Photometric and kinematic DiskFit models of four nearby spiral galaxies

Wesley Peters, Rachel Kuzio de Naray

We present optical photometry, H IFU velocity fields, and H long-slit rotation curves for a sample of four nearby spiral galaxies having a range of morphologi…

A Low-Mass Black Hole in the Nearby Seyfert Galaxy UGC 06728

Misty C. Bentz, Merida Batiste, James Seals +14

We present the results of a recent reverberation mapping campaign for UGC 06728, a nearby low-luminosity Seyfert 1 in a late-type galaxy. Nightly monitoring in the spring of 2015 a…

The RINGS Survey: High-Resolution H-alpha Velocity Fields of Nearby Spiral Galaxies with the SALT Fabry-Perot

Carl J. Mitchell, J. A. Sellwood, T. B. Williams +3

We have obtained high-spatial-resolution spectrophotometric data on several nearby spiral galaxies with the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) Fabry-Pérot interferometer on th…

The Distribution of Star Formation and Metals in the Low Surface Brightness Galaxy UGC 628

J. E. Young, Rachel Kuzio de Naray, Sharon X. Wang

We introduce the MUSCEL Program (MUltiwavelength observations of the Structure, Chemistry and Evolution of LSB galaxies), a project aimed at determining the star-formation historie…

The RINGS Survey I: Halpha and HI Velocity Maps of Galaxy NGC 2280

Carl J. Mitchell, T. B. Williams, Kristine Spekkens +3

Precise measurements of gas kinematics in the disk of a spiral galaxy can be used to estimate its mass distribution. The Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) has a large collect…

Searching for Non-axisymmetries in NGC 6503: A Weak End-on Bar

Rachel Kuzio de Naray, Cameron A. Arsenault, Kristine Spekkens +4

The isolation, simple apparent structure, and low luminosity of the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 6503 make it an ideal candidate for an in-depth kinematic and photometric study. We int…

Do Baryons Alter the Halos of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies?

Rachel Kuzio de Naray, Kristine Spekkens

High-quality observations of dark matter-dominated low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies indicate that, in contrast to the triaxial, centrally-concentrated cuspy halos formed in co…

Recovering cores and cusps in dark matter haloes using mock velocity field observations

Rachel Kuzio de Naray, Tobias Kaufmann

We present mock DensePak Integral Field Unit (IFU) velocity fields, rotation curves, and halo fits for disc galaxies formed in spherical and triaxial cuspy dark matter haloes, and…

The Rotation Velocity Attributable to Dark Matter at Intermediate Radii in Disk Galaxies

S. S. McGaugh, W. J. G. de Blok, J. M. Schombert +2

We examine the amplitude of the rotation velocity that can be attributed to the dark matter halos of disk galaxies, focusing on well measured intermediate radii. The data for 60 ga…
