Coded NGC 3690 in the New General Catalog , a system consisting of two gravitational interaction galaxies about 700 million tons ago. The interaction between the two causes NGC 3690 to see the formation of a spectacular new star.

In the last 15 years, there have been six cataclysmic supernova explosions in the outer regions of the galaxy, making NGC 3690 a well-known supernova factory. Ursa Major (the Great Doer) has a score of 150 according to the NGC 3690 Ultra-Bright Infrared Galaxy (ULIRG).

In addition, NGC 3690 is also the 299th galaxy in Arp's Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies notebook and Arp code 299. 171st in BE Markarian's Galaxy Catalog Notebook .

The Hubble Antarctic Telescope's NGC 3690 imaging system became a NASA phenomenon and from April 24, 2008 to the 59th the 18th Hubble.

Further information

For ^10-11 hours, the Sun will become an additional object for local partners alongside the Bright Infrared Galaxy (LIRG). On a bolometric scale of comparable brightness, LIRG galaxies score even higher than galaxies, Seyfert galaxies, and optically selected quasi- stellar objects.

While the galaxy includes 10 ¹² stars (ULIRG) in the ultra-bright infrared galaxy . Although not all LIRGs can be promoted to ULIRGs. Astronomers have found that ULIRG is more likely to contain an active galactic nucleus (AGN), LIRG.

ULIRG is one of the best evolving galaxies in the world, namely a spiral system or spiral system. The first phase of the galaxy fusion, blushing in ULIRG, is also marked as LIRG, and the final phase of the fusion that produces a single giant elliptical galaxy.

LIRG appears brighter in the infrared spectrum than in the optical spectrum because visible light is absorbed by large amounts of dust and then radiates heat energy back into the infrared spectrum.
