What is Driving the HI Velocity Dispersion?
D. Tamburro, H. -W. Rix, A. K. Leroy +5
We explore what dominant physical mechanism sets the kinetic energy contained in neutral, atomic (HI) gas. We compare the HI line widths predicted from turbulence driven by superno…

Geometrically Derived Timescales for Star Formation in Spiral Galaxies
D. Tamburro, H. -W. Rix, F. Walter +4
We estimate a characteristic timescale for star formation in the spiral arms of disk galaxies, going from atomic hydrogen (HI) to dust-enshrouded massive stars. Drawing on high-res…

Detection of non-ordered central gas motions in a sample of four low surface brightness galaxies
A. Pizzella, D. Tamburro, E. M. Corsini +1
We present integral-field spectroscopy of the ionized gas in the central regions of four galaxies with a low surface brightness disk taken with the Visible Multi Object Spectrograp…
