The ionized gas in the spiral galaxy NGC 3359
We combine Hα imaging and broad-band optical and NIR imaging over the face of the barred galaxy NGC 3359, obtained within the BARS program on the Canary Island telescopes. From the Hα image we have determined the positions, fluxes, and diameters of a total of 547 Hii regions, and computed their luminosity function, whose slope is within the range of those of morphologically similar galaxies fou...
متن کاملIonized Gas inside the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 1
We have studied the differences between the diffuse ionized gas (DIG) and the H ii regions along a slit position in the local dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822. The slit position passes through the two most prominent H ii regions: Hubble V and Hubble X. Important differences have been found in the excitation, ionization, and [N ii]λ6584Å/Hα and [S ii]λ6717Å/Hα line ratios between the DIG and the ...
متن کاملObjects in the Spiral Galaxy Ngc
Several strange objects in the spiral galaxy NGC 6946 are described. One of these objects is the giant stellar complex noted long ago; we suggested that its sharp semicircular western edge is a result of the ram pressure, arising owing to motion of this complex through the H I halo of NGC 6946. We found another enigmatic object, proposing for it the name Red Ellipse; it is located within the is...
متن کاملGas stripping in galaxy groups – the case of the starburst spiral NGC 2276
Ram pressure stripping of galactic gas is generally assumed to be inefficient in galaxy groups due to the relatively low density of the intragroup medium and the small velocity dispersions of groups. To test this assumption, we obtained Chandra X-ray data of the starbursting spiral NGC 2276 in the NGC 2300 group of galaxies, a candidate for a strong galaxy interaction with hot intragroup gas. T...
متن کاملStrong non - circular motions of gas in the spiral galaxy NGC 1084 ?
The results of Hα and [NII]λ6583 observations of the spiral galaxy NGC 1084 at the SAO 6m telescope with a Fabry-Perot interferometer are presented. The complex structure of the emission line profile has revealed the presence of giant star formation regions (“spur”) in the NE part of the galaxy. In this region the Hα line shows two distinct components, with line-of-sight velocity differences of...
