Klun+ Peculiar Velocity Survey

The enhanced Kinematics of the Local Universe (KLUN+) galaxy sample is a collection of galaxies suitable for Tully-Fisher (TF) or Faber-Jackson (FJ) distance estimation. Here we extract a subsample of 6229 KLUN+ galaxies closer than 80h −1 Mpc, and calculate their distances and peculiar velocities with the Iterative Normalized Distance method. Within this method we can derive an analytical form...

Contrast and Peculiar Velocity

Concepts like peculiar velocity, gravitational force, and power spectrum and their interrelationships are of utmost importance in the theories of structure formation. The observational implementation of these concepts is usually based on the Newtonian hydrodynamic equations, but used up to scales where general relativistic effects come in. Using a perturbation of FRW metric in harmonic gauge, w...

A Peculiar Pigmentary Condition

History.?In October 1910, the patient, Sepoy T. K., 27th Punjabis, showed me some pigmented spots on iiis face, hands and left leg. They first appeared in March, 1U0S, when the patient was living in Jhandola. He believed that quinine, which he was taking prophylactically at that time, caused their appearance. No fresh spots have appeared since then, but some of the original areas have increased...
