It is believed that magnetic field lines are twisted and bend by turbulent motions in the Galaxy. Therefore, both Galactic synchrotron emission and thermal emission from dust reflects statistics of Galactic turbulence. Our simple model of…
Recent observations of the rotation curve of M31 show a rise of the outer part that can not be understood in terms of standard dark matter models or perturbations of the galactic disc by M31's satellites. Here, we propose an explanation of…
With the aim to determine the spatial distribution of dark matter, we investigate the polar ring galaxy NGC 4262. We used the stellar kinematics data for the central galaxy obtained from optical spectroscopy together with information about…
The linewidth of ions has been observed to be systematically narrower than that of the coexisting neutrals in molecular clouds (Houde et al. 2000) and been interpreted as the signature of the decoupling of the neutral turbulence from…
The main observational results from radio continuum and polarization observations about the magnetic field strength and large-scale pattern for face-on and edge-on spiral galaxies are summarized and compared within our sample of galaxies of…
We investigate the stellar disk structure of six nearby edge-on spiral galaxies using high-resolution JHKs-band images and 3D radiative transfer models. To explore how mass and environment shape spiral disks, we selected galaxies with…
We present new high resolution imaging of a light-scattering dust ring and halo around the young star HD 35841. Using spectroscopic and polarimetric data from the Gemini Planet Imager in H-band (1.6 microns), we detect the highly inclined…
We present $B,V,R,J,H,K$ broad--band images of the barred galaxy NGC 1097. The optical and infrared colors maps trace the location of the major dust features. The dust lanes are relatively free of star formation and have low opacity. The…
Anisotropic diffusion is one of the potential interpretations for the morphology of the Geminga pulsar halo. It interprets the observed slow-diffusion phenomenon through a geometric effect, assuming the mean magnetic field direction around…
We address the problem of the influence of large-scale magnetic fields on galactic rotation for the example of the spiral galaxy NGC 891. Based on its rotation curve and the surface density of HI we determine, in the framework of the global…
We present interferometric observations of CO J=1-0 emission in the central regions of the edge-on galaxy NGC 4631, known for its extended gaseous halo and its tidal interactions. Previous single-dish observations revealed that almost all…
We study the edge-on galaxy NGC 5775, utilizing a 58.2 ks {\sl Chandra} ACIS-S observation together with complementary {\sl HST} ACS, {\sl Spitzer} IRAC and other multi-wavelength data sets. This edge-on galaxy, with its disk-wide active…
We observed the nearby early-type spiral galaxy NGC 4594 (M 104, Sombrero galaxy) with the Very Large Array at 4.86 GHz, with the Effelsberg 100-m telescope at 8.35 GHz as well as with the Heinrich Hertz Telescope at 345 GHz in radio…
The absence of stellar disc truncations in low-inclined spiral galaxies has been a matter of debate in the last decade. Disc truncations are often observed in highly inclined galaxies but no obvious detection of this feature has so far been…
A decade ago, there was very limited knowledge of magnetic fields of our Galaxy. The local fields in the Solar vicinity were known to be directed towards a Galactic longitude $l\sim~90^{\circ}$ with reversed directions at smaller…
We present the first polarimetric observations of a circumstellar disk in the far-infrared wavelength range. We report flux and linear polarization measurements of the young stellar object HL Tau in the bands A (53 $\mu$m), C (89 $\mu$m), D…
Magnetic fields in turbulent, convective high-$\beta$ plasma naturally develop highly tangled and complex topologies---the solar photosphere being the paradigmatic example. These fields are mostly undetectable by standard diagnostic…
We present integrated polarization properties of nearby spiral galaxies at 4.8 GHz, and models for the integrated polarization of spiral galaxy disks as a function of inclination. Spiral galaxies in our sample have observed integrated…
Radio observations can show how cluster galaxies are affected by various environmental factors. We made three frequency radio-polarimetric VLA observations and performed sensitive XMM-Newton observations in X-rays and UV light of NGC4254.…
We investigate the three-dimensional structure of the nearby edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 891 using 3D Monte Carlo radiative transfer models, with realistic spiral structure and fractally clumped dust. Using the spiral and clumpiness…
