Electrographic and spectroscopic observations have been obtained of the peculiar galaxy NGC 523. The observations suggest that the pecularities of the system result from a close encounter by two dwarf galaxies, with tidal interaction responsible for the formation of the galactic bridge and tails.

A local measurement of the growth rate from peculiar velocities and galaxy clustering correlations in the 6dF Galaxy Survey [PDF]
Galaxy peculiar velocities provide an integral source of cosmological information that can be harnessed to measure the growth rate of large scale structure and constrain possible extensions to General Relativity.

Joint growth-rate measurements from redshift-space distortions and peculiar velocities in the 6dF Galaxy Survey [PDF]
We present a new model for the cross-covariance between galaxy redshift-space distortions and peculiar velocities. We combine this with the auto-covariance models of both probes in a fully self-consistent, maximum-likelihood method, allowing us to ...

Merging cold front and AGN feedback in the peculiar galaxy cluster Abell 2626 [PDF]
This paper presents the analysis of a combined 134 ks {\it Chandra} data of a peculiar galaxy cluster Abell 2626. This study confirms the earlier detection of the east cavity at $\sim$13 kpc and reports detection of a new cavity at $\sim$39 kpc on the ...

The detonation of a thin (≲0.03 M _⊙ ) helium shell (He-shell) atop a ∼1 M _⊙ white dwarf (WD) is a promising mechanism to explain normal Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), while thicker He-shells and less massive WDs may explain some recently observed ...

Properties of Galaxies with Peculiar Nuclei [PDF]
In a former note (Sersic and Pastoriza 1965) we published the results of a survey of bright southern galaxies which were inspected for peculiarities in their nuclei. Although the sample was small ( 35 galaxies) it suggested a relationship between the existence of a bar and the presence of abnormal features in their nuclei.

Automatic detection and quantitative assessment of peculiar galaxy pairs in Sloan Digital Sky Survey [PDF]
We applied computational tools for automatic detection of peculiar galaxy pairs. We rst detected in SDSS DR7 400,000 galaxy images with i magnitude

Cosmological Parameter Constraints from the SDSS Density and Momentum Power Spectra
We extract the galaxy density and momentum power spectra from a subset of early-type galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) DR7 main galaxy catalog. Using galaxy distance information inferred from the improved fundamental plane described in Yoon

The Impact of Peculiar Velocities on the Estimation of the Hubble Constant from Gravitational Wave Standard Sirens [PDF]
In this work we investigate the systematic uncertainties that arise from the calculation of the peculiar velocity when estimating the Hubble constant ($H_0$) from gravitational wave standard sirens.
