The Stellar Kinematics of Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987
The kinematic properties of elliptical galaxies are summarized. New developments are discussed in four areas: (i) the Faber-Jackson relation and the role of second parameters (ii) the luminosity-rotation relation (iii) the figures of elliptical galaxies and (iv) the mass-to-light ratio as a function of radius.

Kinematical data on early-type galaxies. I. [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics Supplement Series, 1997
We present new kinematical data for a sample of 38 early-type galaxies. Rotation curves and velocity-dispersion profiles are determined for 32 objects, while the central velocity dispersions are given for the whole sample. This is our second paper in a series devoted to the presentation of kinematical data on elliptical and S0 galaxies, derived from ...

KINEMATICS OF M51-TYPE INTERACTING GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT We present a kinematic catalog for 21 M51-type galaxies. It consists of radial velocity distributions observed with long-slit spectroscopy along different position angles, for both the main and satellite components. We detect deviations from circular motion in most of the main galaxies of each pair, due to the gravitational ...

NUCLEAR RINGS IN GALAXIES—A KINEMATIC PERSPECTIVE [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2011
We combine DensePak integral field unit and TAURUS Fabry-Perot observations of 13 nuclear rings to show an interconnection between the kinematic properties of the rings and their resonant origin. The nuclear rings have regular and symmetric kinematics, and lack strong non-circular motions.

THE SAMI GALAXY SURVEY: GALAXY INTERACTIONS AND KINEMATIC ANOMALIES IN ABELL 119 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT Galaxy mergers are important events that can determine the fate of a galaxy by changing its morphology, star formation activity and mass growth. Merger systems have commonly been identified from their disturbed morphologies, and we now can employ integral field spectroscopy to detect and analyze the impact of mergers on stellar ...

KINEMATICS OF STELLAR POPULATIONS IN POSTSTARBURST GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2015
Post-starburst galaxies host a population of early-type stars (A or F), but simultaneously lack indicators of ongoing star formation such as OII emission. Two distinct stellar populations have been identified in these systems: a young post-starburst population superimposed on an older host population.
