Scale Lengths in Disk Surface Brightness as probes of Dust Extinction
We have measured the radial brightness distributions in the disks of three nearby face-on spirals: M 51, NGC 3631, and NGC 4321 (M 100) in the photometric bands B through I, with the addition of the K band for M 51 only. The measurements were made by averaging azimuthally, in three modes, the two-dimensional surface brightness over the disks in photometric images of the objects in each band: (a...
متن کاملBimodal dust emission in three classical Seyfert galaxies : NGC 3227 , NGC 4051 and NGC 4151 ?
Far Infrared observations of the Seyfert galaxies NGC 3227, NGC 4051 and NGC 4151 are presented. These are the first data from a complete sample of Seyfert galaxies that is being observed by ISO as part of the ISOPHOT guaranteed time. The new ISO data, in combination with the IRAS data, show that the mid to far IR emission in all three objects can be ascribed to two well defined regimes, namely...
متن کاملAtomic hydrogen in the spiral galaxy NGC 3631
New high resolution, high sensitivity WSRT H i synthesis observations of the spiral galaxy NGC 3631 are presented. In the total atomic hydrogen map, the spiral arms are well distinguished from the interarm regions, while the sensitivity allows detection of H i in all but a few isolated regions of the areas between the spiral arms. Most of the atomic hydrogen is located within the optical disc, ...
متن کاملSupermassive black holes in the Sbc spiral galaxies NGC 3310 , NGC 4303 and NGC 4258 ⋆
We have undertaken an HST Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph survey of 54 late type spiral galaxies to study the scaling relations between black holes and their host spheroids at the low mass end. Our aim is to measure black hole masses or to set upper limits for a sizeable sample of spiral galaxies. In this paper we present new Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) observations of thre...
متن کاملCorrugated velocity patterns in the spiral galaxies : NGC 278 , NGC 1058 , NGC 2500 & UGC 3574
We address the study of the Hα vertical velocity field in a sample of four nearly face-on galaxies using long slit spectroscopy taken with the ISIS spectrograph attached to the WHT at the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory (Spain). The spatial structure of the velocity vertical component shows a radial corrugated pattern with spatial scales higher or within the order of one kiloparsec. The gas ...
