The SAURON project - VI. Line strength maps of 48 elliptical and lenticular galaxies [PDF]

open access: green, 2006
We present absorption line strength maps of 48 representative elliptical and lenticular galaxies obtained as part of a survey of nearby galaxies using our custom-built integral-field spectrograph, SAURON, operating on the William Herschel Telescope ...

The SAURON project--IV. The mass-to-light ratio, the virial mass estimator and the Fundamental Plane of elliptical and lenticular galaxies [PDF]

open access: green, 2006
We investigate the well-known correlations between the dynamical mass-to-light ratio M/L and other global observables of elliptical (E) and lenticul ar (S0) galaxies.

The H I content of elliptical and lenticular galaxies withrecent star formation [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2007
As a first step towards constraining the efficiency of the star formation episodes that lead to elliptical (E) and lenticular (S0) K+A galaxies, a survey for H i within a sample of E and S0 K+A galaxies and their likely progenitors (i.e.

Neutral hydrogen in nearby elliptical and lenticular galaxies: the continuing formation of early-type galaxies [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2006
We present the results of deep Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope observations of neutral hydrogen in 12 nearby elliptical and lenticular galaxi es. The selected objects come from a representative sample of nearby galaxies earlier studied at optical ...

The SAURON project - XVI. On the sources of ionization for the gas in elliptical and lenticular galaxies [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2010
Following our study on the incidence, morphology and kinematics of the ionised gas in early-type galaxies we now address the question of what is powering the observed ...

The SAURON project - X. The orbital anisotropy of elliptical and lenticular galaxies: revisiting the (V/ ,  ) diagram with integral-field stellar kinematics [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2007
We analyse the orbital distribution of elliptical (E) and lenticular (S0) galaxies using SAURON integral-field stellar kinematics within about one effective (half-light) radius.

The Dynamical Distinction between Elliptical and Lenticular Galaxies in Distant Clusters: Further Evidence for the Recent Origin of S0 Galaxies [PDF]

open access: green, 2007
We examine resolved spectroscopic data obtained with the Keck II telescope for 44 spheroidal galaxies in the fields of two rich clusters, Cl 0024+16 (z = 0.40) and MS 0451-03 (z = 0.54) and contrast this with similar data for 23 galaxies within the ...

Early-type galaxy speciation: elliptical (E) and ellicular (ES) galaxies in the Mbh–M*,sph diagram, and a merger-driven explanation for the origin of ES galaxies, antitruncated stellar discs in lenticular (S0) galaxies, and the Sérsicification of E galaxy light profiles [PDF]

open access: goldMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
In a recent series of papers, supermassive black holes were used to discern pathways in galaxy evolution. By considering the black holes’ coupling with their host galaxy’s bulge/spheroid, the progression of mass within each component has shed light on ...

Made-to-measure galaxy models - II. Elliptical and lenticular galaxies [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2012
We take a sample of 24 elliptical and lenticular galaxies previously analysed by the SAURON project using three integral dynamical models created with Schwarzschild method, and re-analyse them using the made-to-measure (M2M) method of dynamical modelling.
