Structural and dynamical modeling of WINGS clusters [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
The orbital shapes of galaxies of different classes are a probe of their formation and evolution. The Bayesian MAMPOSSt mass-orbit modeling algorithm is used to jointly fit the distribution of elliptical, spiral-irregular, and lenticular galaxies in projected phase space, on three pseudo-clusters (built by stacking the clusters after re-normalizing ...

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 ...

Properties of the Photometric Components of Lenticular Galaxies

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
After almost one century since their definition, the origin of lenticular galaxies is still a matter of debate. Several formation processes have been proposed in order to explain the wide variety of their observational properties. These properties could indicate that the class of lenticulars is a family formed by galaxies with different formations and ...

Implications and Applications of Kinematic Galaxy Scaling Relations

open access: yesInternational Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Galaxy scaling relations, which describe a connection between ostensibly unrelated physical characteristics, testify to an underlying order in galaxy formation that requires understanding. I review the development of a scaling relation that (1) unites the well‐known fundamental plane (FP) relation of giant elliptical galaxies and Tully‐Fisher (TF ...

The present-day galaxy population in spiral galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Although there are many more stellar population studies of elliptical and lenticular galaxies, studies of spiral galaxies are catching up, due to higher signal to noise data on one hand, and better analysis methods on the other.

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

Chromodynamical analysis of lenticular galaxies using globular clusters and planetary nebulae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Recovering the origins of lenticular galaxies can shed light on the understanding of galaxy formation and evolution, since they present properties that can be found in both elliptical and spiral galaxies.

Extended stellar kinematics of elliptical galaxies in the Fornax cluster?;?? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
. We present extended stellar kinematics for a sample of elliptical galaxies in the Fornax cluster. Out of the 13 galaxies presented here, ve (FCC 119, FCC 136, NGC 1373, NGC 1428, FCC 335) have no pre-viously published kinematical data.
