- Description:
- Detectors like the IPCS and CCD make it possible to study strong velocity gradients at high spatial resolution even in the presence of large intensity gradients. Strong velocity gradients indicating galactic shocks have been found in NGC 1365 at the inner side of a spiral arm, at the leading edges of the bar, and in the nuclear region. The shocks in the nuclear region are suggested to be caused by rapid twisting of closed orbits at the position of the ILR.
