Scientific paper

A brief review is given of a theory advanced previously by the author to account for the origin and development of spiral arms in a galaxy. It is shown that a corollary of the theory may explain (a) The position of the spiral arms alternately up and down the average galactic plane (b) The change of sense of the general magnetic field while crossing the galactic plane and (c) The monotonical widening of the neutral hydrogen layer towards the edges of the Galaxy.
