Heller (Goettingen), and R.S. de Jong (Durham | Abstract: | High-resolution NIR and optical images are used to constrain a dynamical model of the circumnuclear star forming (SF) region in the barred galaxy M100 (=NGC 4321). Subarcsecond resolution allowed us to distinguish important morphological details which are easily misinterpreted when using images at lower resolution. Small leading arms observed in our K-band image of the nuclear region are reproduced in the gas flow in our model, and lead us to believe that part of the K light comes from young stars, which trace the gas flow. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9509153 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
