Implications and Applications of Kinematic Galaxy Scaling Relations
Figure 7
SN Ia distances and the FM. (a) shows the residuals about the FM relation (FM) for galaxies with SN Ia distances. Blue and red symbols denote rotationally and pressure-supported systems, respectively. (b) shows the Hubble diagram for galaxies with SN Ia distances available in the NED 1-D database. The galaxies with all the necessary data to be placed on the FM are highlighted in red. There are numerous galaxies with existing SN Ia distances that could be added to the FM with reasonable observational effort. The most noticeable outliers from the FM are also outliers in the Hubble diagram.
