The SAURON project - XVI. On the sources of ionization for the gas in elliptical and lenticular galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 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 nebular emission. To constrain the likely sources of gas excitation, we resort to a variety of ancillary data, draw from complementary information on the gas kinematics, stellar ...

The Dynamical Distinction between Elliptical and Lenticular Galaxies in Distant Clusters: Further Evidence for the Recent Origin of S0 Galaxies [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2007 We examine resolved spectroscopic data obtained with the Keck II telescope for 44 spheroidal galaxies in the fields of two rich clusters, Cl0024+16 (z=0.40) and MS0451-03 (z=0.54), and contrast this with similar data for 23 galaxies within the redshift interval 0 ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 1982 The Faber-Jackson relation between absolute magnitude M/sub T//sup 0/ and central velocity dispersion sigma/sub upsilon/ is reexamined for a sample of 157 normal, noninteracting galaxies, 82 ellipticals (T = -5, -4), and 75 lenticulars (T = -3, -2, -1). The values of sigma/sub upsilon/ are weighted means from various sources reduced to a uniform system

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]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical SocietyABSTRACT 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 the chronological sequence of galaxy speciation.

Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2000 The Virgo Cluster of galaxies is a complex system composed of several subclusters or ““ clouds.II Our understanding of this structure is severely limited by the small number of member galaxies for which high-precision distance measurements are available.

Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1971 The available data on masses of ellipticals and lenticulars are summarized with emphasis on the uncertainties in the ratio R of mass to 10-O.6M, where M is the absolute magnitude. With correction for galactic absorption the result is R= 0. ;2147 'o (and, as a by-product, a mean mass-luminosity ratio of 38-+ based on the magnitude scale in the de ...
