... According to the most popular cosmological paradigm, the greater part of the galaxy mass is accumulated in the dark matter halo. ... The polar ring galaxies (PRGs) reveal external rings or disks of gas, dust and stars rotating in a plane roughly perpendicular to the disk of the central galaxy. ... The shape of the dark halo in the model was chosen so as to achieve the best fit to the observed rotation of both galaxies themselves and their polar rings. ... The SPRC-7 galaxy. ...

Following are instructions to build and install the programs in this distribution. Make sure that you have all necessary tools for building executables. ... The automatic build process expects a configuration file called Config.local . ... The configuration file specifies the directory in which to install the binaries, as well as control over the generation of debugging code and reference clock support. ... Cleans out object files, programs and temporary files. make distclean . ...

Gerhardt Meurer (Johns Hopkins University) . The accompanying picture shows NGC 2915, which Australian, Canadian, and American astronomers have shown to be the darkest known disk galaxy. ... The team of astronomers, lead by Gerhardt Meurer at Johns Hopkins University, analyzed the rotation of the galaxy and showed that NGC 2915 is composed mostly of "dark matter". Dark matter is extremely difficult to detect since it does not emit any radiation. ... Gerhardt R. Meurer . ...

We study the emission by dust and stars in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, a pair of low-metallicity nearby galaxies, as traced by their spatially resolved spectral energy distributions. ... We build maps of dust, stellar luminosity, and mass of both Magellanic Clouds, and analyze the spatial distribution of dust/stellar luminosity and mass ratios. ... ADS ] .

... Building Galaxies in the Early Universe . ... A recent analysis of the HUDF focused on the smallest, faintest and most compact galaxies imaged. ... An image of this field with the Spitzer Space Telescope shows a lack of infrared emission that would be expected from old stars, indicating that these small galaxies are very young, possibly only a few million years old. ...
