The nature and origin of disky elliptical galaxies [PDF]
The observational trend that disky elliptical galaxies exhibit younger luminosity- weighted ages than boxy ellipticals is investigated. The presence of a possible young stellar disk embedded in these galaxies is explored by comparing kinematics derived ...

Near IR imaging of Centaurus group dwarf elliptical galaxies
Detailed studies of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group have revealed an amazing diversity in their star formation histories. Young and intermediate-age stellar populations are observed in some gas-poor dwarf ellipticals, like Fornax and Carina, where ...

Line-strength indices and velocity dispersions for 148 early-type galaxies in different environments [PDF]
We have derived high quality line-strength indices and velocity dispersions for a sample of 148 early-type galaxies in different environments. The wavelength region covered by the observations ($\lambda \simeq 4600$ to 6600 Å) includes the Lick/IDS ...

The star formation history of early-type galaxies in the fornax cluster [PDF]
We have measured central line strengths and line-strength gradients for a complete sample of early-type galaxies in the Fornax cluster, comprising 11 elliptical and 11 lenticular galaxies, more luminous than M(_B) = -17.

The impact of accurate distances to dwarf elliptical galaxies on cosmology
The Surface Brightness Fluctuation method has been shown to be a powerful distance indicator for dwarf elliptical galaxies to very low surface brightness levels.

Removing the Effect of Source Structure From Correlated VLBI Data
Abstract Recent studies suggest that in geodetic very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) the assumption of sources being point‐like results in a significant residual error introduced by the effect of source structure. Our aim is to remove the impact of source structure from geodetic VLBI data right after the correlation step. For this purpose, we have

The Extended Baryonic Tully–Fisher Relation for SDSS MaNGA Galaxies
The baryonic Tully–Fisher relation (BTFR), a relationship between the rotational velocity and baryonic mass in spiral galaxies, probes the relative content of baryonic and total mass in galaxies and thus provides a good test of dark matter content in ...

Can Solar Cyclic Variability Mimic Extreme Solar Particle (Miyake) Events in Radiocarbon?
Abstract Rapid, strong enhancements in Δ14 ${{\Delta }}^{14}$C in the Earth's atmosphere, known as Miyake events, rarely occurred over the past millennia, pointing to major radiation storms affecting Earth. They are produced by extreme solar particle events (ESPEs) and are separated by an order‐of‐magnitude gap in the strength from directly observed ...

UV Visibility of Moderate-Redshift Giant Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]
We show quantitatively whether giant elliptical galaxies would be visible at far UV wavelengths if they were placed at moderate redshift of 0.4-0.5. On the basis of simple cosmological tests, we conclude that giant elliptical galaxies can be detectable ...
