Star formation in grand design and flocculent spiral galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal, 1985 An examination is conducted of the colors and neutral hydrogen contents of spiral galaxies which have been classified in the Elmegreen and Elmegreen arm morphology system. Using these data, possible differences between the star formation activity in spiral galaxies with and without classic spiral arms are delineated.

GRAND DESIGN AND FLOCCULENT SPIRALS IN THESPITZERSURVEY OF STELLAR STRUCTURE IN GALAXIES (S4G) [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2011 Spiral arm properties of 46 galaxies in the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G) were measured at 3.6mu, where extinction is small and the old stars dominate. The sample includes flocculent, multiple arm, and grand design types with a wide range of Hubble and bar types.

The sequence of spiral arm classes: Observational signatures of persistent spiral density waves in grand-design galaxies [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2019 AbstractWe investigate how the properties of spiral arms relate to other fundamental galaxy properties. To this end, we use previously published measurements of those properties, and our own measurements of arm-interarm luminosity contrasts for a large sample of galaxies, using 3.6μm images from the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies ...

Grand Design vs. Multi-Armed Spiral Galaxies: Dependence on Galaxy Structure [PDF]
We developed an algorithm to use Galaxy Zoo 3D spiral arm masks produced by citizen scientist volunteers to semi-automatically classify spiral galaxies as either multi-armed or grand design spirals. Our final sample consists of 299 multi-armed and 245 grand design galaxies.
