Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1964 The title which the organizers of the Symposium have suggested for this introductory report covers an enormous domain. Even if one limits oneself, as I intend to do, to the large-scale structure, it is impossible to summarize this adequately in one communication.

Spiral structure of our Galaxy and of other galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1970 Time and again Dr. B. Bok publishes his reviews on the state of optical searches of the spiral arms in our Galaxy. A great optimist at the beginning, concerning the agreement of different results, he became later more critical in his conclusions. But in his paper of 1967 he claims anew, as well established, that we can trace the spiral arms up to a ...

Spiral structure in external galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1970 The need for observing at least four different categories of optical objects for a satisfactory definition of optical spiral structure is emphasized. A sequence of optical form-types for the description of spiral structure is outlined. A pronounced difference in the nature of the spiral structure of the outer and inner parts of Messier 33 is ...

The Distribution of Open Clusters in the Galaxy
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 In this work we explore the new catalog of galactic open clusters that became available recently, containing 1,750 clusters that have been re-analyzed using the Gaia DR2 catalog to determine the stellar memberships.

Properties of galaxies with ring structures [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2021 Aims. We present a statistical analysis of different characteristics of ringed spiral galaxies with the aim of assessing the effects of rings on disk galaxy properties. Methods. We built a catalog of ringed galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 14 (SDSS-DR14).

The Principle of Maximum Entropy and the Distribution of Mass in Galaxies
Universe, 2022 We do not have a final answer to the question of why galaxies choose a particular internal mass distribution. Here we examine whether the distribution is set by thermodynamic equilibrium (TE).

The Quest for the Nature of the Dark Matter: The Need of a New Paradigm
Astronomy, 2023 The phenomenon of the Dark matter baffles the researchers: the underlying dark particle has escaped so far the detection and its astrophysical role appears complex and entangled with that of the standard luminous particles.
