Pseudo Rotation Curve connecting the Galaxy , Dark Halo , and Local Group
We construct a Galacto-Local Group rotation curve, combining the Galactic rotation curve with a diagram, where galacto-centric radial velocities of outer globular clusters and member galaxies of the Local Group are plotted against their galacto-centric distances. The high-velocity ends of this pseudo rotation curve within a radius R ∼ 150 kpc are well traced by a rotation curve calculated for t...
متن کاملUnified Rotation Curve of the Galaxy — Decomposition into de Vaucouleurs Bulge , Disk , Dark Halo , and the 9 - kpc Rotation Dip —
We present a unified rotation curve of the Galaxy re-constructed from the existing data by re-calculating the distances and velocities for a set of galactic constants R0 =8 kpc and V0 =200 km s . We decompose it into a bulge with de Vaucouleurs-law profile of half-mass scale radius 0.5 kpc and mass 1.8×10M⊙, an exponential disk of scale radius 3.5 kpc of 6.5× 10M⊙, and an isothermal dark halo o...
متن کاملDark Halo and Disk Galaxy Scaling Laws
I highlight recent progress in our understanding of the origin of disk galaxy scaling laws in a hierarchically clustering universe. Numerical simulations of galaxy formation in Cold Dark Matter (CDM) dominated universes indicate that the slope and scatter of the I-band Tully-Fisher (TF) relation are well reproduced in this model, although not, as proposed in recent work, because of the cosmolog...
متن کاملThe galaxy–dark matter halo connection: which galaxy properties are correlated with the host halo mass?
We demonstrate how the properties of a galaxy depend on the mass of its host dark matter subhalo, using two independent models of galaxy formation. For the cases of stellar mass and black holemass, themedian property value displays amonotonic dependence on subhalomass. The slope of the relation changes for subhalomasses for which heating by active galactic nuclei becomes important. The median p...
متن کاملPulsating red giant and supergiant stars in the Local Group dwarf galaxy Andromeda I
We have conducted an optical long-term monitoring survey of the majority of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group, with the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT), to identify the long period variable (LPV) stars. LPV stars vary on timescales of months to years, and reach the largest amplitudes of their brightness variations at optical wavelengths, due to the changing temperature. They trace stellar populati...
