Descripción
This paper presents examples of star-forming phenomena in the discs of
spirals which show symptoms of phase-coherence over kpc scales. Cases
are found where, along an arm, the youngest blue stars are coherently
displaced from a recent but older generation of redder evolved
supergiants; in other cases, the star formation efficiency in arms
appears to be responding to a density wave resonance pattern. Cases were
also found with axisymmetric outflow in the disc components of
circumnuclear starburst zones, which could account for an evolutionary
starburst-LINER sequence.
