Abstract
In order to contribute to an understanding of collision-induced staxburst activities, we present a detailed case study on the staxburst galaxy Maxkaxian 297 (= NGC 6052 = Arp 209; hereafter Mrk 297). This galaxy is classified as a clumpy irregular galaxy (hereafter CIGs) according to its morphological properties (cf. Heidmann, 1987). Two major clumps and many small clumps are observed in the entire region of Mrk 297 (Hecquet, Coupinot, and Maucherat 1987). A typical major clump of CIGs has a diameter of a few hundred pc and its dynamical mass is estimated as an order of 108M⊙ (Taniguchi and Tamura 1987).
