We have used the VIMOS integral field spectrograph to map the emission line properties in a sample of 24 star forming galaxies selected from the SDSS database. In this data paper we present and describe the sample, and explore some basic…
We investigate the morphology and resolved physical properties of a sample of 22 IR-selected DSFG at cosmic noon using the JWST/NIRCam images obtained in the EGS field for the CEERS survey. The resolution of the NIRCam images allowed to…
We present an investigation of candidate Infrared Dark Cloud cores as identified by Simon et al. (2006) located within the SCUBA Legacy Catalogue. After applying a uniform noise cut to the Catalogue data we identify 154 Infrared Dark Cloud…
In this Letter we present calibrated observations of the average mass of galaxies with 22< I < 25 in the Hubble Deep Field. We measure the mean mass profile using the statistical gravitational lens distortion of faint blue background…
We present the size-stellar mass relations of nearby (z=0.01-0.02) Sloan Digital Sky Survey galaxies, for samples selected by color, morphology, Sersic index n, and specific star formation rate. Several commonly employed size measurement…
The physical conditions in the inner parsec of accretion disks believed to orbit the central black holes in active galactic nuclei can be probed by imaging the absorption (by ionized gas in the disk) of background emission from a radio…
We present new spectroscopic and photometric data for 137 early-type galaxies in nine clusters, and for a set of nearby standard galaxies. The clusters studied are Perseus (A0426), Pisces, A0262, A0347, J8, HMS0122+3305, 7S21, A2199 and…
We study the total gravitating mass distribution in the central region of 23 clusters of galaxies with Chandra. Using a new deprojection technique, we measure the temperature and gas density in the very central region of the clusters as a…
We use Hubble Space Telescope archival images to measure central surface brightness profiles of globular clusters around satellite galaxies of the Milky Way. We report results for 21 clusters around the LMC, 5 around the SMC, and 4 around…
Galaxies that contain bulges appear to contain central black holes whose masses correlate with the velocity dispersion of the bulge. We show that no corresponding relationship applies in the pure disk galaxy M33. Three-integral dynamical…
Radial density profiles for the sample of dense cores associated with high-mass star-forming regions from southern hemisphere have been derived using the data of observations in continuum at 250 GHz. Radial density profiles for the inner…

We determine the total enclosed mass profile from 0.7 to 35 kpc in the elliptical galaxy NGC 4636 based on the hot interstellar medium temperature profile measured using the Chandra X-ray Observatory, and other X-ray and optical data. The…
This work presents the results from extending the long-term monitoring program of stellar motions within the Galactic Center to include stars with separations of 2 - 7 arcseconds from the compact radio source, Sgr A*. In comparison to the…
We constrain the assembly history of galaxies in the projected central 0.5 Mpc of the Coma cluster by performing structural decomposition on 69 massive (M_star >= 10^9 M_sun) galaxies using high-resolution F814W images from the HST Treasury…
We present a spectroscopic deprojection analysis of a sample of ten relaxed galaxy clusters. We use an empirical F-test derived from a set of Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulations to determine if the core plasma in each cluster could contain…
We explore similarities in the luminosity distribution of early type galaxies and the mass profiles of LCDM halos. The spatial structure of these systems may be accurately described by a simple law where the logarithmic slope of the…
We derive the light profiles for a sample of 25 dwarf elliptical galaxies observed by us with HST/WFPC2 in F555W and F814W. These profiles are fitted with Nuker, R^1/4, exponential, and Sersic laws, and are also used to derive the nuclear…

The Hypervelocity Star survey presents the currently largest sample of radial velocity measurements of halo stars out to 80 kpc. We apply spherical Jeans modeling to these data in order to derive the mass profile of the Galaxy. We restrict…
