Barree spiral galaxy NGC 613 in the Sculptor - Barred spiral galaxy NGC 613 in...

IMAGE number
PIX4609353
Image title
Barree spiral galaxy NGC 613 in the Sculptor - Barred spiral galaxy NGC 613 in Sculptor - Image of the barree spiral galaxy NGC 613 realized by the Very Large Telescope in December 2001. Unlike most barred spirals, this galaxy has multiple arms. It's assumed that a black hole sits in its center. Barred spiral galaxy NGC 613 obtained with the FORS1 and FORS2 multi - mode instruments (at VLT MELIPAL and YEPUN, respectively) on December 16 - 18, 2001. It is a composite of three exposures in different wavebands. NGC 613 is a beautiful barred spiral galaxy in the southern constellation Sculptor. This galaxy is inclined by 32 degrees and, contrary to most barred spirals, has many arms that give it a tentacular appearance. Prominent dust lanes are visible along the large - scale bar. Extensive star - formation occurs in this area, at the ends of the bar, and also in the nuclear regions of the galaxy. The gas at the centre, as well as the radio properties are indicative of the presence of a massive black hole in the centre of NGC 613
