The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Kinematics of Stars and Gas in Brightest Group Galaxies—The Role of Group Dynamics [PDF]
Abstract We study the stellar and gas kinematics of the brightest group galaxies (BGGs) in dynamically relaxed and unrelaxed galaxy groups for a sample of 154 galaxies in the SAMI galaxy survey. We characterize the dynamical state of the groups using the luminosity gap between the two most luminous galaxies and the BGG offset from the ...

Evaluating galaxy dynamical masses from kinematics and jeans equilibrium in simulations [PDF]
ABSTRACT We provide prescriptions to evaluate the dynamical mass (Mdyn) of galaxies from kinematic measurements of stars or gas using analytic considerations and the VELA suite of cosmological zoom-in simulations at z = 1–5. We find that Jeans or hydrostatic equilibrium is approximately valid for galaxies of stellar masses above M⋆ ∼ 109.

Kinematical and Dynamical Modeling of Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]
Elements of kinematical and dynamical modeling of elliptical galaxies (Es) are presented. In projection, NFW models resemble Sersic models, but with a very narrow range of shapes (m=3+/-1). The total density profile of Es cannot be NFW-like because the predicted local M/L and aperture velocity dispersion within an effective radius (Re) are much lower ...

Photometry, Kinematics and Dynamics of the Barred Galaxy NGC 5383 [PDF]
NGC 5383 has often been used as a prototype of SB(s)b type galaxies, particulary in studies of gas flow. We have therefore set out to complement the existing data with surface photometry, velocity measurements in the bar and a dynamical model.

Morphology, Stellar Kinematics and Dynamics of Barred Galaxies [PDF]
A brief review is given of the morphology of barred galaxies, following Kormendy (1981, 1982). The features illustrated include bulges, bars, disks, lenses, and inner and outer rings.Most of the paper is devoted to a detailed discussion of the absorption-line velocity field of the prototypical SBO galaxy NGC 936.

Extreme kinematic misalignment in IllustrisTNG galaxies: the origin, structure, and internal dynamics of galaxies with a large-scale counterrotation [PDF]
ABSTRACT We provide an in-deep analysis of 25 galaxies with substantial counterrotation from IllustrisTNG100 simulations in the stellar mass range 2×109−3×1010 M⊙. The counterrotation is a result of an external gas infall ≈2–8 Gyr ago.
