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

Kinematics of gas in a triaxial galaxy
The Astrophysical Journal, 1989 The morphology and kinematics of cold gas in a triaxial Staeckel potential are discussed. The properties of the gas disks and rings and their projections are examined. How observations of a ring or disk can be used to constrain the orientation of the galaxy with respect to the observer and how the intrinsic shape can be determined are analyzed, and it ...

A Shocked Wind Interpretation of an Odd Radio Circle
The Astrophysical JournalOdd radio circles (ORCs) are a new class of extragalactic object, with large rings of faint radio continuum emission typically spanning hundreds of kiloparsecs; their origins are unknown.

Secondary evolution of galaxies investigated by N-body simulations
, 2008 In the ΛCDM cosmology, merging is one of the most important physical processes that drives the formation and evolution of galaxies. In the present work, we use N-body techniques to investigate some of currently open issues related to the formation and ...

Structure and kinematics of the nearby dwarf galaxy UGCA 105
, 2013 Owing to their shallow stellar potential, dwarf galaxies possess thick gas disks, which makes them good candidates for studies of the galactic vertical kinematical structure.

WALLABY Pilot Survey: Characterizing Low-rotation Kinematically Modeled Galaxies
The Astrophysical JournalMany of the tensions in cosmological models of the Universe lie in the low-mass, low-velocity regime. Probing this regime requires a statistically significant sample of galaxies with well-measured kinematics and robustly measured uncertainties.

Handy Relation between Binary Black Hole Merger Times and Host Galaxy Properties
The Astrophysical Journal LettersOver the past 15 yr, the evidence has clearly demonstrated that massive black hole (MBH) binary merger timescales depend strongly on the structural and kinematic properties of their host galaxy.

Simulating molecular cloud regulated star formation in Galaxies [PDF]
, 2007 This thesis is primarily concerned with understanding the process of galaxy formation via the simulation of the interstellar medium, star formation and supernova feedback.

Galaxy kinematics from counter-dispersed imaging
, 1999 Determining the internal kinematics of a galaxy from planetary nebulae (PN) is usually a two-step process in which the candidate PN are first identified in a target galaxy and then, in a follow-up run, spectra are obtained.

The Intrinsic Flattening of Galaxy Disks
The Astrophysical JournalHighly inclined (edge-on) disk galaxies offer the unique perspective to constrain their intrinsic flattening, c / a , where c and a are, respectively, the vertical and long radial axes of the disk measured at suitable stellar densities.
