Phase-Space Correlations among Systems of Satellite Galaxies
Driven by the increasingly complete observational knowledge of systems of satellite galaxies, mutual spatial alignments and relations in velocities among satellites belonging to a common host have become a productive field of research.

Surface Density of Disk Galaxies in MOND
In this paper, we extend a paper by Milgrom (2009, MNRAS 398, 1023) dealing with the existence of a quasi-universal surface density for object of all mass and structure, if they are in the Newtonian regime, i.e., that their mean acceleration is larger ...

Spirality: A Novel Way to Measure Spiral Arm Pitch Angle
We present the MATLAB code Spirality, a novel method for measuring spiral arm pitch angles by fitting galaxy images to spiral templates of known pitch. Computation time is typically on the order of 2 min per galaxy, assuming 8 GB of working memory.

Direct Imaging of a Toroidal Magnetic Field in the Inner Jet of NRAO 150
Most formation models and numerical simulations cause a helical magnetic field to form, accelerate and collimate jets in active galactic nuclei (AGN). For this reason, observational direct evidence for the existence of these helical magnetic fields is of

A New View of the Size-Mass Distribution of Galaxies: Using $r_{20}$ and $r_{80}$ instead of $r_{50}$ [PDF]
When investigating the sizes of galaxies it is standard practice to use the half-light radius, $r_{50}$. Here we explore the effects of the size definition on the distribution of galaxies in the size -- stellar mass plane.

New Strong Constraints on the Central Behaviour of Spherical Galactic Models
First of all, we show that any spherically symmetric galactic model with integrated mass profile M(r)→0 as r→0 is physically correct close to the centre only provided that the circular velocity vc(r)→0 and the gravitational field g(r)→0 as r→0.

Emission Knots and Polarization Swings of Swinging Jets
Knots (emission features in jets of active galactic nuclei) often show non-ballistic dynamics and variable emission/polarization properties. We model these features as emission pattern propagating in a jet that carries a helical magnetic field and is ...
