Galaxy Zoo: comparing the demographics of spiral arm number and a new method for correcting redshift bias

The majority of galaxies in the local Universe exhibit spiral structure with a variety of forms. Many galaxies possess two prominent spiral arms, some have more, while others display a many-armed flocculent appearance. Spiral arms are associated with enhanced gas content and star formation in the di...
