Scientific paper

Ground-based spectroscopic observations by Rubin and Kenney taken at high velocity resolution and high spatial scale show that about 20 percent of the 80 galaxies observed in the Virgo Cluster have rapidly rotating, kinematically distinct cores extending only a few arcsec. These galaxies span Hubble types E through Sc. We propose to image a sample of seven of these galaxies with the WFPC2, each in two colors (F555W and F814W). One galaxy with strong line emission (NGC 4536) will also be imaged in H-alpha. In addition, we will image 2 "normal" galaxies in the Virgo Cluster to act as a control sample.
