Investigation of the halo effect in the evolution of a nonstationary disk of spiral galaxies

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2023
In this article, we consider the problem of the evolution of the disk subsystem of galaxies, taking into account their halos. The global structure of the disk of galaxies strongly depends on the mass and shape of the halo.

On the Significance of the Thick Disks of Disk Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Thick disks are a prevalent feature observed in numerous disk galaxies, including our own Milky Way. Their significance has been reported to vary widely, ranging from a few percent to 100% of the disk mass, depending on the galaxy and the measurement ...

Edge‐on disk galaxies in the SDSS DR6: Fractions of bulgeless and other disk galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, 2009
AbstractThe aim of this study is to determine the fractions of different spiral galaxy types, especially bulgeless disks, from a complete and homogeneous sample of 15 127 edge‐on disk galaxies extracted from the sixth data release from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.

Disk Galaxies and Galaxy Disks [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2000
The conference Galaxy Disks and Disk Galaxies, sponsored by the Vatican Observatory, was held in June 12-16, 2000 at the Pontifical Gregorian University, in Rome (Italy). The meeting hosted about 230 participants coming from 30 countries. The very full program consisted of 29 review papers, 34 invited talks, and more than 180 posters.

GALAXY DISKS ARE SUBMAXIMAL [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2011
We measure the contribution of galaxy disks to the overall gravitational potential of 30 nearly face-on intermediate-to-late-type spirals from the DiskMass Survey. The central vertical velocity dispersion of the disk stars, sigma(z,R=0), is related to the maximum rotation speed (Vmax) as sigma(z,R=0) ~ 0.26 Vmax, consistent with previous measurements ...

Quenching of Massive Disk Galaxies in the IllustrisTNG Simulation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
A rare population of massive disk galaxies have been found to invade the red sequence dominated by early-type galaxies. The formation and origins of these red/quenched massive disk galaxies have recently gained great interest.

Estimating the Oblateness of Dark Matter Halos Using Neutral Hydrogen Velocity Dispersion

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We derive the oblateness parameter q of the dark matter halo of a sample of gas-rich, face-on disk galaxies. We have assumed that the halos are triaxial in shape but their axes in the disk plane ( a and b ) are equal, so that q = c / a measures the halo ...

Are Disks of Satellites Comprised of Tidal Dwarf Galaxies?

open access: yesGalaxies, 2021
It was found that satellites of nearby galaxies can form flattened co-rotating structures called disks of satellites or planes of satellites. Their existence is not expected by the current galaxy formation simulations in the standard dark matter-based ...
