Abstract:Arp 263 is a single irregularly-shaped galaxy with intense star format ion. Its short tidal features of low brightness visible in both optics and the Hi line, as well as the strong non-circular motion of atomic gas in the outskirts, evidences a recent merging with some intruder, non-observed directly. We carried out spectral observations of this galaxy at the 6m telescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory. The spectra for three positions of the spectral slit were obtained: two of them cross the central … Show more
