A simple model for explaining Galaxy Rotation Curves [PDF]

open access: yesGalaxies 2018, 6(3), 70, 2018
A new simple expression for the circular velocity of spiral galaxies is proposed and tested against HI Nearby Galaxy Survey (THINGS) data set. Its accuracy is compared with the one coming from MOND.

Modern Supernova Search [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Supernovae play a critical role in observational cosmology as well as in astrophysics of stars and galaxies. Recent era has seen dramatic progress in the research of supernovae.

Galaxy Classification: A machine learning approach for classifying shapes using numerical data [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
The classification of galaxies as spirals or ellipticals is a crucial task in understanding their formation and evolution. With the arrival of large-scale astronomical surveys, such as the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), astronomers now have access to images of a vast number of galaxies.

Spiral galaxies with large optical warps [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
As a result of our statistical study of 540 edge-on galaxies, we present here the images and preliminary statistical analysis of a sub-sample of 60 galaxies, that were selected to be S-type warped spirals.

Antiprotons from dark matter annihilation in the Galaxy: Astrophysical uncertainties [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2012
The latest years have seen steady progresses in WIMP dark matter (DM) searches, with hints of possible signals suggested by both direct and indirect detection experiments. Antiprotons can play a key role validating those interpretations since they are copiously produced by WIMP annihilations in the Galactic halo, and the secondary antiproton background

Global HI profiles of spiral galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
In this paper we present short HI synthesis observations of 57 galaxies without HI information in the RC3. These are a by-product of a large survey with the WSRT of the neutral hydrogen gas in spiral and irregular galaxies.

Baryonic Tully-Fisher test of Grumiller's modified gravity model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
We test the Grumiller's quantum motivated modified gravity model, which at large distances modifies the Newtonian potential and describes the galactic rotation curves of disk galaxies in terms of a Rindler acceleration term without the need of any dark matter, against the baryonic Tully-Fisher feature that relates the total baryonic mass of a galaxy ...

Observations, Simulations, and Reasoning in Astrophysics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Astrophysics faces methodological challenges as a result of being a predominantly observation-based science without access to traditional experiments. In light of these challenges, astrophysicists frequently rely on computer simulations.

Clustering of Galaxies in Brane World Models [PDF]

open access: yesGen.Rel.Grav. 48 (2016) no.4, 47, 2015
In this paper, we analyze the clustering of galaxies using a modified Newtonian potential. This modification of the Newtonian potential occurs due to the existence of extra dimensions in brane world models. We will analyze a system of galaxies interacting with each other through this modified Newtonian potential.

ASTROPHYSICAL FRACTALS: INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM AND GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The interstellar medium is structured as a hierachy of gas clouds, that looks self-similar over 6 orders of magnitude in scales and 9 in masses. This is one of the more extended fractal in the Universe. At even larger scales, the ensemble of galaxies looks also self-similar over a certain ranges of scales, but more limited, may be over 3-4 orders of ...
