The mass-size relations of galaxies are generally studied considering only stars or only gas separately. Here we study the baryonic mass-size relation of galaxies from the SPARC database, using the total baryonic mass ($M_{\rm bar}$) and…
The observed rotation curves of disc galaxies, ranging from late-type dwarf galaxies to early-type spirals, can be fit remarkably well simply by scaling up the contributions of the stellar and HI discs. This `baryonic scaling model' can…
The baryonic mass-size relation of galaxies links the total baryonic mass (stars plus gas) to the baryonic half-mass radius. In the first paper of this series, we showed that star-forming galaxies from the SPARC sample follow two distinct…
The relations between the specific angular momenta ($j$) and masses ($M$) of galaxies are often used as a benchmark in analytic models and hydrodynamical simulations as they are considered to be amongst the most fundamental scaling…
We combine data for extragalactic systems to quantify a relation between the observed baryonic mass $M_b$ and the enclosed dynamical mass $M_{200}$ inferred from kinematics or gravitational lensing. Our sample covers nine orders of…
We present a summary of recent assessments of the mass distribution in disk galaxies. Of issue in order to characterize galaxy formation models is to determine the relative fraction of baryons and dark matter at all radii in galaxies. For…
We compute the baryonic mass function (BMF) of disc galaxies using the best LFs and baryonic M/L ratios reliable for this goal. For baryonic masses (M_b) ranging between 10^8 and 10^{11} solar masses, the BMF is featureless, i.e. it scales…
In the Big Bang about 5% of the mass that was created was in the form of normal baryonic matter (neutrons and protons). Of this about 10% ended up in galaxies in the form of stars or of gas (that can be in molecules, can be atomic, or can…
(Abridged) The relations between stellar ($M_\ast$), gas ($M_{\rm gas}$), baryonic ($M_{\rm bar} = M_\ast + M_{\rm gas}$), and dark matter halo mass ($M_{200}$) provide unique constraints on galaxy formation and cosmology. The shape of the…
I investigate the Baryonic Tully-Fisher relation for a sample of galaxies with extended 21 cm rotation curves spanning the range 20 < Vf < 300 km/s. A variety of scalings of the stellar mass-to-light ratio are considered. For each…
(Abridged) Specific angular momentum is one of the key parameters that control the evolution of galaxies. We derive the baryonic specific angular momentum of disc galaxies and study its relation with the dark matter specific angular…
The baryonic fraction of galaxies is observed to vary with the mass of its dark matter (DM) halo. Low-mass galaxies have low baryonic fractions which increase to a maximum for masses near $10^{12}\ M_{\odot}$, and decreases thereafter with…
(Abridged) Based on XMM-Newton, Chandra and SDSS data, we investigate the baryon distribution in groups and clusters and its use as a cosmological constraint. For this, we considered a sample of 123 systems, with total masses in the mass…
The kinematic dispersions of disc stars can be used to measure the dynamic contributions of baryons to the rotation curves of spiral galaxies and hence to trace the amount and distribution of the remaining dark matter. However, the simple…
The mass-size relation is a fundamental galaxy scaling law closely tied to galaxy formation and evolution. Using added-value products of the Calar Alto Void Integral-field Treasury surveY (CAVITY) and SDSS DR16 images, we examine the effect…
I use volume- and mass-limited subsamples and recently published data from the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G) to investigate how the size of bars depends on galaxy properties. The known correlation between bar…
The mass discrepancy in disk galaxies is shown to be well correlated with acceleration, increasing systematically with decreasing acceleration below a critical scale a0 = 3700 km^2/s^2/kpc = 1.2E-10 m/s/s. For each galaxy, there is an…
We present dynamical scaling relations for a homogeneous and representative sample of ~500 massive galaxies, selected only by stellar mass (>10^10 Msun) and redshift (0.025<z<0.05) as part of the ongoing GALEX Arecibo SDSS Survey. We…
We explore how the slopes and scatters of the scaling relations of disk galaxies (Vm-L[-M], R-L[-M], and Vm-R) do change when moving from B to K bands and to stellar and baryonic quantities. For our compiled sample of 76 normal,…
Having to have low thermal energy, the molecular gas in galaxies is expected to settle in a thin disc near the midplane. However, contradicting this understanding, recent studies have revealed considerably thick molecular discs in nearby…
