astro.wikisort.org - GalaxyNGC 1313 (also known as the Topsy Turvy Galaxy[2]) is a field galaxy[3] and a barred spiral galaxy[4] discovered by the Scottish astronomer James Dunlop on 27 September 1826.[5] It has a diameter of about 50,000 light-years, or about half the size of the Milky Way.[6]

Topsy Turvy Galaxy, PGC 12286, ESO 082- G 011 |
NGC 1313 lies within the Virgo Supercluster.[7]
In 2007, a rare WO star was discovered in NGC 1313,[8] currently known by its only designation of [HC2007] 31. It is of spectral type WO3.[8] The derived absolute magnitude is about -5,[8] which is very high for a single WO star. (WOs usually have absolute magnitudes of about -1 to -4) This means that the WO is likely part of a binary or a small stellar association.[8]
Features
NGC 1313 has a strikingly uneven shape and its axis of rotation is not exactly in its centre.[9] NGC 1313 also shows strong starburst activity[10] and associated supershells.[11] NGC 1313 is dominated by scattered patches of intense star formation, which gives the galaxy a rather ragged appearance.[12] The uneven shape, the ragged appearance and the strong starburst can all be explained by a galactic collision in the past.[13] However, NGC 1313 seems to be an isolated galaxy and has no direct neighbours. Therefore, it is not clear whether it has swallowed a small companion in its past.[2]
Young, blue stars are scattered across the galaxy.[14] This is evidence of infant mortality in which the young open clusters quickly became gravitationally "unglued", scattering their resident stars into the galaxy.[15] The galaxy bears some resemblance to the Magellanic Clouds[16] and hosts two ultraluminous X-ray sources, called NGC 1313 X-1 and X-2.[17] The former is a rare intermediate-mass black hole.[18][19]

NGC 1313 ist eine Balkenspiralgalaxie vom Hubble-Typ SB(s)d im Sternbild Netz am Südsternhimmel. Sie ist schätzungsweise 14 Millionen Lichtjahre von der Milchstraße entfernt, hat einen Durchmesser von etwa 50.000 Lj und als sogenannte Starburstgalaxie klassifiziert.
Auffallend ist die ungleichmäßige Form der Spiralarme, deren Rotationsachse zudem nicht genau im Zentrum liegt.[3]
16 Bogenminuten südöstlich von NGC 1313 befindet sich eine weitere Balkenspiralgalaxie (vom Hubble-Typ SBb), welche als NGC 1313A (= PGC 12457, ESO 83-1) bezeichnet wird. In NGC 1313 wurden bisher zwei Supernovae gesichtet, nämlich SN 1962M (Typ II-P) und SN 1987K (Typ IIb).
