[4] The galaxy is seen nearly edge-on, with inclination 86°, and features a warped disk and large quantities of HI gas extending along the disk, probably accumulated after multiple accretions of smaller galaxies.

[5] Gottesman et al. (2002) using the same method adopted as distance the 30 Mpc and calculated the mass of NGC 5084 to be 1.7 x 1012 M☉.

[7] Koribalski et al. (2004) measured the rotational speed of NGC 5084 to be 334 km/s and calculated its mass to be 1.3 × 1012 and its radius was estimated at 50 kpc (163 Kly).

[8] Carrignan et al. (1997) measured the velocity differences and projected separations of nine galaxies they identified as satellites of NGC 5084 and using different equations they estimated the mass of NGC 5084 to be between 6 x 1012 M☉ and 1 x 1013 M☉, which was at that time the highest mass ever derived for a disk galaxy.

The galaxy group is compact, showing little redshift dispersion.
