The Future Of The Arecibo Observatory: The Next Generation Arecibo Telescope
D. Anish Roshi, N. Aponte, E. Araya +71
The Arecibo Observatory (AO) is a multidisciplinary research and education facility that is recognized worldwide as a leading facility in astronomy, planetary, and atmospheric and…
The I-Band Tully-Fisher Relation for Cluster Galaxies: a Template Relation, its Scatter and Bias Corrections
R. Giovanelli, M. Haynes, T. Herter +5
Infrared I band photometry and velocity widths for galaxies in 24 clusters, with radial velocities between 1,000 and 10,000 \kms, are used to construct a template Tully--Fisher (TF…
Correlation Analysis of SFI Peculiar Velocities
S. Borgani, L. N. da Costa, I. Zehavi +5
We present results of a statistical analysis of the SFI catalog of peculiar velocities, a recently completed survey of spiral field galaxies with I-band Tully-Fisher distances (Hay…
Galaxy Peculiar Velocities and Infall onto Groups
M. L. Ceccarelli, C. Valotto, D. G. Lambas +3
We perform statistical analyses to study the infall of galaxies onto groups and clusters in the nearby Universe. The study is based on the UZC and SSRS2 group catalogs and peculiar…
Peculiar Velocity Dipoles of Field Galaxies
R. Giovanelli, M. Haynes, W. Freudling +3
The Tully-Fisher (Tully and Fisher 1977; TF) relation is applied to obtain peculiar velocities of field spirals galaxies and to calculate dipoles of the peculiar velocity field to…
The Tully-Fisher Relation and H_not
R. Giovanelli, M. Haynes, L. da Costa +3
The use of the Tully-Fisher (TF) relation for the determination of the Hubble Constant relies on the availability of an adequate template TF relation and of reliable primary distan…
