We compare infrared Tully-Fisher (TF) distances and peculiar velocities derived for spiral galaxies from the two largest datasets: the 2MASS selected Flat Galaxy Catalog, 2MFGC [19, 20] and the Arecibo General Catalog with I-band…
Spatially resolved velocity profiles are presented for nine faint field galaxies in the redshift range 0.1 < z < 1, based on moderate-resolution spectroscopy obtained with the Keck 10 m telescope. These data were augmented with…
We present first results from our project to examine the internal kinematics of disk galaxies in 7 rich clusters with 0.3<=z<0.6. Spatially resolved MOS spectra have been obtained with FORS at the VLT. We concentrate here on the clusters…
We introduce our project on galaxy evolution in the environment of rich clusters aiming at disentangling the importance of specific interaction and galaxy transformation processes from the hierarchical evolution of galaxies in the field.…
We show that the Tully-Fisher relation observed for spiral galaxies can be explained in the current scenario of galaxy formation without invoking subtle assumptions, provided that galactic-sized dark haloes have shallow, core-like central…
Based on VLT/FORS spectroscopy and HST/ACS imaging, we have constructed a sample of ~200 field spiral galaxies that cover redshifts up to z~1. Such a large data set allows to study the evolution of fundamental galaxy parameters like…
We construct the first "face-on" Tully-Fisher (TF) relation for 24 galaxies with inclinations between 16 degrees and 41 degrees. The enabling measurements are integral-field, echelle spectroscopy from the WIYN 3.5m telescope, which yield…
Super spirals are the most massive star-forming disk galaxies in the universe (Ogle et al. 2016, 2019). We measured rotation curves for 23 massive spirals and find a wide range of fast rotation speeds (240-570 km/s), indicating enclosed…
In recent work, Lelli et al. (2016) argue that the tightness of the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation (BTFR) of the SPARC galaxy sample, and the weakness of the correlation of its residuals with effective radius, pose challenges to LCDM…
The galaxies with photometric redshifts observed in a close angular proximity might be either projection coincidences, strongly lensed images of the same galaxy, or separate galaxies that are in a stage of merging. We search for the groups…
We present new 21-cm neutral hydrogen (HI) observations of spiral galaxies for the 2MASS Tully Fisher (2MTF) survey. Using the 64-m Parkes radio telescope multibeam system we obtain 152 high signal-to-noise HI spectra from which we extract…
We have previously demonstrated that Tully-Fisher residuals correlate with tracers of star formation history (color and emission line equivalent width) for a broad sample of Sa--Sd spiral galaxies (Kannappan, Fabricant, & Franx 2002). Here…
We present a new optical Tully-Fisher (TF) investigation for a complete, full-sky sample of 297 Sb-Sc spirals with redshifts between 4500 and 7000 km/s. The survey was specifically designed to provide uniform, well- calibrated data over…
The existence of a spatially resolved Star-Forming Main Sequence (rSFMS) and a spatially resolved Mass-Metallicity Relation (rMZR) is now well established for local galaxies. Moreover, gradients with metallicity decreasing with radius seem…
The main objective of my thesis was to provide us, for the first time, with a reliable view of the distant Hubble sequence, and its evolution over the past 6 Gyr. To achieve this goal, we have created a new morphological classification…
The baryonic Tully-Fisher relation (BTFR) and Faber-Jackson relation (FJR) represent fundamental scaling laws linking the baryonic mass of galaxies to their kinematics, yet their physical origin and apparent offsets between different galaxy…
We present a novel 2D flux density model for observed HI emission lines combined with a Bayesian stacking technique to measure the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation below the nominal detection threshold. We simulate a galaxy catalogue, which…
Using the latest sample of 48 spiral galaxies having a directly measured supermassive black hole mass, $M_{BH}$, we determine how the maximum disk rotational velocity, $v_{max}$ (and the implied dark matter halo mass, $M_{DM}$), correlates…
We discuss the integrated kinematic parameters of 20 M51-type binary galaxies. A comparison of the orbital masses of the galaxies with the sum of the individual masses suggests that moderately massive dark halos surround bright spiral…
The current status of numerical simulations of the formation of galaxies is reviewed. Success and failure of modeling galaxies at low and high redshift is demonstrated using a variety of examples, such as the Tully-Fisher relation, the…
