... emission. A possible post-starburst population may affect size measurements more strongly; although a 0.5 Gyr old stellar population can make up  10% of the total stellar mass, it could account for up to ∼ 40% of the optical light. Nevertheless, this spectrum shows that this compact galaxy is domin ...

... that the observed velocity field of Mrk 297 is well reproduced on the basis of our model. As noted above, in our scheme, Mrk 297 is not a merger but an only interacting galaxy. Very recently, Sofue et al. (1990) detected 12 CO (J = 1 — 0) emission in Mrk 297 using the 45-m radio telescope of the Nob ...

Weak gravitational lensing



While the presence of any mass bends the path of light passing near it, this effect rarely produces the giant arcs and multiple images associated with strong gravitational lensing. Most lines of sight in the universe are thoroughly in the weak lensing regime, in which the deflection is impossible to detect in a single background source. However, even in these cases, the presence of the foreground mass can be detected, by way of a systematic alignment of background sources around the lensing mass. Weak gravitational lensing is thus an intrinsically statistical measurement, but it provides a way to measure the masses of astronomical objects without requiring assumptions about their composition or dynamical state.
