A configuration whose density profile coincides with the Newtonian potential for spiral galaxies is constructed from a 4D isotropic metric plus extra dimensional components. A Miyamoto-Nagai ansatz is used to solve Einstein equations. The…
We present a novel positive potential-density pair expansion for modelling galaxies, based on the Miyamoto-Nagai (MN) disc. By using three sets of such discs, each one of them aligned along each symmetry axis, we are able to reconstruct a…
A new formula for the gravitational potential of flattened systems is proposed. It is a modification of the Miyamoto-Nagai potential and should be applied to very flattened systems, exponential discs as a typical example. The resulting…
Aims. Galaxy mass models based on simple and analytical functions for the density and potential pairs have been widely proposed in the literature. Disk models constrained by kinematic data alone give information on the global disk structure…
