Context: In the early evolution of a planetary system, a pair of planets may be captured in a mean motion resonance while still embedded in their nesting circumstellar disk. Aims: The goal is to estimate the direction and amount of shift in…

We estimate the vertical gradient of rotational velocity for several spiral galaxies in the framework of a global thin-disc model, using the approximation of quasi-circular orbits. We obtain gradients having a broad range of values, in…

The strength and direction of migration of low mass planets depends on the disc's thermodynamics. In discs where the viscous heating is balanced by radiative transport, the migration can be directed outwards, a process which extends the…

The rotation curve of the Galaxy is generally thought to be flat. However, using radial velocities from interstellar molecular clouds, which is common in rotation curve determination, seems to be incorrect and may lead to incorrectly…

We use mock interferometric HI measurements and a conventional tilted-ring modelling procedure to estimate circular velocity curves of dwarf galaxy discs from the APOSTLE suite of {\Lambda}CDM cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. The…

Observations show that radial metallicity gradients in disk galaxies are relatively shallow, if not flat, especially at large galactocentric distances and for galaxies in the high-redshift universe. Given that star formation and metal…

A spinning rough disk moves through a rarefied medium on the plane. The roughness is formed by small cavities on the disk boundary. The medium is so rare that mutual interaction of particles can be neglected. All collisions of particles…
