Extended Hi Rotation Curve and Mass Distribution of M31
New HI observations of Messier 31 (M31) obtained with the Effelsberg and Green Bank 100-m telescopes make it possible to measure the rotation curve of that galaxy out to ∼ 35 kpc. Between 20 and 35 kpc, the rotation curve is nearly flat at a velocity of ∼ 226 km s−1 . A model of the mass distribution shows that at the last observed velocity point, the minimum dark–to–luminous mass ratio is ∼ 0....
متن کاملOn the Distribution Functions of the Range and Quasi-range for the Extended Type I Generalized Logistic Distribution
In this paper, we obtain the distribution functions of the range and the quasi-range of the random variables arising from the extended type I generalized logistic distribution.
متن کاملCompatibility of the CO and H I linewidths considering the gas distribution and rotation curves
We have found the trend between CO and Hi linewidths by compiling the CO and Hi linewidths of 219 nearby galaxies. The trend is that the CO linewidths of fast rotating galaxies tend to be larger than the Hi linewidths, and that the Hi linewidths of slow rotating galaxies tend to be larger than the CO linewidths, whereas the intermediately rotating galaxies have almost equal values. We have exam...
متن کاملMass of the Galaxy Inferred from Outer Rotation Curve
Using an outer rotation curve of the Galaxy, we explore the galactic constants and the mass of the Galaxy. We show that Θ0 of 200 km s −1 is more favorable than the IAU standard value of 220 km s, and also show that if Θ0 is smaller than 207 km s −1 the rotation curve beyond 2R0 is declining in Keplerian fashion. In the case of Θ0= 200 km s −1 and R0= 7.6 kpc, the total mass and the extent of t...
متن کاملPossible detection of the M31 rotation in WMAP data
Data on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) had a profound impact on the understanding of a variety of physical processes in the early phases of the Universe and on the estimation of the cosmological parameters. Here, the 7-year WMAP data are used to trace the disk and the halo of the nearby giant spiral galaxy M 31. We analyzed the...
