Distances from Stellar Kinematics for Peculiar Virgo Cluster Spiral Galaxies
We present distance estimates for eleven peculiar Virgo cluster spiral galaxies based on measurements of the stellar kinematics of their central 2 kpc. Stellar circular velocities were obtained using two-integral dynamical models. Distances were obtained by comparing, at each radius, the stellar circular velocities with synthetic Hα rotation curves derived from NIR Tully-Fisher relations. The r...
متن کاملStellar Kinematics of the Spiral Structure in the Solar Neighborhood
We present a method, based on the kinematic analysis of the Galactic disk stars, to clarify whether the internal motions of the stellar system in spiral arms follow those expected in the density wave theory. The method relies on the comparison with the linear relation between the phases of spatial positions and epicyclic motions of stars, as drawn from the theory. The application of the method ...
متن کاملMolecular Gas, Kinematics, and Ob Star Formation in the Spiral Arms of the Southern Milky Way
The rotation curve for the IV galactic quadrant, within the solar circle, is derived from the Columbia University U. de Chile CO(J=1→0) survey of molecular gas. A new sampling, four times denser in longitude than in our previous analysis, is used to compute kinematical parameters that require derivatives w/r to galactocentric radius; the angular velocity Ω(R), the epicyclic frequency κ(R), and ...
متن کاملStellar kinematics of barred galaxies
I show that the counter-rotating core of the barred galaxy NGC5728 could be explained by the internal dynamics of the bar. This supports the idea that the nuclear bar is counter-rotating.
متن کاملFormation of Kinematic Subsystems in Stellar Spiral-spiral Mergers
We show that kinematically peculiar cores may be generated in stellar spiral-spiral mergers. Kinematic segregation appears as the central bulges transport orbital angular momentum inward to the center of the remnant, while the outer parts keep the spin signature of the precursor disks. The peculiar core is composed mostly of bulge material, and its size best matches that of observed peculiar co...
