On the rotation of elliptical galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1978 The tensor virial theorem is applied to models of early-type galaxies. First the theorem is applied to rotating elliptical galaxies whose constant-density surfaces are similar ellipsoids. A relationship is obtained between the observed rotations and the forms of generally triaxial galaxies.

Compact Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987 We summarize our present knowledge on low-mass high-surface brightness elliptical objects near massive galaxies that are often called M32-type or compact elliptical galaxies. The origin of the low mass of these objects is a controversial matter: is it intrinsic to their formation or produced, as classically believed, by tidal stripping from the massive

Revealing the dynamical behavior of stars in a prolate or oblate elliptical galaxy
Results in Physics, 2023 We consider the motion of a test particle (star) on the meridian plane (R,z) of an elliptical galaxy with an additional central nucleus component. The shape of the elliptical galaxy can be either prolate or oblate, or even spherical by simply changing ...

Planetary Nebulae and the Ionization of the Interstellar Medium in Galaxies
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 We discuss the role of planetary nebulae and their progeny in galaxy context in terms of ionization of the galaxy interstellar medium. This regards ionized gas outside the disk of spiral galaxies, the diffuse ionized medium in spiral galaxies, and the ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 In this paper, we present the simple, one-step, self-consistent, and fast resonance scattering model rsapec based on the AtomDB database. This model can be used as an alternative to the commonly used APEC model for fitting X-ray spectra with optically ...

Formation of Major Types of Galaxies Based on the Energy Circulation Theory
Reports in Advances of Physical Sciences, 2022 The standard cosmology can answer almost nothing about how the structure of a galaxy is formed. It expects a supermassive black hole at the center and dark matter in the halo to explain the circulation of stars and its velocity.

The orientation of elliptical galaxies [PDF]
Astrophysics and Space Science, 2010 We determine the orientations of the light distribution of individual elliptical galaxies by combining the profiles of photometric data from the literature with triaxial models. The orientation is given by a Bayesian probability distribution. The likelihood of obtaining the data from a model is a function of the parameters describing the intrinsic ...
