The striking near-infrared morphology of the inner region in M100
New optical and near-infrared (NIR) K-band images of the inner 3 kpc region of the nearby Virgo spiral M100 (NGC 4321) display remarkable morphological changes...
The vertical stellar distribution in NGC 6504: Detection of a thick disk
The vertical stellar distribution of the edge-on spiral NGC 6504 is examined in seven bands (U, B, R, I, J, H, K) by fitting model distributions to the light...
Two new Seyfert galaxies from the IRAS Point Source Catalogue
Two sources selected from the IRAS Point Source Catalogue (PSC) have been spectroscopically identified as galaxies with a Seyfert type active nucleus. The...
V-R diagram for spiral galaxies - New insights into the Hubble sequence
The present examination of the relation between the global parameters of spiral galaxies and their morphological type represents rotational velocity V at 25 mag...
Very high velocity gas in giant extragalactic H II regions.
As part of a systematic survey for the search of high velocity gas in giant extragalactic H II regions, the authors have observed the five largest and brightest...
What do we really know about Spiral Galaxy Morphology
stronomers have long learned to classify spirals in terms of their morphological features, primarily their bulges, discs, and bars. In addition other properties...
