Morphology and kinematics of the gas in M51: How interaction with NGC5195 has moulded the structure of its arms

Joan Font, John E. Beckman, Benoît Epinat +2

The Whirlpool Galaxy is a well studied grand design galaxy with two major spiral arms, and a large satellite NGC 5195. The arms both show long uniform sections with perturbations (…

Star Formation in Outer Rings of S0 galaxies. V. UGC 4599 -- an S0 with gas probably accreted from a filament

O. Sil'chenko, A. Moiseev, D. Oparin +2

Though S0 galaxies are usually thought to be `red and dead', they often demonstrate weak star formation organised in ring structures and located in their outer disks. We try to cla…

Spiral arm formation mechanisms: Spiral Structure in Barred galaxies. Observational constraints to spiral arm formation mechanisms

Joan Font, John E. Beckman, Phil A. James +1

A method which we have developed for determining corotation radii, has allowed us to map in detail the radial resonant structures of barred spiral galaxies. Here we have combined t…

Evolution of the anti-truncated stellar profiles of S0 galaxies since in the SHARDS survey: II - Structural and photometric evolution

Alejandro Borlaff, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, John E. Beckman +7

Type-III S0 galaxies present tight scaling relations between their surface brightness photometric and structural parameters. Several evolutionary models have been proposed for the…

Precision determination of corotation radii in galaxy disks: Tremaine-Weinberg v. Font-Beckman for NGC 3433

John E. Beckman, Joan Font, Alejandro Borlaff +1

Density waves in galaxy disks have been proposed over the years, in a variety of specific models, to explain spiral arm structure and its relation to the mass distribution, notably…

Stellar Population Synthesis of star forming clumps in galaxy pairs and non-interacting spiral galaxies

Javier Zaragoza-Cardiel, Beverly J. Smith, Margarita Rosado +5

We have identified 1027 star forming complexes in a sample of 46 galaxies from the Spirals, Bridges, and Tails (SB&T) sample of interacting galaxies, and 693 star forming complexes…
