Restoration of the Tully–Fisher Relation by Statistical Rectification

Restoration of the Tully–Fisher Relation by Statistical Rectification

I employ the Lucy rectification algorithm to recover the inclination-corrected distribution of local disk galaxies in the plane of absolute magnitude ( M _i ) and H i velocity width ( W _20 ). By considering the inclination angle as a random variable with a known probability distribution, the novel...
