We discuss the role of the galactic disc in the interpretation of the circular velocities of spiral galaxies at large galactocentric radii. The fractional amount of mass in the disc can be shown to be an increasing function of the luminosity. As a re... Read More about The effect of the disc on the rotation curves of spiral galaxies..
