The Tully-Fisher relations for a complete sample of spirals in the Ursa Major cluster is investigated. The merits of combining B, R, I and K' photometry with HI rotation curves (RCs) have been exploited. In addition to the corrected HI…
The observed radial velocity of a galaxy consists of two main components: the recession velocity caused by the smooth Hubble expansion and the peculiar velocity resulting from the gravitational attraction of growing structures due to matter…
In a previous paper, we have demonstrated the importance to define a statistical model describing the observed linear correlation between the absolute magnitude $M$ and the log line width distance indicator $p$ of galaxies (the Tully-Fisher…
Using the Very Large Telescope in Multi Object Spectroscopy mode, we have observed a sample of 113 field spiral galaxies in the FORS Deep Field (FDF) with redshifts in the range 0.1<z<1.0. The galaxies were selected upon apparent brightness…
We have obtained I band Tully-Fisher (TF) measurements for 522 late-type galaxies in the fields of 52 rich Abell clusters distributed throughout the sky between 50 and 200\h Mpc. Here we estimate corrections to the data for various forms of…
The Teerikorpi incompleteness bias in the distance modulus of a galaxy cluster that is determined from incomplete data using the Tully-Fisher (TF) method is discussed differently than has been done in earlier papers of this series. A toy…
A Tully-Fisher (TF) relation from H-alpha rotation curves of 19 luminous, star-forming galaxies reveals there is little evidence for evolution in the mass-to-light ratio (M/L) of these galaxies to z~0.3. The near-infrared Tolman…
We have measured the distribution of intrinsic ellipticities for a sample of 28 relatively face-on spiral disks. We combine H-alpha velocity fields and R and I-band images to determine differences between kinematic and photometric…
The Tully-Fisher relationship is subject to morphological type dependence such that galaxies of morphology similar to ScI galaxies and Seyfert galaxies are more luminous at a given rotational velocity than galaxies of other morphological…
We have gained VLT/FORS spectra and HST/ACS images of a sample of 220 distant field spiral galaxies. Spatially resolved rotation curves were extracted and fitted with synthetic velocity fields that take into account all geometric and…
A precise derivation of the evolution of the Tully Fisher is crucial to understand the interplay between dark matter and baryonic matter in cosmological models, Using 15 deployable integral field units of FLAMES/GIRAFFE at VLT, we have…
The interstellar gas in spiral galaxies can constitute a significant fraction of the baryon mass and it has been demonstrated that the sum of stellar and gas components correlates well with the kinematic signature of the total mass content,…
The 2 Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) Tully-Fisher Survey (2MTF) aims to measure Tully-Fisher (TF) distances to all bright inclined spirals in the 2MASS Redshift Survey (2MRS). Essential to this project is a universal calibration of the TF…
We measure the Tully-Fisher relations of 14 lenticular galaxies (S0s) and 14 spirals. We use two measures of rotational velocity. One is derived directly from observed spatially-resolved stellar kinematics and the other from the circular…
We use optical rotation curves to investigate the R-band Tully-Fisher properties of a sample of 90 spiral galaxies in close pairs. The galaxies follow the Tully-Fisher relation remarkably well, with the exception of eight distinct 3-sigma…
Distance measures on a coherent scale around the sky are required to address the outstanding cosmological problems of the Hubble Constant and of departures from the mean cosmic flow. The correlation between galaxy luminosities and rotation…
This paper explores the adherence of 47 extreme late-type galaxies to the B- and V-band Tully-Fisher relations defined by a sample of local calibrators. In both bands we find the mean luminosity at a given line width for extreme late-type…
We use the semi-analytic model GalICS to predict the Tully-Fisher relation in the B, I and for the first time, in the K band, and its evolution with redshift, up to z~1. We refined the determination of the disk galaxies rotation velocity,…
The Tully-Fisher relation (TFR) is one of the most important and widely used empirical correlations in extragalactic astronomy. Apart from its importance as a secondary distance indicator, the TFR relation serves as a test for galaxy…
We have investigated the Tully-Fisher relation for Polar Ring Galaxies (PRGs), based on near infrared, optical and HI data available for a sample of these peculiar objects. The total K-band luminosity, which mainly comes from the central…
