We investigate the relation between the asymptotic circular velocity, V_c, and the central stellar velocity dispersion, sigma_c, in galaxies. We consider a new sample of high surface brightness spiral galaxies (HSB), low surface brightness spiral galaxies (LSB), and elliptical galaxies with HI-based V_c measurements. We find that: 1) elliptical galaxies with HI measurements fit well within the relation; 2) a linear law can reproduce the data as well as a power law (used in previous works) even for galaxies with sigma_c < 70 km/s; 3) LSB galaxies, considered for the first time with this respect, seem to behave differently, showing either larger V_c values or smaller sigma_c values.

We present an updated investigation of the relation between large scale disk circular velocity, v_c, and bulge velocity dispersion, sigma_c. New bulge velocity dispersions are measured for a sample of 11 low surface brightness (LSB) and 7 high surfac
e brightness (HSB) spiral galaxies for which v_c is known from published optical or HI rotation curves. We find that, while LSB galaxies appear to define the upper envelope of the region occupied by HSB galaxies (having relatively larger v_c for any given sigma_c), the distinction between LSB and HSB galaxies in the v_c-sigma_c plane becomes less pronounced for sigma_c <= 80 km/s. We conclude that either the scatter of the v_c-sigma_c relation is a function of v_c (and hence galaxy mass) or that the character of the v_c-sigma_c relation changes at v_c ~ 80 km/s. Some inplications of our findings are discussed.
In order to investigate the correlation between the circular velocity Vc and the central velocity dispersion of the spheroidal component sigma_c, we analyzed these quantities for a sample of 40 high surface brightness disc galaxies (hereafter HSB), 8
giant low surface brightness spiral galaxies (hereafter LSB), and 24 elliptical galaxies characterized by flat rotation curves. We find that the Vc-sigma_c relation is descri ed by a linear law out to velocity dispersions as low as sigma_c~50km/s, while in previous works a power law was adopted for galaxies with sigma_c>80k/ms. Elliptical galaxies with Vc based on dynamical models or directly derived from the HI rotation curves follow the same relation as the HSB galaxies in the Vc-sigma_c plane. On the contrary, the LSB galaxies follow a different relation, since most of them show either higher Vc (or lower sigma_c) with respect to the HSB galaxies. This argues against the relevance of baryon collapse in the radial density profile of the dark matter haloes of LSB galaxies. (abridged)
We analyzed a sample of high and low surface brightness (HSB and LSB) disc galaxies and elliptical galaxies to investigate the correlation between the circular velocity (Vc) and the central velocity dispersion (sigma). We better defined the previous
Vc-sigma correlation for HSB and elliptical galaxies, especially at the lower end of the sigma values. Elliptical galaxies with Vc based on dynamical models or directly derived from the HI rotation curves follow the same relation as the HSB galaxies in the V-sigma plane. On the contrary, the LSB galaxies follow a different relation, since most of them show either higher Vc (or lower sigma) with respect to the HSB galaxies. This argues against the relevance of baryon collapse in the radial density profile of the dark matter haloes of LSB galaxies. Moreover, if the Vc-sigma relation is equivalent to one between the mass of the dark matter halo and that of the supermassive black hole, these results suggest that the LSB galaxies host a supermassive black hole with a smaller mass compared to HSB galaxies of equal dark matter halo. On the other hand, if the fundamental correlation of SMBH mass is with the halo Vc, then LSBs should have larger black hole masses for given bulge sigma.
We describe Spitzer images of a sample of dwarf and low surface brightness galaxies, using the high sensitivity and spatial resolution to explore the morphologies of dust in these galaxies. For the starbursting dwarf UGC 10445, we present a complete
infrared spectral energy distribution and modeling of its individual dust components. We find that its diffuse cold (T~19K) dust component extends beyond its near-infrared disk and speculate that the most plausible source of heating is ultraviolet photons from starforming complexes. We find that the mass of T~19K dust in UGC 10445 is surprisingly large, with a lower limit of 3 x 10^6 M_solar. We explore the implications of having such a high dust content on the nature and evolution of the galaxy.
We present deep, pointed $^{12}$CO($J=2-1$) observations of three late-type LSB galaxies. The beam-size was small enough that we could probe different environments (HI maximum, HI mininum, star forming region) in these galaxies. No CO was found at an
y of the positions observed. We argue that the implied lack of molecular gas is real and not caused by conversion factor effects. The virtual absence of a molecular phase may explain the very low star formation rates in these galaxies.
