Feron and offers new insights into this galaxy’s inner workings. This includes the most-detailed look at the central barred region and the many smaller, wispier arms extending from it. The glowing center shows the SMBH and halo-shaped star-forming region, and illuminated dust surrounding it.
“Dusty, barred spiral galaxy NGC 1365. Interestingly, the dust bar isn’t nearly as prominent as it is in visible light. In the center is a modest active galactic nucleus . The circumnuclear dust is also quite striking. This time, I was happy to receive the PHANGS team’s reduction of the data. Makes it much easier because their mosaic was much better matched and aligned.”
