Five Early-Closure Outlier Audit for Galaxy Rotation Branches

Five galaxy rotation-branch outliers are analyzed in peak-normalized coordinates for early-closure behavior. The dataset, created by Chris Shreenan-Dyck and updated in June 2026, contains derived audit tables, source products, and validation outputs for the galaxies UGC09037, UGC05986, NGC4217, NGC6015/UGC10075, and NGC4100. It serves as an empirical supplement for reproducibility of the manuscript's classifications.

Use Cases

• Reproducing early-closure classifications based on the provided peak-normalized coordinate analysis.
• Validating outlier behavior in galaxy rotation branches based on the saved source products and derived tables.
• Comparing specific structural phenomena like radial-flow loading or sharp-sector boundaries across the five audited cases.
• Benchmarking rotation-curve analysis methods against the documented empirical audit results.

Strengths

• Includes a specific audit of five named galaxies (UGC09037, UGC05986, NGC4217, NGC6015/UGC10075, NGC4100).
• Provides reproducibility materials like source products, derived tables, and a validation script.
• Contains final per-galaxy summary tables with specific classifications for each case.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is not a new observational data release or a full modeling package, limiting its scope.
