NGC 4088 is a grand design spiral galaxy.[5] This means that the spiral arms in the galaxy's disk are sharply defined. In visible light, one of the spiral arms appears to have a disconnected segment. Halton Arp included this galaxy in the Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies as one of several examples where this phenomenon occurs.[6]

NGC 4088 and NGC 4085 are members of the M109 Group, a group of galaxies located in the constellation Ursa Major. This large group contains between 41 and 58 galaxies, including the spiral galaxy M109.[7][8][9]



Supernova 2009dd


On April 13, 2009, supernova SN 2009dd was discovered in NGC 4088.[10] At apparent magnitude 13.8,[10] it became the third-brightest supernova of 2009.[11] In 1991 there was SN1991G.

NGC 4088 = Arp 18 ist eine Balken-Spiralgalaxie vom Hubble-Typ SBbc im Sternbild Großer Bär am Nordsternhimmel. Sie ist schätzungsweise 37 Millionen Lichtjahre von der Milchstraße entfernt und hat einen Durchmesser von etwa 60.000 Lichtjahren. Die Galaxie weist auffällige Deformationen der Spiralarme auf, möglicherweise hervorgerufen durch die sich in ähnlicher Entfernung befindliche NGC 4085.
