We have obtained Tully-Fisher (TF) measurements for some 3000 late-type galaxies in the field and in 76 clusters distributed throughout the sky between 10 and 200\h Mpc. The cluster data are applied to the construction of an I band TF…

We have obtained new Tully-Fisher (TF) peculiar velocity measurements for 52 Abell galaxy clusters distributed throughout the sky between ~ 50 and 200 Mpc/h.The measurements are based on I band photometry and optical rotation curves for a…

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…

We present a method for deriving a smoothed estimate of the peculiar velocity field of a set of galaxies with measured circular velocities $\eta\equiv {\rm log} \Delta v$ and apparent magnitudes $m$. The method is based on minimizing the…

Monopole and dipole signatures of the peculiar velocity field as derived from the SFI sample of field spirals and the SCI and SC2 samples of cluster spirals are presented. The monopole exhibits no evidence of a `Hubble bubble' within 7000…

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 peculiar velocity function of clusters of galaxies is determined using an accurate sample of cluster velocities based on Tully-Fisher distances of Sc galaxies (Giovanelli et al 1995b). In contrast with previous results based on samples…

Spiral galaxies can be affected by interactions in clusters, that also may distort the internal velocity field. If unrecognized from single-slit spectroscopy, this could lead to a wrong determination of the maximum rotation velocity as…

We study the peculiar velocity field inferred from the Mark III spirals using a new method of analysis. We estimate optimal values of Tully-Fisher scatter and zero-point offset, and we derive the 3-dimensional rms peculiar velocity…
