P. ; van der Hulst, J. M. Abstract Radio continuum observations of NGC 1097 at 1465 MHz with the VLA reveal emission coincident with the straight, narrow dust lanes in the bar. It is believed that this is nonthermal emission produced by the shock compression of the gas, dust, and magnetic field in the bar. This shock compression is a common feature of models dealing with the gas flow in barred spiral galaxies. The present results thus provide strong evidence that the predicted shock fronts do indeed exist.
