On a mechanism that structures galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1979
By considering the interaction of a single stellar orbit with a weak cos 2Φ potential it is shown that in the central regions of galaxies with slowly rising rotation curves, the elongations of the orbits will align along any potential valley and oscillate about it. This effect is more pronounced for elongated orbits.

Some Properties of Galaxy Structures [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2011
Abstract We analysed some properties of galaxies structures based on the PF catalog of galaxy structures (Panko & Flin 2006) and the Tully NBG catalog (Tully 1988). At first, we analyzed the orientation of galaxies in the 247 optically selected rich Abell clusters, having at least 100 members. The distribution of the position angles

Two-point Correlation Function Studies for the Milky Way: Discovery of Spatial Clustering from Disk Excitations and Substructure

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We introduce a two-particle correlation function (2PCF) for the Milky Way, constructed to probe spatial correlations in the orthogonal directions of the stellar disk in the Galactic cylindrical coordinates of R , ϕ , and z . We use this new tool to probe

RR Lyrae Variables as Tracers of the Galactic Bulge Kinematic Structure

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
RR Lyrae stars are recognized as some of the oldest stars in the Universe. In addition, they are some of the few old celestial objects for which distances can be reliably inferred.

Dynamics of the Spiral-Arm Corotation and Its Observable Footprints in the Solar Neighborhood

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
This article discusses the effects of the spiral-arm corotation on the stellar dynamics in the Solar Neighborhood (SN). All our results presented here rely on: (1) observational evidence that the Sun lies near the corotation circle, where stars rotate ...

THE ALIGNMENT OF GALAXY STRUCTURES

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2015
We analyzed the orientation of the sample of ACO galaxy clusters. We examined the alignment in a subsample of 1056 galaxy structures taken from the Panko–Flin (2006) Catalog with known BM morphological types. We were looking for a correlation between the orientation of the cluster and the positions of neighboring clusters.

Helical Structures in Seyfert Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 2002
Abstract Seyfert galaxies with Z-shaped emission filaments in the Narrow Line Region (NLR) are considered. We assume that observable Z-shaped structures and the velocity pattern of the NLR may be explained as tri-dimensional helical waves in the ionization cone.

The Spiral Structure in the Solar Neighborhood

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
The spiral structure in the solar neighborhood is an important issue in astronomy. In the past few years, there has been significant progress in observation. The distances for a large number of good spiral tracers, i.e., giant molecular clouds, high-mass

THE STRUCTURE OF 2MASS GALAXY CLUSTERS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2011
We use a sample of galaxies from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) Extended Source Catalog to refine a matched filter method of finding galaxy clusters that takes into account each galaxy's position, magnitude, and redshift if available. The matched filter postulates a radial density profile, luminosity function, and line-of-sight velocity ...

Targeted decrease of portal hepatic pressure gradient improves ascites control after TIPS

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
The river diagram demonstrates that after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt insertion (TIPS) the majority of patients without ascites and 50% of the patients with ascites detectable at ultrasound, show the best response in the long term follow‐up.
