Pattern Speed of Lopsidedness in Galactic Disks
Chanda J. Jog
The disks of spiral galaxies commonly show a lopsided mass distribution, with a typical fractional amplitude of 10 % for the Fourier component m=1. This is seen in both stars and g…

Lopsided Spiral Galaxies
Chanda J. Jog, Francoise Combes
The light distribution in the disks of many galaxies is non-axisymmetric or `lopsided' with a spatial extent much larger along one half of a galaxy than the other, as in M101. Rece…

The Flattened Dark Matter Halo of M31 as Deduced from the Observed HI Scale Heights
Arunima Banerjee, Chanda J. Jog
In this paper, we use the outer-galactic HI scale height data as well as the observed rotation curve as constraints to determine the halo density distribution of the Andromeda gala…
