We compare the basic properties and kinematics of two gas-rich dwarf galaxies: KK246 and Holmberg II (HoII). HoII is 20 times more luminous in the blue-band than KK246 and its HI mass is a factor of 6 higher than in KK246. However, the…

Within the framework of modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) we investigate the kinematics of two dwarf spiral galaxies belonging to very different environments, namely KK 246 in the Local Void and Holmberg II in the M81 group. A mass model…

We have carried out a search for gas-rich dwarf galaxies that have lower rotation velocities in their outskirts than MOdified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) predicts, so that the amplitude of their rotation curves cannot be fitted by arbitrarily…

We present new HI interferometric observations of the gas-rich ultra-diffuse galaxy AGC 114905, which previous work, based on low-resolution data, identified as an outlier of the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation. The new observations, at a…

We present radio interferometric observations of two irregular galaxies that were candidates for having unusually extended HI emission. The galaxies, UGC 199 and DDO 26, otherwise appeared to be normal, low-luminosity systems with modest…

Numerical hydrodynamical modelling of supernova-driven shell formation is performed with a purpose to reproduce a giant HI ring (diameter 1.7 kpc) in the dwarf irregular galaxy Holmberg I (Ho I). We find that the contrast in HI surface…

The rotation curves of 20 spiral galaxies are examined in the light of a toy model (Soares 1992) which has as the main feature the assignment of a high M/L ratio (=30; Ho=50 km/s/Mpc) to the visible matter. The observed rotation of all…

We present UBVJHKHalpha and HI data of the irregular galaxy NGC 2366. It is a normal boxy-shaped disk seen at high inclination angle. We do not see any unambiguous observational signature of a bar. There is an asymmetrical extension of…

We model the observed vertical distribution of the neutral hydrogen (HI) in the faint (M_B ~ -13.7 mag) edge-on dwarf irregular galaxy KK250. Our model assumes that the galaxy consists of axi-symmetric, co-planar gas and stellar discs in…

The outskirts of galaxies are a very good laboratory for testing the nature of the gravitational field at low accelerations. By assuming that the neutral hydrogen gas is in hydrostatic equilibrium in the gravitational potential of the host…

We extend the MOND analysis to a sample of 17 high surface brightness, early-type disc galaxies with rotation curves derived from a combination of 21cm HI line observations and optical spectroscopic data. A number of these galaxies have…

Sensitive 21cm HI observations have been made with the Green Bank Telescope toward the newly-discovered Local Group dwarf galaxy Hydra II, which may lie within the leading arm of the Magellanic Stream. No neutral hydrogen was detected. Our…

This article reports a measurement of the proper motion of Leo II, a dwarf galaxy that is a likely satellite of the Milky Way, based on imaging with the Hubble Space Telescope and Wide Field Camera 3. The measurement uses compact background…

We study the orbits in the MOND theory within a dwarf galaxy of mass Md at a distance of ~100kpc from a neighboring galaxy of mass Mg, such as ours. It is assumed that a second mass m<<Md is gravitationally bound to Md by a previously…

We obtained ESI/Keck rotation curves of 10 MgII absorption selected galaxies (0.3 < z < 1.0) for which we have WFPC-2/HST images and high resolution HIRES/Keck and UVES/VLT quasar spectra of the MgII absorption profiles. We perform a…

We present a new set of galaxy scaling relations for the relative mass content of atomic gas, molecular gas and stars. Such relations are driven by disc gravitational instability, and originate from the low galaxy-to-galaxy variance of…

We present the results of study of the ionized gas velocity fields in 28 nearby (systemic velocity below 1000 km/s) dwarf galaxies. The observations were made at the 6-m BTA telescope of the SAO RAS with the scanning Fabry-Perot…

A sample of 22 spiral galaxies compiled from published data is studied. The galaxy rotation curves pass through a maximum distance of more than $\sim 1$ kpc from the center with a subsequent decrease in the rotation velocity. The galaxy…

Rotating galaxies with relaxed gaseous disks have been discovered across cosmic time, from the local Universe to high redshift (z>4). But few such sources have been confirmed at z>4, making them a precious sample to examine what conditions…

We present H-alpha rotation curves of two low luminosity field galaxies with r-band absolute magnitudes M_r=-13.9^{+0.8}_{-0.5} and M_r=-14.7^{+0.3}_{-0.2} (for h=0.7; the large error bars reflect distance uncertainties). Most previously…
