Retarded Gravity in Disk Galaxies

Symmetry
Disk galaxies have a typical dimension of a few tens of kiloparsecs. It follows from the theory of general relativity that any signal originating from the galactic center will be noticed at the outskirts of the galaxy only tens of thousands of years later.

The Disk of Our Galaxy [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2009
AbstractWe review our knowledge about the spiral structure of the disk of our Galaxy using tracers of star formation. These tracers reveal a 4-arm picture of the Galaxy.

The Stability of Galaxy Disks

, 2013
We calculate the stellar surface mass density (Sigma_*) and two-component (gas+stars) disk stability (Q_RW) for 25 late-type galaxies from the DiskMass Survey. These calculations are based on fits of a dynamical model to our ionized-gas and stellar kinematic data performed using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling of the Bayesian posterior ...

Counter-Rotation in Disk Galaxies

, 2014
Counter-rotating galaxies host two components rotating in opposite directions with respect to each other. The kinematic and morphological properties of lenticulars and spirals hosting counter-rotating components are reviewed. Statistics of the counter-rotating galaxies and analysis of their stellar populations provide constraints on the formation ...
