The haloes and environments of nearby galaxies (HERON) -- III. A 45 kpc spiral structure in the GLSB galaxy UGC 4599
Aleksandr V. Mosenkov, R. Michael Rich, Michael Fusco +10
We use a 0.7-m telescope in the framework of the Halos and Environments of Nearby Galaxies (HERON) survey to probe low surface brightness structures in nearby galaxies. One of our…
Evidence in favour of density wave theory through star formation history maps and spatially resolved stellar clusters
Shameer Abdeen, Daniel Kennefick, Julia Kennefick +7
Stationary Density Wave Theory predicts the existence of an age gradient across the spiral arms with a phase crossing at the co-rotation radius. Using star formation history (SFH)…
Determining the Co-Rotation Radii of Spiral Galaxies Using Spiral Arm Pitch Angle Measurements at Multiple Wavelengths
Shameer Abdeen, Daniel Kennefick, Julia Kennefick +4
The spiral arms spanning disk galaxies are believed to be created by density waves that propagate through galactic disks. We present a novel method of finding the co-rotation radiu…
