Off the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation: a population of baryon-dominated ultra-diffuse galaxies

Pavel E. Mancera Piña, Filippo Fraternali, Elizabeth A. K. Adams +17

We study the gas kinematics traced by the 21-cm emission of a sample of six HIrich low surface brightness galaxies classified as ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs). Using the 3D kine…

Galaxy disc scaling relations: A tight linear galaxy -- halo connection challenges abundance matching

Lorenzo Posti, Antonino Marasco, Filippo Fraternali +1

In CDM cosmology, to first order, galaxies form out of the cooling of baryons within the virial radius of their dark matter halo. The fractions of mass and angular momentum reta…

Tip of the red giant branch distance to the nearby dwarf galaxy [TT2009] 25 in the NGC 891 group

Oliver Müller, Rodrigo Ibata, Marina Rejkuba +1

Dwarf galaxies are key objects for small-scale cosmological tests like the abundance problems or the planes-of-satellites problem. It is therefore a crucial task to get accurate in…

Action-based models for dwarf spheroidal galaxies and globular clusters

Raffaele Pascale, James Binney, Carlo Nipoti +1

A new family of self-consistent DF-based models of stellar systems is explored. The stellar component of the models is described by a distribution function (DF) depending on the ac…

Gaia DR2 orbital properties for field stars with globular cluster-like CN band strengths

A. Savino, L. Posti

Large spectroscopic surveys of the Milky Way have revealed that a small population of stars in the halo have light element abundances comparable to those found in globular clusters…

The dichotomy of dark matter fraction and total mass density slope of galaxies over five dex in mass

C. Tortora, L. Posti, L. V. E. Koopmans +1

We analyse the mass density distribution in the centres of galaxies across five orders of magnitude in mass range. Using high-quality spiral galaxy rotation curves and infrared pho…
