Book excerpt: We have conducted a detailed study of the dynamics of the neutral hydrogen gas in the bright northern barred spiral galaxy NGC 3359. Observations of the 21 cm line at the Very Large Array have been reduced to give single-channel maps with a spatial resolution of 18", and a velocity resolution of 25 km/s. The acquisition, calibration, and reduction of the data are discussed in some detail. Maps of the integrated column density and mean velocity of the atomic hydrogen, derived from the channel maps, provide the principal data for an investigation of the dynamics associated with the spiral structure of the galaxy. On scales comparable to the resolution of this survey, approximately 1 kpc at the distance of NGC 3359, the gas is broken up into a somewhat chaotic distribution of local maxima and minima. However, on larger scales the column density shows a smooth, grand design spiral pattern with two principal spiral arms. The extent and density of these two arms are roughly equal in the 21 cm map, unlike the optical image. These neutral hydrogen arms are very well correlated with the positions of H II regions. The observed velocity field of NGC 3359 shows large kinematical deviations from simple rotation. The locations of the disturbances are closely correlated with the optical and 21 cm spiral structure, and indicate that significant spiral streaming motions are present in the arms. We have performed numerical modeling of the galaxy, using the well-known "beam scheme" hydrodynamical code, to attempt to reproduce the observed kinematics. Two types of model have been employed. In the first, the spiral structure is driven by an inhomogeneous, triaxial bar, whose density distribution is determined from near infrared surface photometry. The alternative is an oval distortion of the underlying disk surface density. In models which depend solely on the triaxial bar, the kinematical perturbations in the galaxy's outer regions are far too weak, relative to those near the bar. The oval distortion models fit the observed velocities much more accurately. We conclude that the spiral structure in NGC 3359 cannot be driven entirely by the nonaxisymmetric force produced by the observed optical bar.

Book Spiral Structure in Galaxies

Download or read book Spiral Structure in Galaxies written by Marc S Seigar and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2017-06-29 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does it happen that billions of stars can cooperate to produce the beautiful spirals that characterize so many galaxies, including ours? This book reviews the history behind the discovery of spiral galaxies and the problems faced when trying to explain the existence of spiral structure within them. In the book, subjects such as galaxy morphology and structure are addressed as well as several models for spiral structure. The evidence in favor or against these models is discussed. The book ends by discussing how spiral structure can be used as a proxy for other properties of spiral galaxies, such as their dark matter content and their central supermassive black hole masses, and why this is important.
