Description
K-band imaging was carried out on a sample of 57 spiral galaxies to map
their stellar backbones, examine the underlying mass distribution across
the arm and interarm regions, and perform bulge:disk decomposition. As
within the broader aims of the project, which also use B, I, and
Hα images, our results will be examined in the light of global
parameters including Hubble stage, Elmegreen arm class, and quantity and
distribution of recent massive star formation and dust.
