Scientific paper

We are studying 46 Grand Design spirals widely spread in types, which
have been imaged in the K-band with the ESO NTT telescope. Eleven
objects show knots strongly associated to the m = 2 Fourier component of
the spiral structure. Corotation ressonance (CR) for the two-armed
pattern have been derived for five galaxies.
