Dark matter distribution in the Coma cluster from galaxy kinematics: breaking the mass-anisotropy degeneracy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We study velocity moments of elliptical galaxies in the Coma cluster using Jeans equations. The dark matter distribution in the cluster is modelled by a generalized formula based upon the results of cosmological N-body simulations. Its inner slope (cuspy

Mapping the dynamics, star-formation rates, and chemical properties of galaxies with integral field spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Major advances in the development of instruments for eight and ten meter class telescopes are revolutionising our understanding of galaxy formation. In particular, Integral Field Spectrographs (which produce a three dimensional {x, y, velocity) map of a ...

Jormungandr: A Large Substructure Circling the Milky Way Identified from Gaia DR3 Data

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report the discovery of a large substructure in the Milky Way passing through the solar neighborhood, detected in actions $\left({J}_{\phi },{J}_{{\rm{R}}}\right)$ calculated from Gaia DR3 data.

Kinematical Fluctuations Vary with Galaxy Surface Mass Density

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The Galaxy inner parts are generally considered to be optically symmetric, as well as kinematically symmetric for most massive early-type galaxies. At the lower-mass end, many galaxies contain lots of small patches in their velocity maps, causing their ...

Unified Analysis of Fermionic Tunneling, Barrow‐Exponential Entropy Corrections, and Plasma Lensing in Carrollian Reissner‐Nordström Spacetime

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 3, March 2026.
Carrollian Reissner‐Nordström black holes are investigated through fermionic tunneling, entropy‐corrected thermodynamics, and plasma‐modified gravitational lensing. The generalized uncertainty principle introduces minimal‐length corrections to the Hawking temperature, while the combined Barrow‐Exponential entropy reveals smooth thermodynamic crossovers

The Planetary Nebula Spectrograph: The Green Light for Galaxy Kinematics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Planetary nebulae (PNe) are now well established as probes of galaxy dynamics and as standard candles in distance determinations. Motivated by the need to improve the efficiency of planetary nebulae searches and the speed with which their radial ...

Phoenix Dwarf Galaxy Stellar Kinematics

open access: yes, 2011
The Phoenix dwarf galaxy is the nearest and most typical representative of the class of the so-called transition dwarf galaxies (from spheroidal to irregular).

Resolved Stellar and Nebular Kinematics of a Star-forming Galaxy at z ∼ 2

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The kinematics of star-forming galaxy populations at high redshifts are integral to our understanding of disk properties, merger rates, and other defining characteristics.

Similar Signatures of Coplanar Gas Inflow and Disk Warps in Galactic Gas Kinematic Maps

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
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 ...

Discovery and Initial Investigation of a New Low Surface Brightness Planetary Nebula Candidate at High Galactic Latitude

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Planetary nebulae represent a late evolutionary phase of low‐ to intermediate‐mass stars. In this article, we present the serendipitous discovery of a previously unknown, faint potential Galactic planetary nebula (PN) in the constellation Camelopardalis, identified during a survey‐inspection, aiming at the detection of dwarf companions of the ...
