Elliptical Galaxies with Shells [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1984 A considerable number of otherwise normal elliptical galaxies show sharp edged, low surface brightness concentric features, often at very large radii from the parent galaxy. Features like this are visible in some of the photographs presented by Arp (1966).

Fundamental Plane of Elliptical Galaxies in f(R) Gravity: The Role of Luminosity
Atoms, 2018 The global properties of elliptical galaxies are connected through the so-called fundamental plane of ellipticals, which is an empirical relation between their parameters: effective radius, central velocity dispersion and mean surface brightness within ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 Most stellar-dynamical determinations of the masses of nearby supermassive black holes (SMBHs) have been obtained with the orbit superposition technique under the assumption of axisymmetry.

Cold gas in elliptical galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2001 We explore the evolution of the cold gas (molecular and neutral hydrogen) of elliptical galaxies and merger remnants ordered into a time sequence on the basis of spectroscopic age estimates. We find that the fraction of cold gas in early merger remnants decreases significantly for ~1-2Gyr, but subsequent evolution toward evolved elliptical systems sees

The formation history of elliptical galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2006 We take advantage of the largest high-resolution simulation of cosmic structure growth ever carried out -- the Millennium Simulation of the concordance LambdaCDM cosmogony -- to study how the star formation histories, ages and metallicities of elliptical galaxies depend on environment and on stellar mass.

Abundance ratios in dwarf elliptical galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017 We determine abundance ratios of 37 dwarf ellipticals (dEs) in the nearby Virgo cluster. This sample is representative of the early-type population of galaxies in the absolute magnitude range -19.0 < Mr < -16.0. We analyze their absorption line-strength indices by means of index-index diagrams and scaling relations and use the stellar population ...
