A Simple Model for Explaining Galaxy Rotation Curves
Galaxies, 2018 A new simple expression for the circular velocity of spiral galaxies is proposed and tested against HI Nearby Galaxy Survey (THINGS) data set. Its accuracy is compared with the one coming from MOND.

The Impacts of Bars, Spirals, and Bulge Size on Gas-phase Metallicity Gradients in MaNGA Galaxies
The Astrophysical JournalAs galaxies evolve over time, the orbits of their constituent stars are expected to change in size and shape, moving stars away from their birth radius. Radial gas flows are also expected. Spiral arms and bars in galaxies are predicted to help drive this

Identification of Intermediate-mass Black Hole Candidates among a Sample of Sd Galaxies
The Astrophysical JournalWe analyzed images of every northern hemisphere Sd galaxy listed in the Third Reference Catalogue of Bright Galaxies with a relatively face-on inclination ( θ ≤ 30°). Specifically, we measured the spiral arms’ winding angle, ϕ , in 85 galaxies.

The curious case of J113924.74+164144.0: a possible new group of galaxies at z = 0.0693
, 2010 J113924.74+164144.0 is an interesting galaxy at z = 0.0693, i.e. D_L ~ 305 Mpc, with tidal-tail-like extended optical features on both sides. There are two neighbouring galaxies, a spiral galaxy J113922.85+164136.3 which has a strikingly similar 'tidal ...

Photometric structure of the peculiar galaxy ESO 235-G58
, 2004 We present the near-infrared and optical properties of the peculiar galaxy ESO 235-G58, which resembles a late-type ringed barred spiral seen close to face-on.

International Journal of Engineering and Management Sciences, 2018 Recently, it has been suggested that entangled particles may be connected by a wormhole. If that is right, what is the distance between them we have to take into account when applying Newton's law of universal gravitation to these particles?

Formation of Spiral Galaxies [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1977 Conventionally, two major components of spiral galaxies are distinguished: (1) a “spheroidal component”, which includes the central bulge and the surrounding halo, and (2) a “disc component”, which is basically flat and circular but is often warped at the edges. Other structures, such as bars or rings, may also be present, but they are probably of less

Grand Design versus Multiarmed Spiral Galaxies: Dependence on Galaxy Structure
The Astronomical JournalWe developed an algorithm to use Galaxy Zoo 3D spiral arm masks produced by citizen scientist volunteers to semiautomatically classify spiral galaxies as either multiarmed or grand design spirals. Our final sample consists of 299 multiarmed and 245 grand
