An Investigation of Disk Thickness in M51 from Hα, Paα, and Mid-infrared Power Spectra

An Investigation of Disk Thickness in M51 from Hα, Paα, and Mid-infrared Power Spectra

Power spectra (PS) of high-resolution images of M51 (NGC 5194) taken with the Hubble Space Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have been examined for evidence of disk thickness in the form of a change in slope between large scales, which map two-dimensional correlated structures, and...
