The Link between the Baryonic Mass Distribution and the Rotation Curve Shape

R. A. Swaters, R. Sancisi, J. M. van der Hulst +1

The observed rotation curves of disc galaxies, ranging from late-type dwarf galaxies to early-type spirals, can be fit remarkably well simply by scaling up the contributions of the…

Are Dwarf Galaxies Dominated by Dark Matter?

R. A. Swaters, R. Sancisi, T. S. van Albada +1

Mass models for a sample of 18 late-type dwarf and low surface brightness galaxies show that in almost all cases the contribution of the stellar disks to the rotation curves can be…

Encounters between spherical galaxies II: systems with dark halo

A. C. Gonzalez-Garcia, T. S. van Albada

We performe N-body simulations of encounters between spherical systems surrounded by a spherical halo. Following a preceding paper with a similar aim, the initial systems include a…

The Mbh-sigma relation as a constraint on the formation of elliptical galaxies

L. Ciotti, T. S. van Albada

Most elliptical galaxies contain central black holes, whose masses scale proportionally to the observed central velocity dispersions of the host galaxies according to the so-called…

On the apparent coupling of neutral hydrogen and dark matter in spiral galaxies

H. Hoekstra, T. S. van Albada, R. Sancisi

We have studied a mass model for spiral galaxies in which the dark matter surface density is a scaled version of the observed HI surface density. Applying this mass model to a samp…

Kinematically Lopsided Spiral Galaxies

R. A. Swaters, R. H. M. Schoenmakers, R. Sancisi +1

Asymmetries in the distribution of light and neutral hydrogen are often observed in spiral galaxies. Here, attention is drawn to the presence of large-scale asymmetries in their ki…
