(Redirected from Arp 162)
Galaxy in the constellation Leo Minor
It has a peculiar morphology, and is listed in Halton Arp's Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies as Arp 162. The outer disc is nearly face-on, and the inner disk has a higher ellipticity and perhaps a central bar. There is a radio source that is powered by a central active galactic nucleus.
