Kinematic and dynamics of the galaxy ESO 358-60

Francesco Sylos Labini, Matteo Straccamore

We investigate the velocity field derived from HI measurements of the irregular galaxy ESO 358-60 using the Velocity Ring Model (VRM) method. This technique, which assumes a coplan…

Breaking the degeneracy between warps and radial flows in external galaxies

Francesco Sylos Labini, Giordano De Marzo, Matteo Straccamore

Observations of the line-of-sight component of emitter velocities in galaxies are valuable for reconstructing their 2D velocity fields, albeit requiring certain assumptions. A comm…

Generalized rotation curves of the Milky Way from the GAIA DR3 data-set: constraints on mass models

Francesco Sylos Labini

The circular velocity curve traced by stars provides a direct means of investigating the potential and mass distribution of the Milky Way. Recent measurements of the Galaxy's rotat…

Properties of self-gravitating quasi-stationary states

Francesco Sylos Labini, Roberto Capuzzo-Dolcetta

Initially far out-of-equilibrium self-gravitating systems form, through a collisionless relaxation dynamics, quasi-stationary states (QSS). These may arise from a bottom-up aggrega…

Formation of disks with long-lived spiral arms from violent gravitational dynamics

Francesco Sylos Labini, Luis Diego Pinto, Roberto Capuzzo-Dolcetta

By means of simple dynamical experiments we study the combined effect of gravitational and gas dynamics in the evolution of an initially out-of-equilibrium, uniform and rotating ma…

Transient spiral arms from far out of equilibrium gravitational evolution

David Benhaiem, Michael Joyce, Francesco Sylos Labini

We describe how a simple class of out of equilibrium, rotating and asymmetrical mass distributions evolve under their self-gravity to produce a quasi-planar spiral structure surrou…
