The relationship of galaxy morphology to nuclear star formation in noninteracting spiral galaxies.

Three specific questions concerning the relationship between galaxian morphology and infrared properties were addressed for non-interacting galaxies: (1) Why are high infrared luminosity (L > 10¹⁰ L(⊙)) Sa galaxies scarce compared to Sb and Sc galaxies; (2) Is there a relationship between the bul...
