Abstract: |
We have mapped the NGC 7463-7464 pair of interacting galaxies with the VLA at 1465, 4885, and 8415 MHz. The results show three distinctive features: a low frequency bridge connecting the two galaxies, box-like intensity contours in the outer part of NGC 7463, and a possible dependence of the peak radio intensity positions on frequency. The optical appearance of NGC 7463 is also box-like and suggests interesting tidal distortion. |
