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

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2006
We present absorption line strength maps of 48 representative elliptical and lenticular galaxies obtained as part of the SAURON survey of nearby galaxies. Using high-quality spectra, spatially binned to a constant signal-to-noise, we measure four key age, metallicity and abundance ratio sensitive indices from the Lick/IDS system over a two-dimensional ...

The SAURON project - X. The orbital anisotropy of elliptical and lenticular galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 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. We construct the anisotropy diagram, which relates the ratio of the ordered and random motion in a galaxy (V/sigma) to its observed ellipticity (epsilon), for the 48 E/S0 ...

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

open access: yesThe 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 H I content of elliptical and lenticular galaxies withrecent star formation [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2007
As a first step toward constraining the efficiency of the star formation episodes that lead to elliptical (E) and lenticular (S0) K+A galaxies, a survey for HI within a sample of E and S0 K+A galaxies and their likely progenitors (i.e., actively star forming E and S0 galaxies) has been conducted with the NRAO Green Bank Telescope (GBT).

The central velocity dispersion in elliptical and lenticular galaxies as an extragalactic distance indicator

open access: yesThe 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

Investigating the Correlations between Physical Parameters of Elliptical and Lenticular Galaxies

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Science
This study aims to investigate the features of stellar-gaseous kinematics and dynamics mass using scaling coefficient relationships (such as the Faber–Jackson relation (FJR)) of two samples of elliptical and lenticular galaxies. These two samples of 80 ellipticals and 97 lenticulars were selected from previous literature works.
