MOND implications for spectral line profiles of shell galaxies: shell formation history and mass-velocity scaling relations

Michal Bílek, Bruno Jungwiert, Ivana Ebrová +1

Context. Many ellipticals are surrounded by round stellar shells probably stemming from minor mergers. A new method for constraining gravitational potential in elliptical galaxies…

Shell galaxies as laboratories for testing MOND

Michal Bílek, Ivana Ebrová, Bruno Jungwiert +2

Tests of MOND in ellipticals are relatively rare because these galaxies often lack kinematic tracers in the regions where the MOND effects are significant. Stellar shells observed…

Testing MOND gravity in the shell galaxy NGC 3923

Michal Bilek, Bruno Jungwiert, Lucie Jilkova +3

Context. The elliptical galaxy NGC 3923 is surrounded by numerous stellar shells that are concentric arcs centered on the galactic core. They are very likely a result of a minor me…

Quadruple-peaked spectral line profiles as a tool to constrain gravitational potential of shell galaxies

Ivana Ebrova, Lucie Jilkova, Bruno Jungwiert +5

Stellar shells observed in many giant elliptical and lenticular as well as a few spiral and dwarf galaxies, presumably result from galaxy mergers. Line-of-sight velocity distributi…

Orbits of LMC/SMC with recent ground-based proper motions

Katerina Bartoskova, Bruno Jungwiert, Adam Ruzicka +1

In recent years, with new ground-based and HST measurements of proper motions of the Magellanic Clouds being published, a need of a reanalysis of possible orbital history has arise…

Comparing Various Approaches to Simulating the Formation of Shell Galaxies

Ivana Ebrova, Katerina Bartoskova, Bruno Jungwiert +2

The model of a radial minor merger proposed by Quinn (1984), which successfully reproduces the observed regular shell systems in shell galaxies, is ideal for a test-particle simula…
