Observed maximum rotation velocity uncorrected for inclination effect. This quantity is calculated from 21-cm line widths at different levels and/or rotation curves (generally in H_alpha). ... These data are characterized by some secondary parameters: telescope, velocity resolution, level of the 21-cm line width and bibliographic reference. ... we start from a standard sample (a set of measurements giving a large and homogeneous sample). ... HyperLeda . ...

... We have mapped the 21-cm absorption in the nuclear region of the starburst galaxy NGC 1808 using the VLA AnB-hybrid array with a resolution of approx. 5.2" (= 275 pc). ... The velocity center of the absorption changes from about +120 km/s relative to the systemic velocity in the NW to -145 km/s in the SE, following the rotation pattern in the outer regions of the galaxy. ... The gravitational mass required to explain this fast rotation in the center of NGC 1808 is a few times 10^9 solar masses. ...

... 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. ...

... The first column shows the kinematical diagrams, where is the angle between the line of sight on the object and the vector of rotation about Z -axis, and V S is objects line-of-sight velocity relative to an observer at rest at the position of the Sun. The straight lines are regression fits, whose slopes yield the subsystem’s rotation rate. The second column shows the relations between metallicity and distance from the Galactic plane. ... privious figure | next figure . ...

Globular Clusters as Dynamical Probes of the Virgo Giant Elliptical M49 T.J. Bridges et al. Anglo-Australian Observatory, Australia We have obtained spectra and velocities for 144 globular clusters in the Virgo giant elliptical M49, and are using these data to study the kinematics, ages and abundances of the globular clusters, and the dynamics, dark matter content, and origin of M49. ... We con rm X-ray evidence for a dark matter halo in M49, nding a M/LB  70 at 50 kpc galactocentric radius. ...
