Scientific paper

We have undertaken a multiwavelength study of nearby face-on spiral galaxy NGC 3631. Data sets include 21 cm line data from the VLA with 14" resolution, radio continuum data at 6cm and 20 cm with 4" resolution, optical data from the WIYN 3.5m, and Chandra X-ray data. Preliminary results are interesting, including what appears to be a hole in the center of the galaxy in both the Hα and radio continuum images. There is also evidence of tidally removed HI near the edge of the disk. The research is ongoing and was supported in part by the REU and ASSURE programs through NSF award AST-0453442.
