The Galactic Radial Gradient of Velocity Dispersion [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1985
The kinematical study of the stars in the solar neighbourhood allows, via the equation of the so-called asymmetrical drift, to deduce the sum of the gradients of the density and the velocity dispersions, . In order to deduce the density gradients in the solar neighbourhood, the second term is generally supposed to be zero.

Analysis of terahertz generation using tilted-pulse-fronts

open access: yes, 2018
A 2-D spatio-temporal analysis of terahertz generation by optical rectification of tilted-pulse-fronts is presented. Closed form expressions of terahertz transients and spectra in two spatial dimensions are furnished in the undepleted limit. Importantly,

Weak Lensing Detection of Cl 1604+4304 at z = 0.90

open access: yes, 2004
We present a weak lensing analysis of the high-redshift cluster Cl 1604+4304. At z=0.90, this is the highest-redshift cluster yet detected with weak lensing.

Velocity Dispersion of Excited H2

open access: yes, 2005
We present a study of the high rotational bands (J > 2) of H2 toward 4 early type galactic stars: HD 73882, HD 192639, HD 206267, and HD 207538. In each case, the velocity dispersion - characterized by the spectrum fitting parameter b - increases with the level of excitation, a phenomenon that has previously been detected by the Copernicus and IMAPS

Group-velocity-dispersion engineering of tantala integrated photonics

open access: yesOptics Letters, 2021
Designing integrated photonics, especially to leverage Kerr-nonlinear optics, requires accurate and precise knowledge of the refractive index across the visible to infrared spectral ranges. Tantala ( T a 2 O 5 ) is an ...

Automatic Single Droplet Generator with Control over Droplet Size and Detachment Frequency

open access: yesColloids and Interfaces, 2019
This paper presents a quite simple, fully automatized single droplet generator, which can be an alternative for more expensive and complicated microfluidic devices. The simple generation nozzle connected to the pressure cells and cheap peristaltic pumps,

The connection between the peaks in velocity dispersion and star-forming clumps of turbulent galaxies

open access: yes, 2017
We present Keck/OSIRIS adaptive optics observations with 150-400 pc spatial sampling of 7 turbulent, clumpy disc galaxies from the DYNAMO sample ($0 ...

Testing fundamental physics with distant star clusters: theoretical models for pressure-supported stellar systems

open access: yes, 2009
We investigate the mean velocity dispersion and the velocity dispersion profile of stellar systems in MOND, using the N-body code N-MODY, which is a particle-mesh based code with a numerical MOND potential solver developed by Ciotti, Londrillo and Nipoti

The velocity dispersion among galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1981
The galaxies in the Revised Shapley-Ames redshift catalog, which is complete to Broughly-equal13, are used to determine the velocity dispersion in the local galaxy field (..nu..

On the Origin of the Variety of Velocity Dispersion Profiles of Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Observed and simulated galaxies exhibit a significant variation in their velocity dispersion profiles. We examine the inner and outer slopes of stellar velocity dispersion profiles using integral field spectroscopy data from two surveys, SAMI (for z < 0 ...
