Abstract

The authors have determined the central radio continuum fluxes at 6.3 and 2.8 cm from a subset of barred spiral galaxies from the Shapley Ames Catalog with the 100-m radio telescope in Effelsberg. They calculated the spectral indices for the galaxies detected and they can see a weak correlation between flat spectral index and dust temperature calculated from IRAS fluxes, that is, Td ≥ 30°K for galaxies having α206.3 ≥ -0.75. The radio continuum at both frequencies and the far-infrared fluxes are strongly correlated.
