We present results from the KMOS Lens-Amplified Spectroscopic Survey (KLASS), an ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT) large program using gravitational lensing to study the spatially resolved kinematics of 44 star-forming galaxies at 0.6<z<2.3…

We took spatially resolved slit spectra of 261 field disk galaxies at redshifts up to z~1 using the FORS instruments of the ESO Very Large Telescope. Our spectroscopy was complemented with HST/ACS imaging in the F814W filter. We analyzed…

We have measured maximum rotation velocities (Vrot) for a sample of 111 emission-line galaxies with 0.1 < z < 1, observed in the fields of 6 clusters. From these data we construct 'matched' samples of 58 field and 22 cluster galaxies,…

The rotation curves of disk galaxies exhibit a number of striking regularities. The amplitude of the rotation is correlated with luminosity (Tully-Fisher), the shape of the rotation curve is well predicted by the luminous mass distribution,…

We present an I-band Tully-Fisher relation (TFR) for 18 nearby S0 galaxies using kinematics derived from long slit spectroscopy of stellar absorption lines. Our estimates of the circular velocity, V_c, at 2-3 exponential disk scale lengths…

Several measures of galaxy size and mass obtained from the neutral hydrogen mapping of 70 dwarf irregular galaxies presented in Paper I (Hoffman et al. 1996) are compared statistically to those for the set of all available HI-mapped dwarfs…

We study the evolution of the [O/Fe]-[Fe/H] relation and the dependence of the iron abundance on distance from the galactic plane z in a one-zone model for a disk galaxy, starting from the beginning of star formation (Wiebe98). We obtain…

It is crucial to understand how the Milky Way, the galaxy we can study in the most intimate detail, fits in amongst other galaxies. Key examples include the Tully-Fisher relation (TFR) --- i.e., the tight correlation between luminosity…

We use Monte Carlo realizations of halo formation histories and a spherical accretion model to calculate the expected scatter in the velocity dispersions of galactic halos of a given mass due to differences in their formation times.…

The scaling of disk galaxy rotation velocity with baryonic mass (the "Baryonic Tully-Fisher" relation, BTF) has long confounded galaxy formation models. It is steeper than the M ~ V^3 scaling relating halo virial masses and circular…

The Tully-Fisher relations for a complete sample of spirals in the Ursa Major cluster is investigated. The merits of combining B, R, I and K' photometry with HI rotation curves (RCs) have been exploited. In addition to the corrected HI…

The Tully-Fisher relationship is subject to morphological type dependence such that galaxies of morphology similar to ScI galaxies and Seyfert galaxies are more luminous at a given rotational velocity than galaxies of other morphological…

In 2016 McGaugh, Lelli and Schombert established a universal Radial Acceleration Relation for centripetal accelerations in spiral galaxies. Their work showed a strong correlation between observed centripetal accelerations and those…

We derive the Tully-Fisher (TFR, $M_\ast-V_{\rm circ,f}$) and Fall (FR, $j_\ast-M_\ast$) relations at redshift $z = 0.9$ using a sample of 43 main-sequence disc galaxies with H$\alpha$ IFU data and JWST/HST imaging. The strength of our…

The Tully-Fisher Relation (TFR) is a well-known empirical relationship between the luminosity of a spiral galaxy and its circular velocity, allowing us to estimate redshift independent distances. Here we use high signal-to-noise HI 21-cm…

The Tully-Fisher relation (TFR) is an empirical relation between galaxy luminosity and rotation velocity. We present here the first TFR of galaxies beyond the local Universe that uses carbon monoxide (CO) as the kinematic tracer. Our final…

We investigate the influence of the star formation rate on the Tully-Fisher relation. We find that a simple model which combines the empirically-determined star-formation rate with the expected properties of galaxy halos provides a…
