The EDGE–CALIFA survey: validating stellar dynamical mass models with CO kinematics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Deriving circular velocities of galaxies from stellar kinematics can provide an estimate of their total dynamical mass, provided a contribution from the velocity dispersion of the stars is taken into account.

The effect of stellar-mass black holes on the central kinematics of ω Cen: a cautionary tale for IMBH interpretations [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
The search for intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) in the centre of globular clusters is often based on the observation of a central cusp in the surface brightness profile and a rise towards the centre in the velocity dispersion profiles.

Do Strong Bars Exhibit Strong Noncircular Motions?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Galactic bars induce characteristic motions deviating from pure circular rotation, known as noncircular motions. As bars are nonaxisymmetric structures, stronger bars are expected to show stronger noncircular motions.

Internal Kinematics and Structure of the Bulge Globular Cluster NGC 6569

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In the context of a project aimed at characterizing the properties of star clusters in the Galactic bulge, here we present the determination of the internal kinematics and structure of the massive globular cluster NGC 6569.

Minor axis kinematics of 19 S0-Sbc bulges

open access: yes, 2003
We present minor axis kinematic profiles for a well-studied sample of 19 early- to intermediate-type disk galaxies. We introduce, for the first time, the use of single-burst stellar population (SSP) models to obtain stellar velocities, velocity ...

The Hubble sequence: just a vestige of merger events? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Abr: We investigate whether the Hubble sequence can be reproduced by the relics of merger events. We verify that, at zmed=0.65, the abundant population of anomalous starbursts is mainly linked to the local spirals.

STELLAR KINEMATICS AND STRUCTURAL PROPERTIES OF VIRGO CLUSTER DWARF EARLY-TYPE GALAXIES FROM THE SMAKCED PROJECT. I. KINEMATICALLY DECOUPLED CORES AND IMPLICATIONS FOR INFALLEN GROUPS IN CLUSTERS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present evidence for kinematically decoupled cores (KDCs) in two dwarf early-type (dE) galaxies in the Virgo cluster, VCC 1183 and VCC 1453, studied as part of the SMAKCED stellar absorption-line spectroscopy and imaging survey.

Stellar 3D kinematics in the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
Aims. We present the first three-dimensional internal motions for individual stars in the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy. Methods. By combining first-epoch Hubble Space Telescope observations and second-epoch Gaia Data Release 2 positions, we measured the
