The host of GRB 060206 : kinematics of a distant galaxy [PDF]
, 2008 Context. GRB afterglow spectra are sensitive probes of interstellar matter along the line-of-sight in their host galaxies, as well as in intervening galaxies. The rapid fading of GRBs makes it very difficult to obtain spectra of sufficient resolution and

galkin: A new compilation of Milky Way rotation curve data
SoftwareX, 2017 We present galkin, a novel compilation of kinematic measurements tracing the rotation curve of our Galaxy together with a tool to treat the data. The compilation is optimised to Galactocentric radii between 3 and 20 kpc and includes the kinematics of gas,

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: kinematics of dusty early-type galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017 Recently, large samples of visually classified early-type galaxies (ETGs) containing dust have been identified using space-based infrared observations with the Herschel Space Telescope. The presence of large quantities of dust in massive ETGs is peculiar as X-ray halos of these galaxies are expected to destroy dust in 10 Myr (or less). This has sparked

The Pristine Inner Galaxy Survey (PIGS) I: tracing the kinematics of metal-poor stars in the Galactic bulge [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2019 Our Galaxy is known to contain a central boxy/peanut-shaped bulge, yet the importance of a classical, pressure-supported component within the central part of the Milky Way is still being debated.

Made-to-measure dynamical particle models of elliptical galaxies [PDF]
, 2007 NMAGIC modelling: Syer and Tremaine (1996) proposed a made-to-measure (M2M) algorithmto construct N-particle systems from observational data and used it to generate a triaxial model from density observables.

The Stellar Kinematics of Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987 The kinematic properties of elliptical galaxies are summarized. New developments are discussed in four areas: (i) the Faber-Jackson relation and the role of second parameters (ii) the luminosity-rotation relation (iii) the figures of elliptical galaxies and (iv) the mass-to-light ratio as a function of radius.

THE SINS/zC-SINF SURVEY OF z ∼ 2 GALAXY KINEMATICS: EVIDENCE FOR POWERFUL ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEUS-DRIVEN NUCLEAR OUTFLOWS IN MASSIVE STAR-FORMING GALAXIES [PDF]
, 2013 We report the detection of ubiquitous powerful nuclear outflows in massive (⩾1011 M☉) z ∼ 2 star-forming galaxies (SFGs), which are plausibly driven by an active galactic nucleus (AGN).

KINEMATICS OF M51-TYPE INTERACTING GALAXIES [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2016 ABSTRACT We present a kinematic catalog for 21 M51-type galaxies. It consists of radial velocity distributions observed with long-slit spectroscopy along different position angles, for both the main and satellite components. We detect deviations from circular motion in most of the main galaxies of each pair, due to the gravitational ...

THE SINS/zC-SINF SURVEY OF z ∼ 2 GALAXY KINEMATICS: EVIDENCE FOR GRAVITATIONAL QUENCHING [PDF]
, 2013 As part of the SINS/zC-SINF surveys of high-z galaxy kinematics, we derive the radial distributions of Hα surface brightness, stellar mass surface density, and dynamical mass at ∼2 kpc resolution in 19 z ∼ 2 star-forming disks with deep SINFONI adaptive ...
