Figure 6:

Galaxy NGC 0628 - Left panel: the color scale represents the image of the spectral index measured between 327 MHz and 1.4 GHz. Pixels with an intensity level above 3 $\sigma$ at both frequencies have been considered. Contours levels of the radio image at 1.4 GHz, starting from 3 $\sigma$ and scaling by a factor of $\sqrt {2}$ , are overlaid on the image. The FWHM of this image is $66\hbox {$^{\prime \prime }$ }\times 66\hbox {$^{\prime \prime }$ }$ . Right panel: the color scale represents the image of the spectral index uncertainty.
