Spiral Galaxies in the Near-IR Proceedings of the ESO/MPA Workshop Held at Garching, Germany, 7–9 June 1995

Spiral Galaxies in the Near-IR Proceedings of the ESO/MPA Workshop Held at Garching, Germany, 7–9 June 1995 / edited by Dante Minniti, Hans-Walter Rix.

This book contains a complete and up-to-date review of spiral galaxies, focussing on recent progress in our understanding that became possible through the arrival of array detectors for the near IR. Both state-of-the-art IR observations and theoretical modeling of disk galaxies are presented. Specia...
