Regular Chains of Star Formation Regions in Spiral Arms and Rings of Disk Galaxies
AbstractThe regularity in the distribution of young stellar groups along the spiral arms of galaxies, first discovered by Bruce and Debra Elmegreen...

Rotational curves decomposition of spiral galaxies using least square non-linear regression
Dark Matter mass distribution is studied in a Cold Dark Matter Universe using Navarro–Frenk–White density profile for Dark Matter (DM) in spiral...

Mesoscale Magnetic Structures in Spiral Galaxies
Virtually all spiral galaxies host magnetic fields ordered at scales comparable to the galactic size (Beck et al., 1996; Beck, 2000, 2001).... -
Nuclear Stellar Disks in Spiral Galaxies
We report the discovery of a nuclear stellar disk in 3 early-type spirals, namely NGC 1425, NGC 3898 and NGC 4698, revealed by WFPC2/F606W images out... -
Spiral Structure of Galaxies in Generalised Gravitational Theories
AbstractMotion of stars in galactic discs is considered in the epicyclic approximation given potentials derived from gauge gravitation theory and...

The Building Blocks of Spiral Arms in Galaxies
This is a review paper on the prevailing theories that explain the orbital content of galactic potentials that can support the spiral arms. In the... -
Stellar Populations in Spiral Galaxies
Color gradients in galaxies reveal information about the nature of their stellar populations via age and metallicity trends, and the amount and... -
Chemical Evolution of Bulges of Spiral Galaxies: Environmental and Morphological Influence
This project is aimed at studying the chemical evolution of bulges of spiral galaxies, with the goals to understand how much the properties of bulges... -

Nonlinear Phenomena Sha** the Structure of Spiral Galaxies
The structures observed in disk galaxies can be explained by the presence of nonlinear phenomena associated with dynamical mechanisms acting in their... -
On the Formation of Spiral Arms in Dwarf Galaxies
AbstractSpiral structure (both flocculent and Grand Design types) is very rarely observed in dwarf galaxies because the formation of spiral arms...

Galaxies
Various classification schemes for galaxies are introduced, including the Hubble-de Vaucouleurs sequence, as well as other classes of galaxy:... -
The Brightest Stars of Irregular and Low-Mass Spiral Galaxies
AbstractA search for a correlation between the luminosities of the brightest stars and luminosities of their host galaxies was carried out on...

Gas Minor-Axis Velocity Gradients in Early-Type Spiral Galaxies
We measured a remarkable gas velocity gradient along the minor axis of 5 early-type spiral galaxies. This phenomenon suggests the presence of a... -
Masses of Isolated Spiral KIG Galaxies, Determined by the Motions of Their Faint Companions
AbstractWe have updated the classification of late-type galaxies presented in the Catalog of Isolated Galaxies (KIG) using the advanced digital sky...

Astrocladistics: evolutionary classification for galaxies of the M81 group
This work deals with the classification of galaxies based on the evolutionary and hierarchical development of their parameters. We apply the...

Effect of dark matter haloes on the orbital and escape dynamics of barred galaxies
This work examines the effect of dark matter haloes on the fate of bar-driven esca** patterns in disc galaxies. In this study, a three-dimensional...

Galaxies
After individual compact objects and sun-like stars, galaxies are the next larger structured objects that are presented here. We start with our... -
Globular Cluster Systems of Spiral Galaxies Beyond the Local Group
As part of a wide-field CCD survey of the globular cluster systems of distant giant galaxies, we have observed a total of nine spiral galaxies in...
