A tale of two galaxies: light and mass in NGC891 and NGC7814
Filippo Fraternali, Renzo Sancisi, Peter Kamphuis
The two edge-on galaxies NGC891 and NGC7814 are representative of two extreme morphologies: the former is disk-dominated while the latter is almost entirely bulge-dominated. It has…
Structure and dynamics of giant low surface brightness galaxies
Federico Lelli, Filippo Fraternali, Renzo Sancisi
Giant low surface brightness (GLSB) galaxies are commonly thought to be massive, dark matter dominated systems. However, this conclusion is based on highly uncertain rotation curve…
The rotation curves shapes of late-type dwarf galaxies
R. A. Swaters, R. Sancisi, T. S. van Albada +1
We present rotation curves derived for a sample of 62 late-type dwarf galaxies that have been observed as part of the Westerbork HI Survey of Spiral and Irregular Galaxies (WHISP)…
HI holes and high-velocity clouds in the spiral galaxy NGC 6946
R. Boomsma, T. A. Oosterloo, F. Fraternali +2
We present a study of the distribution and kinematics of the neutral gas in the low-inclination Scd galaxy NGC 6946. The galaxy has been observed for 192 hours at 21-cm with the We…
Cold gas accretion in galaxies
R. Sancisi, F. Fraternali, T. Oosterloo +1
Evidence for the accretion of cold gas in galaxies has been rapidly accumulating in the past years. HI observations of galaxies and their environment have brought to light new fact…
The Bright and the Dark Side of Malin 1
Renzo Sancisi, Filippo Fraternali
Malin 1 has long been considered a prototype giant, dark matter dominated Low Surface Brightness galaxy. Two recent studies, one based on a re-analysis of VLA HI observations and t…
