Dynamics of dwarf-spheroidals and the dark matter halo of the Galaxy
R. Cowsik, Charu Ratnam, Pijushpani Bhattacharjee +1
Based on the observed paucity of the dwarf spheroidal (dSph) satellites of the Milky Way at small Galactocentric distances, we put forward the hypothesis that subsequent to the for…
The mass distribution in the innermost regions of Spiral Galaxies
Charu Ratnam, Paolo Salucci
We use high-spatial resolution () rotation curves of 83 spiral galaxies to investigate the mass distribution of their innermost kpc. We show that, {\it in this region}…
The Mass Of Black Holes in the Nuclei Of Spirals
Paolo Salucci, Charu Ratnam, Pierluigi Monaco +1
We use rotation curve kinematics of 1000 spiral galaxies to investigate if these galaxies could host BH (Black Hole) remnants that once powered the QSO phenomenon. The rotation cur…
Reply to Comment on ``Dispersion Velocity of Galactic Dark Matter Particles'' by Gates et al (astro-ph/9606132)
R. Cowsik, Charu Ratnam, P. Bhattacharjee
Gates et al (astro-ph/9606132) have raised several issues in their Comment on our Letter (Phys. Rev. Lett. Vol. 76, p.3886 (1996); astro-ph/9605001). We clarify these issues and sh…
Reply to Comment on ``Dispersion Velocity of Galactic Dark Matter Particles'' by Evans (astro-ph/9606155)
R. Cowsik, Charu Ratnam, P. Bhattacharjee
In a recent Comment on our Letter (Phys. Rev. Lett, Vol 76, p 3886 (1996); astro-ph/9605001) Evans (astro-ph/9606155) has raised some issues concerning the specific choice of the d…
The Dispersion Velocity of Galactic Dark Matter Particles
R. Cowsik, Charu Ratnam, P. Bhattacharjee
The self-consistent spatial distribution of particles of Galactic dark matter is derived including their own gravitational potential, as also that of the visible matter of the Gala…
