Evidence for Secular Evolution in Late-Type Spirals
TL;DR: In this paper, the surface brightness profiles of late-type spiral galaxies are best fit by two exponentials and the ratio of bulge and disk scale lengths takes on a restricted range of values and is uncorrelated with Hubble type.

TL;DR: In this article, a large sample of nearby galaxies is used to quantify the star formation activity in the local Universe, which consists of 334 galaxies across all Hubble types from S 0/a to Im and with recession velocities of between 0 and 3000 km/s.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Central Region in M100: Observations and Modeling
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present high-resolution observations of the center of the late-type spiral M100 (NGC 4321) supplemented by 3D numerical modeling of stellar and gas dynamics, including star formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The striking near-infrared morphology of the inner region in m100
TL;DR: In this article, the optical and NIR K-band images of the inner 3 kpc region of the nearby Virgo spiral M100 (NGC 4321) display remarkable morphological changes with wavelength.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and star formation in disk galaxies I. Sample selection and near infrared imaging
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented near-infrared imaging of a sample of 57 relatively large, Northern spiral galaxies with low inclination, and derived the basic parameters of these components, as well as the bulge/disk ratio, and explore correlations of these parameters with several galaxy parameters.
