Bending waves in velocity space: A first look at the THINGS sample
Detection of bending waves is a highly challenging task even in nearby disc galaxies due to their sub-kpc bending amplitudes. However, simulations show that the harmonic bending of a Milky Way-like disc galaxy is associated with a harmonic fluctuation in the measured line-of-sight (los) velocities a...
