HI and CO spectroscopy of the unusual host of GRB 171205A: A grand design spiral galaxy with a distorted HI field [PDF]

GRBs produced by the collapse of massive stars are usually found near the most prominent star-forming regions of star-forming galaxies. GRB 171205A happened in the outskirts of a spiral galaxy, a peculiar location in an atypical GRB host. In this paper we present a highly-resolved study of the molecular gas of this host, with CO(1-0) observations from ...

Blue and near-infrared surface photometry of spiral structure in 34 nonbarred grand design and flocculent galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 1984
On a examine les profils radiaux du disque et la structure des bras spiraux des 34 galaxies. On donne les profils azimutaux et les diagrammes couleur-amplitude des bras spiraux. On discute des modeles d'evolution de la couleur. Ces modeles sont utilises pour determiner l'amplitude des spirales de densite stellaire sous jacentes et le renforcement ...

A Cloud-Scale View of the Molecular Gas Disk in the Whirlpool Galaxy and Beyond [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
The nearby galaxy M51 (also known as the Whirlpool galaxy) hosts an iconic grand-design spiral pattern and both IRAM facilities conducted the first cloud-scale (∼50 pc resolution) survey of the molecular gas reservoir across a the disk of a massive star ...

Dust Emission in Galaxies at Millimeter Wavelengths: Cooling of star forming regions in NGC6946 [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
Interstellar dust plays an important role in the formation of molecular gas and the heating and cooling of the interstellar medium. The spatial distribution of the mm-wavelength dust emission from galaxies is largely unexplored. The NIKA2 Guaranteed Time

J0107a: A Barred Spiral Dusty Star-forming Galaxy at z = 2.467 [PDF]

Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFGs) are among the most massive and active star-forming galaxies during the cosmic noon. Theoretical studies have proposed various formation mechanisms of DSFGs, including major merger-driven starbursts and secular star ...

Perturbed precessing ellipses as the building blocks of spiral arms in a barred galaxy with two pattern speeds [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2022
Observations and simulations of barred spiral galaxies have shown that, in general, the spiral arms rotate at a different pattern speed to that of the bar. The main conclusion from the bibliography is that the bar rotates faster than the spiral arms with

Estimation of the Parameters of the Spiral Pattern in the Galaxy Based on a Sample of Classical Cepheids [PDF]

Astronomy letters, 2022
We consider a sample of Galactic classical Cepheids with highly accurate estimates of their distances taken from Skowron et al., where they were determined based on the period–luminosity relation.

PHANGS–JWST First Results: Multiwavelength View of Feedback-driven Bubbles (the Phantom Voids) across NGC 628

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We present a high-resolution view of bubbles within the Phantom Galaxy (NGC 628), a nearby (∼10 Mpc), star-forming (∼2 M _⊙ yr ^−1 ), face-on ( i ∼ 9°) grand-design spiral galaxy.
