Mass To Light Ratios, Spiral Galaxies, Brightness, Luminosity

Scientific paper

The dependence of small aperture magnitudes on spiral galaxies' total luminosities and surface brightnesses is analyzed. These results, and simple dimensional arguments, are used to interpret Giraud's discovery of a tight Tully-Fisher type relation between B(-0.5) and rotation velocity in terms of a 'two-parameter family' description of spiral galaxies.
