A low mass-to-light ratio for the stellar component of spiral galaxies (M/L<1 in the I-band) is advocated by various dynamical arguments and by recent cosmological simulations of the formation of these systems. We discuss this possibility…

Cosmological simulations of disc galaxy formation, when compared to the observed Tully-Fisher relation, suggest a low Mass-to-Light (M/L) ratio for the stellar component in spirals. We show that a number of "bottom-light" Initial Mass…

We present mass models of a sample of 19 low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies and compare the properties of their constituent mass components with those of a sample of high surface brightness (HSB) galaxies.We find that LSB galaxies are…

Low Surface Brightness (LSB) galaxies form a large population of disc galaxies that extend the Hubble sequence towards extreme late-types. They are only slowly evolving, and still in an early evolutionary state. The Tully-Fisher relation…

The disk masses of four low surface brightness galaxies (LSB) were estimated using marginal gravitational stability criterion and the stellar velocity dispersion data which were taken from Pizzella et al., 2008 [1]. The constructed mass…

An update of the set of low surface brightness galaxies is presented which can be used to set constraints on the otherwise ambiguous decompositions of their rotation curves into contributions due to the various components of the galaxies.…

An attempt is made to set constraints on the otherwise ambiguous decomposition of the rotation curves of low surface brightness galaxies into contributions due to the various components of the galaxies. For this purpose galaxies are…

We present mass models for a sample of 30 high-resolution rotation curves of low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies. We fit both pseudo-isothermal (core-dominated) and Cold Dark Matter (CDM) (cusp-dominated) halos for a wide variety of…

Dark matter (DM) is one of the biggest mystery in the Universe. In this review, after a brief discussion of the DM evidences and the main proposed candidates and scenarios for the DM phenomenon, we focus on recent results on rotating disc…

Low Surface Brightness (LSB) galaxies are dominated by dark matter. High-resolution rotation curves suggest that their total mass-density distributions are dominated by constant density cores rather than the steep and cuspy distributions…

Many results in modern astrophysics rest on the notion that the Initial Mass Function (IMF) is universal. Our observations of HI selected galaxies in the light of H-alpha and the far-ultraviolet (FUV) challenge this notion. The flux ratio…

We performed the photometric B, V and R observations of nine disk galaxies that were suspected in having abnormally low total mass-to-light (M/L) ratios for their observed color indices. We use our surface photometry data to analyze the…

Low Surface Brighness Galaxies (LSBs), inspite of being gas rich, have low star formation rates and are, therefore, low surface brightness in nature. We calculate Q$_{\rm{RW}}$, the 2-component disc stability parameter as proposed by Romeo…

Total mass-to-light ratio M/L_B for S0 - Irr galaxies, where M is the dynamical mass within the optical radius R_25, increases systematically with (B-V)_0 color, but slower than that is predicted by stellar population evolution models. It…

We investigate the properties of the baryonic and the dark matter components in low surface brightness (LSB) disc galaxies, with central surface brightness in the B band $\mu_0 \geq 23 \, mag \, arcsec^{-2}$. The sample is composed by 72…

The stellar initial mass function (IMF) is thought to be bottom-heavy in the cores of the most massive galaxies, with an excess of low mass stars compared to the Milky Way. However, studies of the kinematics of quiescent galaxies at 2<z<5…

We present N-body simulations of Low Surface Brightness (LSB) galaxies and their Interstellar Medium to investigate the cause for their low star formation rates (SFR).Due to their massive halos, stellar disks of LSB galaxies are very stable…

Low mass surface density spiral and irregular galaxies like low surface brightness (LSB) and dwarf galaxies are unique laboratories to study the dynamical properties of Dark Matter halos because their mass is generally dominated by dark…

Low Surface Brightness (LSB) galaxies are dominated by dark matter, and their rotation curves thus reflect their dark matter distribution. Recent high-resolution rotation curves suggest that their dark matter mass-density distributions are…

The observed brightness of the Tully-Fisher relation suggests a low stellar M/L ratio and a "bottom-light" IMF in disc galaxies, but the corresponding efficiency of chemical enrichment tends to exceed the observational estimates. Either…
