Galaxy rotation curve from classical Cepheids [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, 2019
AbstractThe galaxy rotation curve is usually assumed to be flat. However, some galaxies have rotation curves that are lower than the flat rotation curve. In our galaxy, the Keplerian rotation of interstellar clouds in the galactic longitude l = 135° was observed. We use a kinematic approach to derive the rotational velocity of classical Cepheids.

The AGN and Gas Disk in the Low Surface Brightness Galaxy PGC045080 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We present radio observations and optical spectroscopy of the giant low surface brightness (LSB) galaxy PGC 045080 (or 1300+0144). PGC 045080 is a moderately distant galaxy having a highly inclined optical disk and massive HI gas content. Radio continuum

galkin: A new compilation of Milky Way rotation curve data

open access: yesSoftwareX, 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,

Dark Matter Dogma: A Study of 214 Galaxies

open access: yesGalaxies, 2020
The aim of this paper is to test the need for non-baryonic dark matter in the context of galactic rotation and the apparent difference between distributions of galactic mass and luminosity.

Light deflection angle through velocity profile of galaxies in f(R) model

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2021
We explore a new realisation of the galactic scale dynamics via gravitational lensing phenomenon in power-law f(R) gravity theory of the type $$f(R)\propto R^{1+\delta }$$ f ( R ) ∝ R 1 + δ with ...

Modeling of Spiral Structure in a Multi-Component Milky Way-Like Galaxy

open access: yesGalaxies, 2021
Using recent observational data, we construct a set of multi-component equilibrium models of the disk of a Milky Way-like galaxy. The disk dynamics are studied using collisionless-gaseous numerical simulations, based on the joined integration of the ...

Mass Distribution in Rotating Thin-Disk Galaxies According to Newtonian Dynamics

open access: yesGalaxies, 2014
An accurate computational method is presented for determining the mass distribution in a mature spiral galaxy from a given rotation curve by applying Newtonian dynamics for an axisymmetrically rotating thin disk of finite size with or without a central ...

Imprint of Pressure on Characteristic Dark Matter Profiles: The Case of ESO0140040

open access: yesGalaxies, 2020
We investigate the dark matter distribution in the spiral galaxy ESO0140040, employing the most widely used density profiles: the pseudo-isothermal, exponential sphere, Burkert, Navarro-Frenk-White, Moore and Einasto profiles.

On the density within the dark-matter core in our galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2007
Assuming that the disc of our Galaxy, the Milky Way, obeys the classical exponential law, that it is maximal and the Sun is rather far from the maximum of its circular velocity, one finds that, most likely, the galactic corona (subsystem containing the ...

An Updated View of the Milky Way from Maser Astrometry

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Astrometric observations of maser sources in the Milky Way, using the Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) technique, have been exploited to determine the spiral structure of our Galaxy. Several major spiral arms have now been pinpointed in the first
