Spiral Density Waves in the Multiple-armed Galaxy NGC 628

Radial profiles of pattern speeds are measured at subkiloparsec resolution for NGC 628. The radial profiles are directly measured using a general form of the Tremaine–Weinberg method that allows for the pattern speed to vary with radius. The method is applied to both stars and CO, H i , and H α spec...
