We present new low-resolution H I spectral line imaging, obtained with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array, of the star-forming Magellanic irregular galaxy UGCA 105. This nearby ( D = 3.39 ± 0.25 Mpc), low-mass ( 4.3 ± 0.5 × 10 8 M ☉ ) system harbors a large neutral gas disk (H I radius ~7.2 kpc at the = 10 20 cm –2 level) that is roughly twice as large as the stellar disk at the B -band R 25 isophote. We explore the neutral gas dynamics of this system, fitting tilted ring models in order to extract a well-sampled rotation curve. The rotation velocity rises in the inner disk, flattens at 72 ± 3 km s –1 , and remains flat to the last measured point of the disk (~7.5 kpc). The dynamical mass of UGCA 105 at this outermost point, (9 ± 2) × 10 9 M ☉ , is ~10 times as large as the luminous baryonic components (neutral atomic gas and stars). The proximity and favorable inclination (55°) of UGCA 105 make it a promising target for high-resolution studies of both star formation and rotational dynamics in a nearby low-mass galaxy.
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic
(which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments.
It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions.
The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager
like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
