Kinematic Clues to Bar Evolution for Galaxies in the Local Universe: Why the Fastest Rotating Bars are Rotating Most Slowly
We have used Spitzer images of a sample of 68 barred spiral galaxies in the local universe to make systematic measurements of bar length and bar strength. We...
Kinematic profiles of dumbbell galaxies with twisted radio jets.
We study the orbital properties of dumbbell galaxies which harbor twisted radio jets. Velocity and velocity dispersion profiles for four dumbbell pairs (3C66B...
Kinematic Properties as Probes of the Evolution of Dwarf Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster
We present new observational results on the kinematical, morphological, and stellar population properties of a sample of 21 dEs located both in the Virgo...
Kinematic properties of gas and stars in 20 disc galaxies
Ionized gas and stellar kinematical parameters have been measured along the major axis of 20 nearby disc galaxies. We discuss the properties of each sample...
Star clusters provide a unique and powerful probe useful for studying the star formation histories of galaxies. In particular, the ages, metallicities and...
Kinematic properties of superbubbles in the Antennae, M83 and Arp 270
Superbubbles and large scale expansion in galaxies are important indicators of activity in galaxies: they are formed in starbursts and around active nuclei...
Kinematic signatures of nuclear discs and bar-driven secular evolution in nearby galaxies of the MUSE TIMER project
The central regions of disc galaxies hold clues to the processes that dominate their formation and evolution. To exploit this, the TIMER project has obtained...
Context. The kinematics of planetary nebulae in external galaxies and in our own is a clue for understanding the behavior of the low- and intermediate-mass...
