Dark Coincidences: Small-Scale Solutions with Refracted Gravity and MOND
Universe, 2023 General relativity and its Newtonian weak field limit are not sufficient to explain the observed phenomenology in the Universe, from the formation of large-scale structures to the dynamics of galaxies, with the only presence of baryonic matter.

Dynamics of Companion Galaxies of Early-type Galaxies [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2020 Abstract We estimated the dynamical masses of 115 early-type galaxies (ETGs) by analyzing the dynamics of satellite and companion galaxies of these ETGs. We selected galaxies with absolute magnitudes between −22 and −25 in the K s -band from the Extragalactic Distance Database. We

Dynamics of barred galaxies [PDF]
Reports on Progress in Physics, 1993 Some 30% of disc galaxies have a pronounced central bar feature in the disc plane and many more have weaker features of a similar kind. Kinematic data indicate that the bar constitutes a major non-axisymmetric component of the mass distribution and that the bar pattern tumbles rapidly about the axis normal to the disc plane.

Galaxy Zoo: Mergers – Dynamical models of interacting galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016 The dynamical history of most merging galaxies is not well understood. Correlations between galaxy interaction and star formation have been found in previous studies, but require the context of the physical history of merging systems for full insight into the processes that lead to enhanced star formation.

DYNAMICAL FRICTION IN CUSPY GALAXIES [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2014 In this paper we treat the problem of the dynamical friction decay of a massive object moving in an elliptical galaxy with a cuspidal inner distribution of the mass density. We present results obtained by both self-consistent, direct summation, N-body simulations, as well as by a new semi-analytical treatment of dynamical friction valid in such cuspy ...

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 ...

DYNAMICAL FRICTION IN CUSPIDAL GALAXIES [PDF]
The Thirteenth Marcel Grossmann Meeting, 2015 Dynamical friction is the process responsible for matter transport toward the inner regions of galaxies in form of massive objects, like intermediate mass black holes, globular clusters and small satellite galaxies. While very bright galaxies show an almost flat luminosity profile in the inner region, fainter ones have, usually, a peaked, cuspidal ...

Dynamics of Powerful Radio Galaxies
Galaxies, 2023 Analytical models describing the dynamics of lobed radio sources are essential for interpretation of the tens of millions of radio sources that will be observed by the Square Kilometre Array and pathfinder instruments. We propose that historical models can be grouped into two classes in which the forward expansion of the radio source is driven by ...

THE ASYMMETRIC DRIFT AND THE ROTATION CURVE OF THE GALAXY
Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2014 Asymmetric drift in the solar neighbourhood is studied by the means of the RAVE data. The asymmetric drift correction is applied to the SDSS data to measure the rotation curve of the Milky Way in the extended solar neighbourhood.
