M(total) = V2rot R/G
|
|
|
|
| |
Recall
M/L = constant (at least within class and is
|
|
|
more
true across classes for H-band)
|
|
|
| |
L ~ V2rot R/G
|
|
|
|
| |
Also, surface brightness, μ, L/R2 ~
constant
|
|
|
|
|
(Freemans
Law, μ(r) = μ0exp(-r/r0))
|
|
| |
Spiral central surface density = 21.65 B-mag arcsec-2
|
|
|
|
| |
Together these give L ~ V4, or in terms of Absolute
|
|
|
|
|
magnitude,
M = -10logV + constant
