Advanced Virgo Plus for O5 -- Design Report Overview
F. Acernese, A. Agapito, D. Agarwal +578
This document presents an overview of the design, implementation, and expected performance of the Advanced Virgo Plus (AdV+) upgrades in view of the O5 observing run. Following the…
MIRC-X/CHARA: sensitivity improvements with an ultra-low noise SAPHIRA detector
Narsireddy Anugu, Jean-Baptiste Le Bouquin, John D. Monnier +9
MIRC-X is an upgrade of the six-telescope infrared beam combiner at the CHARA telescope array, the world's largest baseline interferometer in the optical/infrared, located at the M…
Stellar Disc Truncations and Extended Haloes in Face-on Spiral Galaxies
S. P. C. Peters, P. C. van der Kruit, J. H. Knapen +4
We use data from the IAC Stripe82 Legacy Project to study the surface photometry of 22 nearby, face-on to moderately inclined spiral galaxies. The reprocessed and combined Stripe 8…
The Way We Measure: Comparison of Methods to Derive Radial Surface Brightness Profiles
S. P. C. Peters, P. C. van der Kruit, R. S. de Jong
The breaks and truncations in the luminosity profile of face-on spiral galaxies offer valuable insights in their formation history. The traditional method of deriving the surface p…
The Shape of Dark Matter Haloes IV. The Structure of Stellar Discs in Edge-on Galaxies
S. P. C. Peters, G. de Geyter, P. C. van der Kruit +1
We present optical and near-infrared archival observations of eight edge-on galaxies. These observations are used to model the stellar content of each galaxy using the FitSKIRT sof…
The Shape of Dark Matter Haloes III. Kinematics and Structure of the HI disc
S. P. C. Peters, P. C. van der Kruit, R. J. Allen +1
We present a new strategy for fitting the structure and kinematics of the HI in edge-on galaxies using a fit to the terminal-velocity channel maps of a HI data cube. The strategy c…
The Shape of Dark Matter Haloes II. The Galactus HI Modelling & Fitting Tool
S. P. C. Peters, P. C. van der Kruit, R. J. Allen +1
We present a new HI modelling tool called \textsc{Galactus}. The program has been designed to perform automated fits of disc-galaxy models to observations. It includes a treatment…
The Shape of Dark Matter Haloes, V. Analysis of observations of edge-on galaxies
S. P. C. Peters, P. C. van der Kruit, R. J. Allen +1
In the previous papers in this series, we have measured the stellar and \hi content in a sample of edge-on galaxies. In the present paper, we perform a simultaneous rotation curve…
The Shape of Dark Matter Haloes, I. HI Observations of Edge-on Galaxies
S. P. C. Peters, P. C. van der Kruit, R. J. Allen +1
We present neutral hydrogen observations for a sample of eight nearby, late-type, edge-on galaxies. All of the galaxies have been well resolved in the radial direction, while six h…
