The Study of Nebular Emission on Nearby Spiral Galaxies in the IFU Era by Fernando Fabián Rosales-Ortega

“…Here I review some highlights of our current studies employing this technique: (1) the case study of NGC 628, the largest galaxy ever sampled with an IFU; (2) a statistical approach to the abundance gradients of spiral galaxies, which indicates a universal radial gradient for oxygen abundance; and (3) the discovery of a new scaling relation of HII regions in spiral galaxies, the local mass-metallicity relation of star-forming galaxies. …”

Analysis of ∼106 Spiral Galaxies from Four Telescopes Shows Large-Scale Patterns of Asymmetry in Galaxy Spin Directions by Lior Shamir

“…This study uses large datasets collected by four different robotic telescopes to profile the large-scale distribution of the spin directions of spiral galaxies. These datasets cover the Northern and Southern hemispheres, in addition to data acquired from space by the Hubble Space Telescope. …”

Modified Newtonian Dynamics: A Falsification of Cold Dark Matter by R. H. Sanders

“…This hypothesis, suggested by Milgrom, has been successful in explaining systematic properties of spiral and elliptical galaxies and predicting in detail the observed rotation curves of spiral galaxies with only one additional parameter—a critical acceleration which is on the order of the cosmologically interesting value of 𝑐𝐻𝑜. …”

Astronomical Signatures of Dark Matter by Paul Gorenstein, Wallace Tucker

“…They are very high velocities of individual galaxies within clusters of galaxies, higher than expected rotation rates of stars in the outer regions of galaxies, 21 cm line studies indicative of increasing mass to light ratios with radius in the halos of spiral galaxies, hot gaseous X-ray emitting halos around many elliptical galaxies, and clusters of galaxies requiring a much larger component of unseen mass for the hot gas to be bound. …”

Are Nuclear Star Clusters the Precursors of Massive Black Holes? by Nadine Neumayer, C. Jakob Walcher

“…We present new upper limits for black hole masses in extremely late type spiral galaxies. We confirm that this class of galaxies has black holes with masses less than 106M⊙, if any. …”

HCG 57: Evidence for Shock-heated Intergalactic Gas from X-Rays and Optical Emission Line Spectroscopy by Ewan O’Sullivan, P. N. Appleton, B. A. Joshi, Lauranne Lanz, Katherine Alatalo, Jan M. Vrtilek, Andreas Zezas, Laurence P. David

“…We present Chandra and XMM-Newton X-ray observations of the compact group HCG 57, and optical integral field spectroscopy of the interacting galaxy pair HCG 57A/D. These two spiral galaxies recently suffered an off-axis collision with HCG 57D passing through the disk of A. …”
