Comparing distances obtained from galaxy scaling-relations with the help of group catalogues

Galaxy scaling relations, such as the Tully-Fisher relation and the fundamental plane can be used to derive redshift-independent distances. These two scaling-relations are valid for mutually exclusive morphological galaxy types, solid group catalogues are required to compare them within galaxy clusters hosting multiple galaxies. With our investigation, we aim to better understand systematic effects between the scaling rations that may cause potential biases in peculiar motion studies.
