Scientific paper

Comparative studies of flocculent and grand-design spirals suggest that
density waves are not the predominant trigger of star formation in most
galaxies. Implications for chemical evolution are profound. It may be
possible to ignore the details of the spiral-wave phenomenon in research
aimed at unifying the chemical properties of spiral disks.
