Galactic astronomy; Proceedings of the Second Summer Institute for Astronomy and Astrophysics, State University of New York, Stony Brook, N.Y., June 19-July 17, 1968. Volumes 1 & 2.

Basic problems on the structure of our galaxy are presented. The essentially spiral structure of the galaxies is examined by a theory of the spiral shape, and by a study of the spiral structure with the 21-cm line of neutral hydrogen. Irregular spirals are discussed, and some problems that arise as a result of large deviations from the regular spiral structure are treated. The density wave theory of spiral structure is compared with the observed spiral structure of the galaxies. A section on the star migration technique, which is used to test the density wave theory of galactic spirals, is included. The interstellar medium is described in terms of such phenomena as supernova explosions and cosmic rays, both of which contribute to the energy balance of the medium. Other topics that are germaine to a description of the interstellar medium are the UV spectrum, kinematics of interstellar clouds, and ionization equilibrium. The implications of spiral galactic shock pattern on star formation along spiral arms are investigated, and by means of a blast wave model, it is shown that a hydrodynamic shock of galactic scale exists in galaxy M82.
