  1. The Peculiar Velocity of Messier~87 from Microarcsecond Geodetic VLBI Astrometry

    astro-ph.GA 2026-05 conditional novelty 7.0

    M87's radio core shows a proper motion of 10.19 μas yr⁻¹ at position angle 189.2°, implying a tangential velocity of 787 km s⁻¹ and a peculiar velocity of ~1037 km s⁻¹ at 65° to the line of sight.
