Q. How is the Tully-Fisher relation used to measure distances to galaxies?
Tully-Fisher relation is a correlation for spiral galaxies between their luminosity and how fast they are rotating. By comparing the intrinsic brightness with the apparent magnitude (what you actually observe — because the further the galaxy, the dimmer it “appears”), you can calculate its distance.
Q. What is the physical significance of the Tully-Fisher relation for spiral galaxies?
We find a new Tully–Fisher-like relation for spiral galaxies holding at different galactocentric radii. This radial Tully–Fisher relation allows us to investigate the distribution of matter in the optical regions of spiral galaxies.
Q. What is the Tully-Fisher relation used for?
Independent of the value of the Hubble Constant, the Tully-Fisher relation can be used to measure peculiar velocities, motions of galaxies that are deviations from the linear Hubble expansion. These motions are thought to be due to the gravitational influence of over- and under-densities of matter.
Q. What three properties of a galaxy are related by the Tully-Fisher relation?
The slope, intercept and scatter of the Tully-Fisher relation (TFR; Tully & Fisher 1977) are key parameters that any successful prescription for galaxy formation and evolution must reproduce.
Q. What did galaxies tend to look like in their younger age?
Most galaxies are compressed spheres, and the team noted that younger galaxies tend to be more flattened. This is also true of less common spiral galaxies like the Milky Way. The bulge near the center contains older stars, while the flattened arms are home to younger ones. Andromeda is a spiral galaxy.
Q. What is the oldest light that we can observe?
The oldest light in the universe is the cosmic microwave background. Roughly 380,000 years after the Big Bang, protons and electrons “recombined”1 into hydrogen atoms. Before this, any photons scattered off the free electrons in the plasma filling space, and the universe was essentially opaque to light.
