Overconstrained dynamics in galaxy redshift surveys
The least-action principle (LAP) method is used on four galaxy redshift surveys to measure the density parameter Omega_m and the matter and galaxy-galaxy power spectra. The datasets are PSCz, ORS, Mark III and SFI.

Kinematics and dynamics of the M51-type galaxy pair NGC 3893/96 (KPG 302) [PDF]
We study the kinematics and dynamics of the M51-type interacting galaxy pair KPG 302 (NGC 3893/96). We analyse the distribution of the dark matter (DM) halo of the main galaxy in order to explore possible differences between DM halos of "isolated ...

We review galaxy formation and dynamics under the MOND hypothesis of modified gravity, and compare to similar galaxies in Newtonian dynamics with dark matter. The aim is to find peculiar predictions both to discriminate between various hypotheses, and to

Galaxy Zoo: Mergers – Dynamical models of interacting galaxies [PDF]
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.

Disk Galaxy Models Driven by Stochastic Self-Propagating Star Formation
We present a model of chemical and spectrophotometric evolution of disk galaxies based on a stochastic self-propagating star formation scenario. The model incorporates galaxy formation through the process of accretion, chemical and photometric evolution ...

Dynamics and Clusters of Galaxies [PDF]
Under the assumption that the inverse square central force law is a good approximation to the gravitational force, at least for large distances, the different possibilities for the evolution of the Universe are sketched. Several of the possibilities lead naturally to a dynamical classification of clusters of galaxies in an expanding universe. In one of

Proton Acceleration with Relativistic Electromagnetic Shock
New Ion Acceleration Mechanism! A novel cosmic‐ray proton acceleration mechanism is proposed, where relativistic electromagnetic shocks accelerate protons transversely. Hamiltonian analysis yields a scaling law linking the proton energy to the minimum longitudinal thickness of the shock.

On the dynamics of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy [PDF]
We use numerical simulations to test the feasibility of the suggestion by Ibata et al. (1994) that the excess population of stars which they discovered in the Sagittarius region may be the disrupted remains of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy. We find that a Fornax-like model for the pre-disruption system can indeed reproduce the data.
