We consider the relationship between the total HI mass in late-type galaxies and the kinematic properties of their disks. The mass $M_HI$ for galaxies with a wide variety of properties, from dwarf dIrr galaxies with active star formation to giant low-brightness galaxies, is shown to correlate with the product $V_c R_0$ ($V_c$ is the rotational velocity, and $R_0$ is the radial photometric disks scale length), which characterizes the specific angular momentum of the disk. This relationship, along with the anticorrelation between the relative mass of HI in a galaxy and $V_c$, can be explained in terms of the previously made assumption that the gas density in the disks of most galaxies is maintained at a level close to the threshold (marginal) stability of a gaseous layer to local gravitational perturbations. In this case, the regulation mechanism of the star formation rate associated with the growth of local gravitational instability in the gaseous layer must play a crucial role in the evolution of the gas content in the galactic disk.

We present molecular gas mass estimates for a sample of 13 local galaxies whose kinematic and star forming properties closely resemble those observed in $zapprox 1.5$ main-sequence galaxies. Plateau de Bure observations of the CO[1-0] emission line a
nd Herschel Space Observatory observations of the dust emission both suggest molecular gas mass fractions of ~20%. Moreover, dust emission modeling finds $T_{dust}<$30K, suggesting a cold dust distribution compared to their high infrared luminosity. The gas mass estimates argue that $zsim$0.1 DYNAMO galaxies not only share similar kinematic properties with high-z disks, but they are also similarly rich in molecular material. Pairing the gas mass fractions with existing kinematics reveals a linear relationship between $f_{gas}$ and $sigma$/$v_{c}$, consistent with predictions from stability theory of a self-gravitating disk. It thus follows that high gas velocity dispersions are a natural consequence of large gas fractions. We also find that the systems with lowest depletion times ($sim$0.5 Gyr) have the highest ratios of $sigma$/$v_{c}$ and more pronounced clumps, even at the same high molecular gas fraction.
We demonstrate in this paper that the velocity widths of the neutral gas in Damped Ly Alpha (DLA) systems are inconsistent with these systems originating in gas disks of galaxies similar to those seen in the local Universe. We examine the gas kinemat
ics of local galaxies using the high quality HI 21-cm data from the HI Nearby Galaxies Survey (THINGS) and make a comparison with the velocity profiles measured in the low-ionization metal lines observed in DLAs at high redshifts. The median velocity width of z=0 HI gas above the DLA column density limit of N=2x10^20 cm-2 is approximately 30 km/s, whereas the typical value in DLAs is a factor of two higher. We argue that the gas kinematics at higher redshifts are increasingly influenced by gas that is not participating in ordered rotation in cold disks, but is more likely associated with tidal gas related to galaxy interactions or processes such as superwinds and outflows. An analysis of the HI in the local interacting star-burst galaxy M82 shows that the velocity widths in this galaxy are indeed similar to what is seen in DLAs.
The kinematics of galactic rings were studied with a scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer mounted in the multi-mode focal reducer SCORPIO (Afanasiev & Moiseev 2005) at the SAO RAS 6-m telescope. The analysis of the ionized gas velocity fields allows u
s to understand the nature of the ring formation in several galaxies. The different types of the rings in the presented objects (resonanced, collisional, polar) were caused by the various sorts of interactions: merging, head-on collisions.
We analyze the physical properties and infall rates of the circum-galactic gas around disks obtained in multi-resolved, cosmological, AMR simulations. At intermediate and low redshifts, disks are embedded into an extended, hot, tenuous corona that co
ntributes largely in fueling the disk with non-enriched gas whereas the accretion of enriched gas from tidal streams occurs throughout episodic events. We derive an infall rate close to the disk of the same value as the one of the star formation rate in the disk and its temporal evolution as a function of galacto-centric radius nicely shows that the growth of galactic disks proceeds according to an inside-out formation scenario.
We present Atacama Large Millimeter Array CO(3$-$2) and HCO$^+$(4$-$3) observations covering the central $1rlap{.}5$$times$$1rlap{.}5$ region of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC). The unprecedented level of sensitivity ($sim$0.1 mJy beam$^{-1}$) and ang
ular resolution ($sim$$0rlap{.}09 approx 35$ AU) of these line observations enable us to search for gas-disk detections towards the known positions of submillimeter-detected dust disks in this region. We detect 23 disks in gas: 17 in CO(3$-$2), 17 in HCO$^+$(4$-$3), and 11 in both lines. Depending on where the sources are located in the ONC, we see the line detections in emission, in absorption against the warm background, or in both emission and absorption. We spectrally resolve the gas with $0.5$ km s$^{-1}$ channels, and find that the kinematics of most sources are consistent with Keplerian rotation. We measure the distribution of gas-disk sizes and find typical radii of $sim$50-200 AU. As such, gas disks in the ONC are compact in comparison with the gas disks seen in low-density star-forming regions. Gas sizes are universally larger than the dust sizes. However, the gas and dust sizes are not strongly correlated. We find a positive correlation between gas size and distance from the massive star $theta^1$ Ori C, indicating that disks in the ONC are influenced by photoionization. Finally, we use the observed kinematics of the detected gas lines to model Keplerian rotation and infer the masses of the central pre-main-sequence stars. Our dynamically-derived stellar masses are not consistent with the spectroscopically-derived masses, and we discuss possible reasons for this discrepancy.
