AbstractWith sensitive radio observations of a Virgo Cluster spiral NGC 4254 we are able to decompose thermal and synchrotron radio emission and, based on the thermal component, construct the SFR distribution within the galaxy, unaffected by dust extinction. The mean SFR per unit area is several times higher than in other galaxies of similar Hubble type. Contrary to other Virgo spirals the SFR distribution is not spatially truncated, in concordance with the observed weak HI deficiency. We propose that the SFR enhancement and the observed disturbed morphology of this galaxy can be attributed to tidal triggering by another nearby cluster member.
