Kinematics of Young Stellar Objects under Various Stellar Feedback
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesBased on the Gaia Data Release 3 and APOGEE data sets, we investigate the kinematic differences between young stellar objects (YSOs) and their parent clouds in five nearby star-forming regions.

Kinematics of the Outer Stellar Halo [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1996 We have tested whether the simple model for the kinematics of the Galactic stellar halo (in particular the outer halo) proposed by Sommer-Larsen, Flynn and Christensen (SLFC) is physically realizable, by directly integrating particles in a 3-D model of ...

The Origin of the Nuclear Star-forming Ring in NGC 3182
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We investigate the stellar and ionized gas kinematics, and stellar populations of NGC 3182 galaxy using integral field spectrograph data from the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area survey. We try to clarify the nature of the ring structure in NGC 3182.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We have for the first time identified the early stellar disk in the Milky Way by using a combination of elemental abundances and kinematics. Using data from APOGEE DR17 and Gaia we select stars in the Mg–Mn–Al–Fe plane with elemental abundances ...

Stellar Motions in the Polar Ring Galaxy NGC 4650A [PDF]
, 2003 We present the first measurement of the stellar kinematics in the polar ring of NGC 4650A. There is well defined rotation, with the stars and gas rotating in the same direction, and with similar amplitude.

Orbit-Based Dynamical Models of the Sombrero Galaxy (NGC 4594) [PDF]
, 2011 We present axisymmetric, orbit-based models to study the central black hole, stellar mass-to-light ratio, and dark matter halo of NGC 4594 (M104, the Sombrero Galaxy).

Investigation of the Stellar Population of Several Polar Ring Galaxies
Galaxies, 2016 We present results of our investigation of two multi-spin galaxies which were taken from the catalog of polar ring galaxies. All of them possess nucleus-like knots.

The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Stellar kinematics and metallicity are key to exploring formation scenarios for galactic disks and halos. In this work, we characterized the relationship between kinematics and photometric metallicity along the line of sight to M31's disk.

Kinematic and stellar population properties of the counter-rotating components in the S0 galaxy NGC 1366 [PDF]
, 2017 Context. Many disk galaxies host two extended stellar components that rotate in opposite directions. The analysis of the stellar populations of the counter-rotating components provides constraints on the environmental and internal processes that drive ...

oMEGACat. I. MUSE Spectroscopy of 300,000 Stars within the Half-light Radius of ω Centauri
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Omega Centauri ( ω Cen) is the most massive globular cluster of the Milky Way and has been the focus of many studies that reveal the complexity of its stellar populations and kinematics.
