The dark matter halo surface density, given by the product of the dark matter core radius ($r_c$) and core density ($\rho_c$) has been shown to be a constant for a wide range of isolated galaxy systems. Here, we carry out a test of this…
We present the results of a pilot project designed to study the distribution of dark matter haloes out to very large radii in spiral galaxies. As dynamical probe we use their rotation curves and the motions population of satellite galaxies.…
Rotation curves of galaxies probe their total mass distributions, including dark matter. Dwarf galaxies are excellent systems to investigate the dark matter density distribution, as they tend to have larger fractions of dark matter compared…
We analyze Ha or CO rotation curves (RCs) extending out to several galaxy effective radii for 100 massive, large, star-forming disk galaxies (SFGs) across the peak of cosmic galaxy star formation (z~0.6-2.5), more than doubling the previous…
We use the tapering effect of Halpha/[NII] rotation curves of spiral galaxies first noted by Goad & Roberts (1981) to investigate the internal extinction in disks. The scale length of exponential fits to the inner part of rotation curves…
We present high resolution Halpha rotation curves of 4 late-type dwarf galaxies and 2 low surface brightness galaxies (LSB) for which accurate HI rotation curves are available from the literature. Observations are carried out at Telescopio…
In the inner parts of spiral galaxies, of high or low surface brightness, there is a close correlation between rotation curve shape and light distribution. For any feature in the luminosity profile there is a corresponding feature in the…
We examine the circular velocity profiles of galaxies in {\Lambda}CDM cosmological hydrodynamical simulations from the EAGLE and LOCAL GROUPS projects and compare them with a compilation of observed rotation curves of galaxies spanning a…
We use recent very extended HI kinematics (out to 48 kpc) along with previous H$\alpha$ kinematics of the spiral galaxy NGC 3198 in order to derive its distribution of dark matter (DM). First, we used a chi-square method to model the…
Numerous observations have shown that the dark matter halo surface density, defined as the product of core radius and halo central density of cored dark matter haloes is nearly constant and independent of galaxy mass over a whole slew of…
Late-type low surface brightness galaxies (LSBs) are faint disk galaxies with central maximum stellar surface densities below 100 Msun/pc^2. The currently favored scenario for their origin is that LSBs have formed in fast-rotating halos…
The rotation dynamics of spiral galaxies is modeled using a sum of two mass distributions: a spherical bulge and a thin disk. The density functions representing these mass distributions are calculated from the total angular momentum of the…
Recently, from the new Spitzer Photometry and Accurate Rotation Curves (SPARC) data, McGaugh et al. (2016) reported a tight Radial Acceleration Relation (RAR) between the observed total acceleration and the acceleration produced by baryons…
[Abridged] We analyse the dark matter (DM) halo properties of 127 0.3<z<1.5 star-forming galaxies (SFGs) down to low stellar masses (8<log(Mstar/Msun)<11), using data from the MUSE Hubble Ultra Deep Field Survey and photometry from HST and…
Low-acceleration space-time scale invariant dynamics (SID, Milgrom 2009a) predicts two fundamental correlations known from observational galactic dynamics: the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation (BTFR) and a correlation between the observed…
We present distribution functions and spatial correlations of the shapes of dark matter halos derived from Hubble Volume simulations of a LambdaCDM universe. We measure both position and velocity shapes within spheres encompassing mean…
We use the concept of co-added rotation curves of Salucci et al. to investigate the properties of axi-symmetric multistate Scalar Field Dark Matter halos in low surface brightness galaxies and dwarf disc galaxies. We fit their rotation…
We present a deep (50 hours exposed) image of the nearby spiral galaxy M 63 (NGC 5055), taken with a 0.14-m aperture telescope. The galaxy halo exhibits the known very faint system of stellar streams extending across 110 kpc. We found 5…
The evidence of the phenomenon for which, in galaxies, the gravitating mass is distributed differently than the luminous mass, increases as new data become available. Furthermore, this discrepancy is well structured and it depends on the…
The results obtained from a study of the mass distribution of 36 spiral galaxies are presented. The galaxies were observed using Fabry-Perot interferometry as part of the GHASP survey. The main aim of obtaining high resolution H alpha 2D…
