Peculiar velocity measurements constrain the parameter combination $f\sigma_8$, the product of the linear growth rate $f$ and the fluctuation amplitude $\sigma_8$. Under the approximation that $f$ is a monotonic function of $\Omega_{\rm…

We compare the peculiar velocities derived from the I-band Tully-Fisher (TF) relation for 989 field spiral galaxies in the SFI catalogue with the predicted velocity field derived from the IRAS PSCz galaxy redshift survey. We assume linear…

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…

We present the SFI++ dataset, a homogeneously derived catalog of photometric and rotational properties and the Tully-Fisher distances and peculiar velocities derived from them. We make use of digital optical images, optical long-slit…

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…

The SFI++ consists of ~5000 spiral galaxies which have measurements suitable for the application of the I-band Tully-Fisher (TF) relation. This sample builds on the SCI and SFI samples published in the 1990s but includes significant amounts…

We calibrate the Tully-Fisher relation (TFR) with data from the DESI Peculiar Velocity (PV) Survey taken during the Survey Validation (SV) period of the DESI galaxy redshift survey. Placing spectroscopic fibers on the centers and major axes…

We present an analysis of the ENEAR sample of peculiar velocities of elliptical galaxies, obtained with D_n-\sigma distances. We use the velocity correlation function to analyze the statistics of the field-object's velocities, while the…

We have combined five Tully-Fisher (TF) redshift-distance samples for peculiar velocity analysis: the cluster data of Han, Mould and coworkers (1991-93, HM) and Willick (1991, W91CL), and the field data of Aaronson et al. (1992), Willick…

We present a maximum probability approach to reconstructing spatial maps of the peculiar velocity field at redshifts $z\sim0.1$, where the velocities have been measured from distance indicators (DI) such as $D_n-\sigma$ relations or…

We present a new method for fitting peculiar velocity models to complete flux limited magnitude-redshifts catalogues, using the luminosity function of the sources as a distance indicator.The method is characterised by its robustness. In…

We present a comparison between the peculiar velocity fields measured from the SFI all-sky Sbc-Sc Tully-Fisher catalog and that derived from the \iras 1.2 Jy redshift survey galaxy distribution. The analysis is based on the expansion of…

We compare Tully-Fisher (TF) data for 838 galaxies within cz=3000 km/sec from the Mark III catalog to the peculiar velocity and density fields predicted from the 1.2 Jy IRAS redshift survey. Our goal is to test the relation between the…

We present the first results from the Shellflow program, an all-sky Tully-Fisher (TF) peculiar velocity survey of 276 Sb-Sc galaxies with redshifts between 4500 and 7000 km/s. Shellflow was designed to minimize systematic errors between…
