Internal kinematics of spiral galaxies in distant clusters. Part II. Observations and data analysis

open access: yes, 2004
We have conducted an observing campaign with FORS at the ESO-VLT to explore the kinematical properties of spiral galaxies in distant galaxy clusters.

A Slowly Pulsating Run‐Away B Star at High Galactic Latitude Ejected From a Spiral Arm

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 5, June 2025.
ABSTRACT We report the discovery of the young B6 V run‐away star LAMOST J083323.18 + 430825.4, 2.5 kpc above the Galactic plane. Its atmospheric parameters and chemical composition are determined from LAMOST spectra, indicating normal composition. Effective temperature (Teff$$ {T}_{\mathrm{eff}} $$ = 14,500$$ \mathrm{14,500} $$ K) and gravity (logg ...

H-alpha Kinematics of the SINGS Nearby Galaxies Survey. II

open access: yes, 2008
This is the second part of an H-alpha kinematics follow-up survey of the Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey (SINGS) sample. The aim of this program is to shed new light on the role of baryons and their kinematics and on the dark/luminous matter ...

Kinematics of Giant Low Surface Brightness Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1999
AbstractHigh sensitivity H I observations now exist for six giant low surface brightness (LSB) disk galaxies including the two prototypes, Malin 1 (Bothun et al. 1987; Impey & Bothun 1989) and F568-6 (also known as Malin 2; Bothun et al. 1990). Their H I surface brightnesses are generally low, but proportionally not as low as their optical surface ...

Identifying Signatures of Inflow onto Face-on Galaxies Using the Balmer Decrement

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Isolated star-forming galaxies require inflows of fresh gas from the surrounding medium to sustain episodes of star formation over time. However, there are very few direct detections of accretion onto external galaxies.

Identifying substructure associations in the Milky Way halo using chemo-kinematic tagging

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The Milky Way halo has been built-up over cosmic time through the accretion and dissolution of star clusters and dwarf galaxies as well as through their complex interactions with the Galactic disc.

The Strength of Bisymmetric Modes in SDSS-IV/MaNGA Barred Galaxy Kinematics

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-IV/Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory (MaNGA) Survey data provide an unprecedented opportunity to study the internal motions of galaxies and, in particular, represent the largest sample of barred galaxy ...

Updated Results on the Galaxy-Halo Connection from Satellite Kinematics in SDSS

open access: yes, 2018
We present new results on the relationship between central galaxies and dark matter haloes inferred from observations of satellite kinematics in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) DR7.

Closing the Gap between Observed Low-mass Galaxy H i Kinematics and Cold Dark Matter Predictions

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Testing the standard cosmological model (ΛCDM) at small scales is challenging. Galaxies that inhabit low-mass dark matter halos provide an ideal test bed for dark matter models by linking observational properties of galaxies at small scales (low mass ...

Exploration of Halo Substructures in Integrals-of-motion Space with Gaia Data Release 3

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Using kinematic data from the Gaia Data Release 3 catalog, along with metallicity estimates robustly derived from Gaia BP/RP spectra, we have explored the Galactic stellar halo in search of both known and potentially new substructures.
