Declining Rotation Curve and Brown Dwarf MACHOs
If the Galactic rotation speed at the Solar circle is ∼ 200 km s or smaller, which is supported by several recent studies, the rotation curve of the Galaxy could be declining in the outermost region. Motivated by this, we investigate the effect of such declining rotation curve on the estimate of the MACHO mass and the fractional contribution of the MACHOs to the Galactic dark halo. Using Hernqu...
متن کاملDynamical model of the grand - design spiral galaxy NGC 157
Numerical simulations of the interstellarmediumunder the action of a density wave provide an accurate method for determining the positions of the main resonances in grand– design spiral galaxies. Barred spiral galaxies are among the best candidates for a single and well defined wave mode, because bars are standingwaveswhichmay share the same pattern speed as the spiral structure. In line with o...
متن کاملNgc 4244: a Low Mass Galaxy with a Falling Rotation Curve and a Flaring Gas Layer
I present sensitive high resolution VLA B, C, and D array observations of the almost edge-on Scd galaxy NGC 4244 in the 21-cm spectral line of neutral atomic hydrogen. The gas layer of NGC 4244 is rather symmetric in all respects, i.e. the surface density distribution, flaring and warping. This symmetry allows for a reliable determination of the rotation curve, despite the fact that the galaxy ...
متن کاملThe Universal Rotation Curve of Spiral Galaxies
The observed strong dark-to-luminous matter coupling is described by a bias relation between visible and dark matter sources. We discuss the bias which emerges in the case where the topological structure of the Universe at very large distances does not match properly that of the Friedman space. With the use of such ”topological” bias, we construct the Universal Rotation Curve (URC) for spirals ...
متن کاملRotation Velocities of Hot Horizontal Branch Stars in the Globular Clusters Ngc 1904, Ngc 2808, Ngc 6093, and Ngc 7078: the Database
We present radial and rotation (vsini) velocity measurements, from UVES+VLT high resolution spectra of 61 stars in the blue horizontal branches (HB) of the Galactic globular clusters NGC 1904 (M79), NGC 2808, NGC 6093 (M80), and NGC 7078 (M15). The data reduction and the velocity determination, based on cross-correlation techniques, are discussed in detail. Most of this database has been used b...
