Identification of Intermediate-mass Black Hole Candidates among a Sample of Sd Galaxies
We analyzed images of every northern hemisphere Sd galaxy listed in the Third Reference Catalogue of Bright Galaxies with a relatively face-on inclination ( θ ≤ 30°). Specifically, we measured the spiral arms’ winding angle, ϕ , in 85 galaxies.

Formation of Spiral Galaxies [PDF]
Conventionally, two major components of spiral galaxies are distinguished: (1) a “spheroidal component”, which includes the central bulge and the surrounding halo, and (2) a “disc component”, which is basically flat and circular but is often warped at the edges. Other structures, such as bars or rings, may also be present, but they are probably of less

The Role of Spiral Arms in Galaxies
We test the influence of spiral arms on the star formation activity of disk galaxies by constructing and fitting multiwavelength spectral energy distributions for the two nearby spiral galaxies NGC 628 and NGC 4321, at a spatial scale of 1–1.5 kpc ...

Stellar and dust emission profiles of IMEGIN galaxies [PDF]
We present a morphological analysis of a set of spiral galaxies from the NIKA2 Guaranteed Time Large Program, IMEGIN. We have fitted a single Sérsic model on a set of broadband images, from ultra-violet (UV) to millimeter (mm) wavelengths, using the ...

Outskirts of spiral galaxies [PDF]
AbstractI present an overview of the recent star formation activity in the outer disks of spiral galaxies, from the observational standpoint, with emphasis on the gas content, the star formation law, the metallicity and the stellar populations.
