The high‐mass end of the Tully–Fisher relation

We study the location of massive disc galaxies on the Tully–Fisher (TF) relation. Using a combination of K‐band photometry and high‐quality rotation curves, we show that in traditional formulations of the TF relation (using the width of the global H i profile or the maximum rotation velocity), galax...
