Disk scale length and central surface brightness for a sample of about 29955 bright disk galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey have been analysed. Cross correlation of the SDSS sample with the LEDA catalogue allowed us to investigate the variation of the scale lengths for different types of disk/spiral galaxies and present distributions and typical trends of scale lengths all the SDSS bands with linear relations that indicate the relation that connect scale lengths in one passband to another. We use the volume corrected results in the r-band and revisit the relation between these parameters and the galaxy morphology. The derived scale lengths presented here are representative for a typical galaxy mass of 10^10.8 solarmasses, and the RMS dispersion is larger for more massive galaxies. We analyse the scale-length-central disk brightness plane and further investigate the Freeman Law and confirm that it indeed defines an upper limit for disk central surface brightness in bright disks (r<17.0), and that disks in late type spirals (T > 6) have fainter central surface brightness. Our results are based on a sample of galaxies in the local universe (z< 0.3) that is two orders of magnitudes larger than any sample previously studied, and deliver statistically significant results that provide a comprehensive test bed for future theoretical studies and numerical simulations of galaxy formation and evolution.
We probe the angular scale of homogeneity in the local Universe using blue galaxies from the SDSS survey as a cosmological tracer. Through the scaled counts in spherical caps, $ mathcal{N}(<theta) $, and the fractal correlation dimension, $mathcal{D}
We build templates of rotation curves as a function of the $I-$band luminosity via the mass modeling (by the sum of a thin exponential disk and a cored halo profile) of suitably normalized, stacked data from wide samples of local spiral galaxies. We
I present a brief review of the stellar population properties of massive galaxies, focusing on early-type galaxies in particular, with emphasis on recent results from the ATLAS3D Survey. I discuss the occurrence of young stellar ages, cold gas, and o
We use a 380 h-1 pc resolution hydrodynamic AMR simulation of a cosmic filament to investigate the orientations of a sample of ~100 well-resolved galactic disks spanning two orders of magnitude in both stellar and halo mass. We find: (i) At z=0, ther
We use the scaled counts in spherical caps $mathcal{N}(<theta)$ and the fractal correlation dimension $ mathcal{D}_{2}(theta) $ procedures to search for a transition scale to homogeneity in the local universe as given by the ALFALFA catalogue (a samp
