Dynamics of DiskMass Survey galaxies in refracted gravity
Valentina Cesare, Antonaldo Diaferio, Titos Matsakos +1
We test if Refracted Gravity (RG) can describe the dynamics of disk galaxies without resorting to dark matter. RG is a classical theory of gravity where the standard Poisson equati…
The potential role of NGC 205 in generating Andromeda's vast thin co-rotating plane of satellite galaxies
Garry W. Angus, Paul Coppin, Gianfranco Gentile +1
The Andromeda galaxy is observed to have a system of two large dwarf ellipticals and ~13 smaller satellite galaxies that are currently co-rotating in a thin plane, in addition to 2…
Dynamical measurement of the stellar surface density of face-on galaxies
Garry W. Angus, Gianfranco Gentile, Benoit Famaey
The DiskMass survey recently provided measurements of the vertical velocity dispersions of disk stars in a sample of nearly face-on galaxies. By setting the disk scale-heights to b…
Mass models of disk galaxies from the DiskMass Survey in MOND
Garry W. Angus, Gianfranco Gentile, Robert A. Swaters +4
This article explores the agreement between the predictions of Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) and the rotation curves and stellar velocity dispersion profiles measured by the D…
Disk mass and disk heating in the spiral galaxy NGC 3223
G. Gentile, C. Tydtgat, M. Baes +6
We present the stellar and gaseous kinematics of an Sb galaxy, NGC 3223, with the aim of determining the vertical and radial stellar velocity dispersion as a function of radius, wh…
Morphology parameters: substructure identification in X-ray galaxy clusters
Viral Parekh, Kurt van der Heyden, Chiara Ferrari +2
In recent years multi-wavelength observations have shown the presence of substructures related to merging events in a high fraction of galaxy clusters. Clusters can be roughly grou…
