3.4 Individual galaxy descriptions<br />

Below, we give descriptions of each member of the UGC FR-I sample <strong>in</strong> turn. The<br />

galaxy classifications are taken from the NASA Extragalactic Database, which lists<br />

references <strong>in</strong> which the terms used are described. Descriptions of dust properties <strong>and</strong><br />

radio sources are as presented by Verdoes Kleijn et al. (1999) <strong>and</strong> Xu et al. (2000)<br />

respectively.<br />

NGC 193 (UGC 408) This S0 galaxy has a complex gas morphology with two<br />

lanes apparent <strong>in</strong> the central regions (the most clearly def<strong>in</strong>ed lane has a width :<br />

length = 0.18). It has a core-jet radio morphology on VLA <strong>and</strong> VLBA scales. The<br />

STIS slits were aligned parallel to the galaxy major axis. The central k<strong>in</strong>ematic <strong>and</strong><br />

flux properties are listed <strong>in</strong> Table 3.5; the gas does not exhibit a regular rotation<br />

curve, though it does appear dom<strong>in</strong>ated by systematic rather than r<strong>and</strong>om motions.<br />

The fit to the central spectrum is improved by the addition of a broad component.<br />

Data for this galaxy are shown <strong>in</strong> Figure 3.2 (see key <strong>in</strong> Figure 3.1 for an explanation<br />

of these plots).<br />
