Magnetic-Field Vector Maps of Nearby Spiral Galaxies

open access: yesGalaxies, 2019
We present a method for determining the directions of magnetic-field vectors in a spiral galaxy using two synchrotron polarization maps, an optical image, and a velocity field.

Surface Photometry of Spiral Galaxy NGC 5005 and Elliptical Galaxy NGC 4278

open access: yesمجلة بغداد للعلوم, 2018
Two galaxies have been chosen, spiral galaxy NGC 5005 and elliptical galaxy NGC 4278 to study their photometric properties by using surface photometric techniques with griz-Filters. Observations are obtained from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).

Study photometric properties of spiral galaxy NGC 4448 using CCD camera with multiband filters

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Physics, 2018
The goal of our study is to perform detailed multiband surface photometry of the spiral galaxy NGC 4448 and its brightest star-forming regions. The structure and composition of the stellar population in the surface brightness galaxy NGC 4448 was studied

Morphology and Kinematics of the Gas in M51: How Interaction with NGC 5195 Has Molded the Structure of Its Arms

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Whirlpool Galaxy is a well-studied grand design galaxy with two major spiral arms, and a large satellite NGC 5195. The arms both show long uniform sections with perturbations (“kinks” or sharp turns) in specific regions.

Dynamically Driven Evolution of the Interstellar Medium in M51 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Massive star formation occurs in giant molecular clouds (GMCs); an understanding of the evolution of GMCs is a prerequisite to develop theories of star formation and galaxy evolution. We report the highest-fidelity observations of the grand-design spiral

The Impacts of Bars, Spirals, and Bulge Size on Gas-phase Metallicity Gradients in MaNGA Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
As galaxies evolve over time, the orbits of their constituent stars are expected to change in size and shape, moving stars away from their birth radius. Radial gas flows are also expected. Spiral arms and bars in galaxies are predicted to help drive this

Galaxy Classification Using EWGC

open access: yesUniverse
The Enhanced Wide-field Galaxy Classification Network (EWGC) is a novel architecture designed to classify spiral and elliptical galaxies using Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) images.

A Simple Model for Explaining Galaxy Rotation Curves

open access: yesGalaxies, 2018
A new simple expression for the circular velocity of spiral galaxies is proposed and tested against HI Nearby Galaxy Survey (THINGS) data set. Its accuracy is compared with the one coming from MOND.
