Scientific paper

In an effort to understand the evolution of morphological features spanning Sa to Sd galaxies, we have performed an analysis of 12 spiral galaxies in the Chandra X-Ray Observatory archives. While galaxies with spiral morphology display the presence of a galactic disk and arms, the variation in these and other features from early- to late-type spirals may hold information into the formation and evolution of spiral galaxies.
We have analyzed both the diffuse gas emission of the galaxies as well as their associated point source populations. The properties of the X-ray emitting populations will be discussed. Correlations highlighting the separation in spiral morphology as well as relations that can be used to better understand spiral galaxy evolution will be presented.
