Description
We propose a simple approach to homogeneously estimate kinematic
parameters of a broad variety of galaxies (elliptical, spirals,
irregulars or interacting systems). This methodology avoids the use of
any kinematical model or any assumption on internal dynamics. This
simple but novel approach allows us to determine: the frequency of
kinematic distortions, systemic velocity, kinematic center, and
kinematic position angles which are directly measured from the two
dimensional-distributions of radial velocities. We test our analysis
tools using the CALIFA Survey
