The profiles of bars in spiral galaxies

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023
ABSTRACT We present an analysis of major-axis surface-brightness profiles of bars in a volume-limited sample of 182 barred spiral galaxies, using Spitzer 3.6 $\mu$m images. Unlike most previous studies, we use the entire bar profile, and we classify profiles into four categories.

Spin Parity of Spiral Galaxies. I. Corroborative Evidence for Trailing Spirals

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2019
Whether the spiral structure of galaxies is trailing or leading has been a subject of debate. We present a new spin parity catalog of 146 spiral galaxies that lists the following three pieces of information: whether the spiral structure observed on the ...

Radio AGN in spiral galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2015
Radio AGN in the nearby Universe are more likely to be found in galaxies with early-type morphology, the detection rate in spiral or late-type galaxies (LTGs) being around an order of magnitude lower. We combine the mJy Imaging VLBA Exploration at 20 cm (mJIVE-20) survey with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, to study the relatively rare population of AGN ...

Molecular Clouds in Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1983
A large observational program investigating the 2.6 mm CO line in spiral galaxies is being conducted by myself and Nick Scoville using the 14 m telescope of the Five College Radio Astronomy Observatory (HPBW = 50″). Thus far we have observed 46 galaxies of types Sa, Sb, Sc and Irr, detected 31, and mapped 16.

Mass of Spiral Galaxies by Means of a Maximum Disc Model

open access: yesUniversitas Scientiarum, 2018
Maximum disc mass models for a set of spiral galaxies from the Ursa Major Cluster are presented. We construct the models using the Hunther method and the particular solutions are chosen in such away that the circular velocities are adjusted very ...

Barred Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1970
We point out some properties of barred spiral galaxies which are important for the theory of their formation and spiral structure, and describe some theoretical work on the dynamics of these systems.

NUMERICAL MODELLING OF GAS DYNAMIC STRUCTURES IN SPIRAL GALAXIES

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2013
Observations show that in the global morphology of spiral galaxies appear and form multi-scale features that are embedded in a complex complete picture of the galaxy.

Quantifying the fine structures of disk galaxies with deep learning:Segmentation of spiral arms in different Hubble types [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Spatial correlations between spiral arms and other galactic components such as giant molecular clouds and massive OB stars suggest that spiral arms can play vital roles in various aspects of disk galaxy evolution. Segmentation of spiral arms in disk galaxies is therefore a key task to investigate these correlations.

The HI Halo of Spiral Galaxies

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2004
The results of observational studies on the vertical HI density distribution and kinematics of the disks of spiral galaxies are reported and discussed. Attention is drawn to the presence of HI emission, unknown before and here referred to as the `beard', which has anomalous structure and kinematics, different from the known cold HI disk. This component
