Title:The spiral structure of the interacting galaxy NGC3627

Abstract:
NGC3627 is a member of the so-called Leo Triplet of galaxies. Its spiral structure has been disturbed by the 
interaction with one other member of this group, NGC3628. In this contribution we will present sub-mm data 
taken at the APEX telescope that shows various signatures of this interaction, visible in the morphology as 
well as in the kinematics of the spiral pattern.
