Similar Signatures of Coplanar Gas Inflow and Disk Warps in Galactic Gas Kinematic Maps
Hydrodynamic simulations suggest that galactic gas disks form when coplanar gas spirals into the inner regions of the disk. We recently presented a simple modified accretion disk model of viscous galactic disks in which star formation is fed by a radial ...

I discuss my latest observational data and ideas about decoupled gaseous subsystems in nearby lenticular galaxies. As an extreme case of inclined gaseous disks, I demonstrate a sample of inner polar disks, derive their incidence, about 10% among the ...

Radio Observations of the AGN and Gas in Low Surface Brightness Galaxies [PDF]
LSB galaxies have low metallicities, diffuse stellar disks, and massive HI disks. We have detected molecular gas in two giant LSB galaxies, UGC 6614 and F568-6. A millimeter continuum source has been detected in UGC 6614 as well.

Extended UV Disk (XUV-disk) Galaxies [PDF]
AbstractMotivated by the GALEX discovery of recent star formation in outermost regions of M83 and NGC4625, we have investigated the nature of the XUV disks with follow-up high resolution imaging and spectroscopy, and attempted to detect them at other wavelengths (IR, Hα).

Understanding the Fundamental Plane and the Tully Fisher Relation
The relation between early type galaxy size, surface brightness and velocity dispersion, “the fundamental plane,” has long been understood as resulting from equilibrium in their largely pressure supported stellar dynamics.

INTERLOCKING RESONANCE PATTERNS IN GALAXY DISKS [PDF]
We have developed a method for finding dynamical resonances in disk galaxies using the change in sense of the radial component of the in-plane velocity at a resonance radius. Using simulations we show that we would expect to find these changes at corotation radii, with a weaker effect at the ILR and a small effect at the OLR. The method works well with

The Chemodynamics of the Stellar Populations in M31 from APOGEE Integrated-light Spectroscopy
We present an analysis of nearly 1000 near-infrared, integrated-light spectra from APOGEE in the inner ∼7 kpc of M31. We utilize full-spectrum fitting with A-LIST simple stellar population spectral templates that represent a population of stars with the ...

In this contribution, we will present two results we have recently obtained in studying the impact of satellite(s) accretions on stellar disks, and that concern: (1) the distribution of the eccentricities of stars in thick disks; (2) the characteristics ...

Kinematic classifications of local interacting galaxies: implications for the merger/disk classifications at high-z [PDF]
The classification of galaxy mergers and isolated disks is key for understanding the relative importance of galaxy interactions and secular evolution during the assembly of galaxies.
