Abstract
We present new radio continuum images of the supermassive, peculiar galaxy NGC 1961 at 1.5, 4.9, 8.4 and 15 GHz. NGC 1961 (Arp 184) is a very massive (dynamical mass > 1012M⊙) Sb galaxy with a peculiar and asymmetric optical appearance. Furthermore, it exhibits an unusual, asymmetric HI distribution with an extensive wing of gas extending 30 kpc to the north-west and a sharp edge to the south-east (Shostak et al. 1982).
