Warped Disks and Inclined Rings around Galaxies de Stefano Casertano

Warped Disks and Inclined Rings around Galaxies

Editat de Stefano Casertano, Penny D. Sackett, Franklin H. Briggs
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 noi 2006
Most galaxies are in clusters, where tidal interactions are not uncommon. Tidal and dynamical interaction in galaxies are of importance in studying evolution. A large amount of data has been collected on dust-lane ellipticals, polar ring galaxies, spirals with extended warps, and galaxies with inclined HI rings or unusual 'tails'. This book is a record of a meeting which was held at the University of Pittsburgh. It provided an informal, yet focused environment for the interaction of astronomers who have addressed these questions with a wide variety of skills, techniques and points of view.
