A 2D array of optical fibers generating simultaneous spectral and spatial information has been used to observe the central 13 arcsec of NGC 5728; on this basis...
In this talk I will present the first complete 12CO J=3-2 map of M81, observed as part of the Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey. We have detected nine regions of...
The Distribution of Star Formation in the Central Regions of Spiral Galaxies
Nuclear rings are characterized by their high star formation rates, and are believed to be the products of gas inflow towards the inner regions of spiral...
The EDGE-CALIFA Survey: An Extragalactic Database for Galaxy Evolution Studies
The EDGE-CALIFA survey provides spatially resolved optical integral-field unit and CO spectroscopy for 125 galaxies selected from the Calar Alto Legacy Integral...
The galactic wind in the circum-nuclear zone of NGC 6946
Using the H-II region H-alpha emission detected in high-resolution long slit spectra of the normal spiral NGC 6946 out to 6 kpc from the center, and along 8...
The interacting system NGC 7753-7752 (Arp 86). I - BVRI photometry
BVRI surface photometry is presented for the interacting galaxy pair Arp 86 (NGC 7753-7752). Deep high-resolution images were obtained in order to study the...
The nature of arms in spiral galaxies. I - Azimuthal colour profiles of NGC 7479 and NGC 1832
A set of parameters to characterize azimuthal profiles of galaxies is proposed and applied to the spiral structure of the galaxies NGC 1832 and NGC 7479...
