Objects 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 کاملThe 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 کاملH I power spectrum of the spiral galaxy NGC 628
We have measured the H I power spectrum of the nearly face-on spiral galaxy NGC 628 (M74) using a visibility-based estimator. The power spectrum is well fitted by a power law P(U) = AU , with α = −1.6 ± 0.2 over the length-scale 800 pc to 8 kpc. The slope is found to be independent of the width of the velocity channel. This value of the slope is a little more than one in excess of what has been...
متن کاملNewton OBSERVATIONS OF THE SPIRAL GALAXY M 74 ( NGC
The face-on spiral galaxy M 74 (NGC 628) was observed by XMM-Newton on 2002 February 2. In total, 21 sources are found in the inner 5 from the nucleus (after rejection of a few sources associated to foreground stars). Hardness ratios suggest that about half of them belong to the galaxy. The higher-luminosity end of the luminosity function is fitted by a power-law of slope −0.8. This can be inte...
متن کاملDynamical model of the grand - design spiral galaxy NGC 157
Numerical simulations of the interstellarmediumunder the action of a density wave provide an accurate method for determining the positions of the main resonances in grand– design spiral galaxies. Barred spiral galaxies are among the best candidates for a single and well defined wave mode, because bars are standingwaveswhichmay share the same pattern speed as the spiral structure. In line with o...
