The nature of late-type spiral galaxies: structural parameters, optical and near-infrared colour profiles, and dust extinction

TL;DR: In this paper, the surface brightness profiles of 18 Sb-Sd galaxies were extracted by combining high-resolution HST images with ground-based NIR observations, which cover the whole disk and provide the highest possible resolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

A SINFONI view of circum-nuclear star-forming rings in spiral galaxies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present near-infrared (H- and K-band) integral field observations of the circumnuclear star formation rings in five nearby spiral galaxies and use the relative intensities of different emission lines (FeII, HeI, Brγ) to age date the stellar clusters present along the rings.
Journal Article

Star-Forming Nuclear Rings in Spiral Galaxies

TL;DR: In this article, a study of how star formation progresses along nuclear star-forming rings in five spiral galaxies, based on near-infrared SINFONI integral-field observations at the VLT, is presented.
