VIMOS-VLT Integral Field Kinematics of the Giant Low Surface Brightness Galaxy ESO 323-G064

L. Coccato, R. A. Swaters, V. C. Rubin +2

Aims:We have studied the bulge and the disk kinematics of the giant low surface brightness galaxy ESO 323-G064 in order to investigate its dynamical properties and the radial mass…

Laser frequency combs for astronomical observations

Tilo Steinmetz, Tobias Wilken, Constanza Araujo-Hauck +9

A direct measurement of the universe's expansion history could be made by observing in real time the evolution of the cosmological redshift of distant objects. However, this would…

Cosmic dynamics in the era of Extremely Large Telescopes

J. Liske, A. Grazian, E. Vanzella +24

The redshifts of all cosmologically distant sources are expected to experience a small, systematic drift as a function of time due to the evolution of the Universe's expansion rate…
