Disk Galaxies Are Self-similar: The Universality of the H i-to-Halo Mass Ratio for Isolated Disks
Observed scaling relations in galaxies between baryons and dark matter global properties are key to shed light on the process of galaxy formation and on the nature of dark matter.

Rotation Curve of the Milky Way from Classical Cepheids [PDF]
Flat rotation curves of spiral galaxies are considered as an evidence for dark matter, but the rotation curve of the Milky Way is difficult to measure.

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 ...

CONSTRAINTS ON THE DECOMPOSITION OF THE ROTATION CURVES OF SPIRAL GALAXIES [PDF]
I discuss anew how arguments about the internal dynamics of galactic disks set constraints on the otherwise ambiguous decomposition of the rotation curves of spiral galaxies into the contributions by the various constituents of the galaxies. Analyzing the two sample galaxies NGC 3198 and NGC 2985 I conclude from the multiplicities of the spiral arms ...

Galaxy rotation curves in modified gravity models [PDF]
In this work, we investigate the possibility that the galaxy rotation curves can be explained in the framework of modified gravity models that introduce a Yukawa term in the gravitational potential.

Birkhoff’s theorem (1923) states that in the framework of General Relativity the only solution to the central symmetric gravitational field in vacuum is the Schwarzschild metric.

Rotation Curves of High-Luminosity Spiral Galaxies and the Rotation Curve of our Galaxy [PDF]
Rotation curves of high luminosity spiral galaxies are flat, to distances as great as r=49 kpc. This implies a significant mass at large r. Rotational velocities increase about 20 km/s across a spiral arm, as predicted by the density wave theory. By analogy, it is suggested that our Galaxy has a flat rotation curve out to r∼60 kpc, with V ∼ constant at

Hickson 62.I. Kinematics of NGC4778 [PDF]
Detailed studies of the photometric and kinematical properties of compact groups of galaxies are crucial to understand the physics of galaxy interactions and to shed light on some aspects of galaxy formation and evolution.

Rotation Curve and Mass Distribution in the Galactic Center - From Black Hole to Entire Galaxy [PDF]
Analyzing high-resolution longitude-velocity (LV) diagrams of the Galactic Center observed with the Nobeyama 45-m telescope in the CO and CS line emissions, we obtain a central rotation curve of the Milky Way.

PROBES. I. A Compendium of Deep Rotation Curves and Matched Multiband Photometry
We present the Photometry and Rotation Curve Observations from Extragalactic Surveys (PROBES) compendium of extended rotation curves for 3163 late-type spirals, with matching homogeneous multiband photometry for 1677 of them.
