Double-nucleus elliptical MCG-01-12-005 in an X-ray emitting cluster of galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

ELLIPTICAL GALAXY MASSES OUT TO FIVE EFFECTIVE RADII: THE REALM OF DARK MATTER [PDF]

open access: yes, 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-

A CENSUS OF BARYONS AND DARK MATTER IN AN ISOLATED, MILKY WAY SIZED ELLIPTICAL GALAXY [PDF]

open access: yes, 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]

open access: yes, 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 PN.S elliptical galaxy survey: A standard ΛCDM halo around NGC 4374? [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

SDSS J150634.27+013331.6: the second compact elliptical galaxy in the NGC 5846 group★ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We report the discovery of the second compact elliptical (cE) galaxy SDSS J150634.27 + 013331.6 in the nearby NGC 5846 group by the Virtual Observatory (VO) workflow .

The Manifold of Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987
Global properties of elliptical galaxies, such as the luminosity, radius, projected velocity dispersion, projected luminosity density, etc., form a two-dimensional family. This “fundamental plane” of elliptical galaxies can be defined by the velocity dispersion and mean surface brightness, and its thickness is presently given by the measurement error ...
