Disk Growth in Bulge-Dominated Galaxies: Molecular Gas and Morphological Evolution

open access: yes, 2007
Substantial numbers of morphologically regular early-type (elliptical and lenticular) galaxies contain molecular gas, and the quantities of gas are probably sufficient to explain recent estimates of the current level of star formation activity.

Misaligned Gas Acquisition as a Formation Pathway of S0 Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We analyze a sample of 753 S0 galaxies from the MPL-10 of Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory survey and investigate the gas–star kinematic misalignment and merger remnant fraction in galaxies with different morphological types.

A Photometric Study of Giant Ellipticals and Their Stellar Halos With VST

open access: yesGalaxies, 2017
Observations of diffuse starlight in the outskirts of galaxies are thought to be a fundamental source of constraints on the cosmological context of galaxy assembly in the Λ CDM model.

Formation of a Massive Lenticular Galaxy Under the Tidal Interaction with a Group of Dwarf Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Based on the atomic-hydrogen (H i ) observations using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope, we present a detailed study of the gas-rich massive S0 galaxy NGC 1023 in a nearby galaxy group.

A Chandra Observation of the Nearby Lenticular Galaxy NGC 5102: Where are the X-ray Binaries?

open access: yes, 2005
We present results from a 34 ks Chandra/ACIS-S observation of the nearby (d=3.1 Mpc) lenticular galaxy NGC 5102, previously shown to have an unusually low X-ray luminosity.

Inner structure of the lenticular galaxy NGC 3384 [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1984
La region interne de la galaxie lenticulaire NGC 3384 presente une structure complexe. La haute resolution (FWHM≃0,7 arc sec) obtenue pour cette etude photometrique permet de montrer que la faible structure allongee croisant le bulbe perpendiculairement a l'axe principal de la galaxie n'est probablement pas une barre, mais un petit anneau polaire de ...

Abundant Molecular Gas in the Central Region of Lenticular Galaxy PGC 39535

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Lenticular galaxies (S0s) in the local Universe are generally absent of recent star formation and lack molecular gas. In this paper, we investigate one massive ( M _* ∼ 5 × 10 ^10 M _⊙ ) star-forming S0, PGC 39535, with the Northern Extended Millimeter ...

The Extended Baryonic Halo of NGC 3923

open access: yesGalaxies, 2017
Galaxy halos and their globular cluster systems build up over time by the accretion of small satellites. We can learn about this process in detail by observing systems with ongoing accretion events and comparing the data with simulations.
