TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a homogeneous sample of about 1100 optical and radio rotation curves and relative surface photometry to investigate the main mass structure properties of spirals, over a range of 6 magnitudes and out to 1.5 and 2 optical radii, respectively.

TL;DR: In this paper, the main driver of galaxy formation and evolution is not the merging sequence but are baryon processes, which tie together star formation in spheroidal galaxies and the growth of black holes at their centers.

TL;DR: In this article, a new method for extracting rotation curves from Hi data cubes is presented; this method takes into account the existence of a warp and minimises projection effects; the rotation curves obtained are tested by taking them as input to construct model data cubes that are compared to the observed ones.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the structure of dark matter halos by means of the kinematics of a very large sample of spiral galaxies of all luminosities, and they find that the Burkert profile proposed to describe the dark matter halo density distribution of dwarf galaxies also provides an excellent mass model for the dark halos around disk systems up to 100 times more massive.

TL;DR: In this paper, the universal rotation curve of disc galaxies and the corresponding mass distribution out to their virial radius were obtained by combining kinematical data of their inner regions with global observational properties.
