New Analysis of Dark Matter in Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]
MNRAS, 518, 2, 2845-2852 (2023), 2022 We investigate a correlation between the dark matter content of elliptical galaxies and their ellipticity that was initially reported in 2014. We use new determinations of dark matter and ellipticities that are posterior to that time. Our data set consists of 237 elliptical galaxies passing a strict set of criteria.

ELLIPTICAL GALAXY MASSES OUT TO FIVE EFFECTIVE RADII: THE REALM OF DARK MATTER [PDF]
, 2011 We estimate the masses of elliptical galaxies out to five effective radii using planetary nebulae and globular clusters as tracers. A sample of 15 elliptical galaxies with a broad variation in mass is compiled from the literature. A distribution function-

Resequencing the Hubble sequence and the quadratic (black hole mass)-(spheroid stellar mass) relation for elliptical galaxies [PDF]
MNRAS (2023) 522, 3588, 2023 One of the most protracted problems in astronomy has been understanding the evolution of galaxy morphology. Much discussion has surrounded how lenticular galaxies may form a bridging population between elliptical and spiral galaxies. However, with recourse to a galaxy's central black hole mass, accretion-built spiral galaxies have emerged as the ...

A CENSUS OF BARYONS AND DARK MATTER IN AN ISOLATED, MILKY WAY SIZED ELLIPTICAL GALAXY [PDF]
, 2010 We present a study of the dark and luminous matter in the isolated elliptical galaxy NGC 720, based on deep X-ray observations made with the Chandra and Suzaku observatories.

The dust morphology of the elliptical Galaxy M 86 with SPIRE [PDF]
, 2010 We present Herschel-SPIRE observations at 250-500 mu m of the giant elliptical galaxy M 86 and examine the distribution of the resolved cold dust emission and its relation with other galactic tracers.

The Gravitational Lens CFRS03.1077 [PDF]
, 2002 An exquisite gravitational arc with a radius of 2.1" has been discovered around the z = 0.938 field elliptical galaxy CFRS03.1077 during HST observations of Canada-France Redshift Survey (CFRS) fields.

The PN.S elliptical galaxy survey: A standard ΛCDM halo around NGC 4374? [PDF]
, 2010 As part of our current programme to test ACDM predictions for dark matter (DM) haloes using extended kinematical observations of early-type galaxies, we present a dynamical analysis of the bright elliptical galaxy NGC 4374 (M84) based on ∼450 planetary ...

Galaxy Light Concentration. I. Index stability and the connection with galaxy structure, dynamics, and supermassive black holes [PDF]
, 2001 We explore the stability of different galaxy light concentration indices as a function of the outermost observed galaxy radius. With a series of analytical light-profile models, we show mathematically how varying the radial extent to which one measures a

Double-nucleus elliptical MCG-01-12-005 in an X-ray emitting cluster of galaxies [PDF]
, 2015 The scenario of galaxy formation is believed to follow a structure that builds up from the bottom, with large galaxies being formed by several merging episodes of smaller ones.
