two large Local Group spirals Milky Way and M31 in great
detail. However, the detection of streams around other external galaxies
is required to verify the general application of the derived results. We
give a short summary of streams around other galaxies known in the
literature, measuring for the first time the surface brightness of
Malin's M83 stream with modern CCD imaging. In addition, we present four
new detections of possible stellar streams around disk galaxies.
