NGC 4323
Template:Short description Template:Infobox Galaxy
NGC 4323 is a lenticular or dwarf elliptical galaxy[1] located about 52.5 million light-years away in the constellation Coma Berenices. The galaxy was discovered in 1882 by astronomer Wilhelm Tempel[2] and is a member of the Virgo Cluster.[3]
NGC 4323 is commonly misidentified as NGC 4322, which is a 13th magnitude star.[4][5]
Interaction with Messier 100
NGC 4323 is a companion of Messier 100,[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] which lies Script error: No such module "convert". away.[7][11][15] The two galaxies appear to be interacting,[9][13][14][16] as evidenced by Messier 100's rotation curve, an asymmetry of its HI disk,[13][14] and a faint, optical bridge that connects it to NGC 4323.[8][9][10][11][14][16] However, Knapen et al. suggests that the two galaxies are not interacting as NGC 4323 is a small galaxy and has a large separation from Messier 100.[13]
