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

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.

PHANGS–JWST First Results: A Combined HST and JWST Analysis of the Nuclear Star Cluster in NGC 628
We combine archival Hubble Space Telescope and new James Webb Space Telescope imaging data covering the ultraviolet to mid-infrared regime to morphologically analyze the nuclear star cluster (NSC) of NGC 628, a grand-design spiral galaxy.

A multiwavelength study of spiral structure in galaxies. II. Spiral arms in deep optical observations [PDF]
In this paper, we look to analyse the spiral features of grand-design, multiarmed, and flocculent spiral galaxies using deep optical imaging from DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys.

Evidence for small halos in grand design spiral galaxies
Les courbes de rotation de 41 galaxies spirales de differents types sont comparees. Il est montre que les galaxies ayant deux bras longs et symetriques tendent a avoir des courbes de rotation exterieures tombantes alors que les galaxies ayant des bras multiples ou des bras floconneux courts ont plutot des courbes de rotation presques plates ou s ...

J1649+2635: A Grand-Design Spiral with a Large Double-Lobed Radio Source [PDF]
We report the discovery of a grand-design spiral galaxy associated with a double-lobed radio source. J1649+2635 (z = 0.0545) is a red spiral galaxy with a prominent bulge that it is associated with a L(1.4GHz) is approximately 10(exp24) W Hz(exp1) double-

The Carnegie-Irvine Galaxy Survey. VI. Quantifying Spiral Structure [PDF]
The Carnegie-Irvine Galaxy Survey provides high-quality broadband optical images of a large sample of nearby galaxies for detailed study of their structure. To probe the physical nature and possible cosmological evolution of spiral arms, a common feature
