NGC 3190 is a spiral galaxy with tightly wound arms and lying in the constellation Leo.[1] It was discovered by William Herschel in 1784. NGC 3190 is member of Hickson 44 galaxy group, estimated at around 80 million light years away,[3] and consisting of four galaxies in a tight group - NGC 3193 is fairly featureless, NGC 3187 is a dim but striking spiral galaxy and NGC 3185 has a barred spiral structure with an outer ring. It is also a member of the NGC 3190 Group of galaxies, which is a member of the Leo II Groups, a series of galaxies and galaxy clusters strung out from the right edge of the Virgo Supercluster.[4]
In 2012 Apple Inc used a blue tinted image of NGC 3190 as their desktop image for their release of OS X Mountain Lion.
Supernovae
[edit]
Two supernovae have been observed in NGC 3190:
- SN 2002bo (Type Ia, mag. 15.5) was co-discovered by Paulo Cacella and Yoji Hirose on 9 March 2002.[5][6]
- SN 2002cv (Type Ia-pec, mag. 19) was discovered by the Campo Imperatore Observatory on 9 May 2002.[7][8] This Italian team detected the supernova while studying SN 2002bo, and both of these were visible at the same time.[9][10]
