Warped Galaxies : Recovery Of Pattern Speed, Velocity Field And The Warp Equation

Pattern speed is an important parameter of the density wave theory for spiral galaxies. In this thesis we have determined the pattern speed for warped galaxies (flat galaxies being a special case of this generalization) using the observable data of the surface brightness and line-of-sight velocity d...
