We present a 2D kinematic analysis out to ~2-5 effective radii (Re) of 33 massive elliptical galaxies with stellar velocity dispersions larger than 150 km/s. Our observations were taken using the Mitchell Spectrograph (formerly VIRUS-P), a…
Using a dynamical 3-D reconstruction procedure we estimate the peculiar velocities of $R\ge0$ Abell/ACO galaxy clusters from their measured redshift within 25000 km/sec. The reconstruction algorithm relies on the linear gravitational…
The Pyxis globular cluster is a recently discovered globular cluster that lies in the outer halo (R_{gc} ~ 40 kpc) of the Milky Way. Pyxis lies along one of the proposed orbital planes of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), and it has been…
We present the measurement of radial velocities for globular clusters in M60, giant elliptical galaxy in the Virgo cluster. Target globular cluster candidates were selected using the Washington photometry based on the deep $16\arcmin \times…
High-precision measurements of radial velocities of the M 67 cluster members are used to calculate the radial-velocity dispersions in the stellar groups found earlier in the cluster's corona. The previously detected feature in one of the…
Several recent numerical simulations of off-center cluster mergers predict that significant angular momentum with associated velocities of a few x 10^{3} km/s can be imparted to the resulting cluster. Such gas bulk velocities can be…
NGC 3311 is the central cD galaxy of the Hydra I cluster. We use globular clusters around NGC 3311, combined with kinematical data of the galaxy itself, to investigate the dark matter distribution in the central region of Hydra I. Radial…
Here we present positions and radial velocities for over 4000 globular clusters (GCs) in 27 nearby early-type galaxies from the SLUGGS survey. The SLUGGS survey is designed to be representative of elliptical and lenticular galaxies in the…
An intriguing silhouette of a small dust patch can be seen against the disk of the S0 galaxy NGC 3269 in the Antlia cluster in optical images. The images do not provide any clue as to whether the patch is a local Jupiter mass-scale cloudlet…
We present new radial velocities for 87 globular clusters around the elliptical galaxy NGC 4472, and combine these with our previously published data to create a data set of velocities for 144 globular clusters around NGC 4472. We utilize…
We used Gaia DR2 data in order to estimate parameters of the Pleiades. With the data on stars with m_G<=18 mag, we constructed the density maps and profile, luminosity and mass functions, determined the cluster radius, 10.9+/-0.3 deg…
This paper is the first of a series considering the properties of distribution of nearby galaxies in the low density regions. Among 7596 galaxies with radial velocities V_{LG}<3500 km/s, absolute magnitudes M_K<-18.4^m$, and Galactic…
A study of the galaxy distribution in the field of the elliptical galaxy NGC1600 has been undertaken. Although this galaxy is often classified as a member of a loose group, all the neighbouring galaxies are much fainter and could be taken…
A total of 663 galaxies with known redshifts in a $6\deg\!\times 6\deg$ field centered on A2634, including 211 new measurements, are used to study the structure of this cluster and its surroundings. Two samples, ---one containing 200…
We present preliminary results of our dynamical study of the outer globular cluster system of NGC 1399, the central galaxy in the Fornax Cluster. About 160 new radial velocities for globular clusters at projected galactocentric distances…

Radial velocity dispersion in spheroidal and elliptical galaxies, as a function of radial distance from the center of the galaxy, has been derived from Cosmological Special Relativity. For velocity dispersions in the outer regions of…
