The Manifold of Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1983
The significant number of dimensions of the manifold is two. Notwithstanding the contamination of the second dimension by projection effects, there are arguments for an intrinsic variation.

Simulating galaxy formation with black hole driven thermal and kinetic feedback [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The inefficiency of star formation in massive elliptical galaxies is widely believed to be caused by the interactions of an active galactic nucleus (AGN) with the surrounding gas.

On the Formation of Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1975
Simple collapse and violent relaxation models produce sharply cut off envelopes with ϱ(r) ∝ r–4, whereas actual elliptical galaxies have more extended envelopes approximately given by ϱ(r) ∝ r–3 as implied by Hubble's Law. Numerical models are presented, showing that when cosmological infall effects are included, galaxies are produced with more ...

A Preferred Orientation Angle for Bipolar Planetary Nebulae

open access: yesGalaxies, 2020
We present preliminary results from measuring Galactic orientation angles of 766 elliptical and bipolar Planetary Nebulae (PNe) in the Hong Kong/Australian Astronomical Observatory/Strasbourg Observatory H-alpha Planetary Nebula research platform and ...

Elliptical Galaxies with Shells [PDF]

open access: yesInternational 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).

Dearth of dark matter or massive dark halo? Mass-shape-anisotropy degeneracies revealed by nmagic dynamical models of the elliptical galaxy NGC 3379 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Recent results from the Planetary Nebula Spectrograph (PNS) survey have revealed a rapidly falling velocity dispersion profile in the nearby elliptical galaxy NGC 3379, casting doubts on whether this intermediate-luminosity galaxy has the kind of dark ...

The Planetary Nebula Spectrograph elliptical galaxy survey: the dark matter in NGC 4494 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We present new Planetary Nebula Spectrograph observations of the ordinary elliptical galaxy NGC 4494, resulting in positions and velocities of 255 planetary nebulae out to seven effective radii (25 kpc).
