Properties of the Photometric Components of Lenticular Galaxies

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, 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.

S-PLUS: LEnticular Galaxies in Stripe 82 (LEGS82) [PDF]

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
This work is a Brazilian-Indian collaboration. It aims at investigating the structural properties of Lenticular galaxies in the Stripe 82 using a combination of S-PLUS (Southern Photometric Local Universe Survey) and SDSS data.

Creating lenticular galaxies with mergers [PDF]

open access: bronzeProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2016
AbstractLenticular galaxies (S0s) represent the majority of early-type galaxies in the local Universe, but their formation channels are still poorly understood. While galaxy mergers are obvious pathways to suppress star formation and increase bulge sizes, the marked parallelism between spiral and lenticular galaxies (e.g.

Evidence for a Diagenetic Origin of Vera Rubin Ridge, Gale Crater, Mars: Summary and Synthesis of Curiosity's Exploration Campaign. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Geophys Res Planets, 2020
Abstract This paper provides an overview of the Curiosity rover's exploration at Vera Rubin ridge (VRR) and summarizes the science results. VRR is a distinct geomorphic feature on lower Aeolis Mons (informally known as Mount Sharp) that was identified in orbital data based on its distinct texture, topographic expression, and association with a hematite

Isolated lenticular galaxies: properties and evolution [PDF]

open access: green, 2014
This work is dedicated to investigation of galaxies that do not fit into a common scenario of galaxy formation - isolated lenticular galaxies. We have studied stellar populations and ionized gas content of a sample of 22 lenticular galaxies (among those 4 targets have appeared to be of erroneous morphological classification) by undertaking deep long ...

S-PLUS: LEnticular Galaxies in Stripe 82 [PDF]

open access: green, 2021
This work is a Brazilian-Indian collaboration. It aims at investigating the structuralproperties of Lenticular galaxies in the Stripe 82 using a combination of S-PLUS (Southern Photometric Local Universe Survey) and SDSS data. S-PLUS is a noveloptical multi-wavelength survey which will cover nearly 8000 square degrees of the Southern hemisphere in the ...

Kinematics And Stellar Population In Isolated Lenticular Galaxies [PDF]

open access: greenThe Astronomical Journal, 2015
By combining new long-slit spectral data obtained with the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) for 9 galaxies with previously published our observations for additional 12 galaxies we study the stellar and gaseous kinematics as well as radially resolved stellar population properties and ionized gas metallicity and excitation for a sample of isolated

Properties of stellar populations in isolated lenticular galaxies [PDF]

open access: greenAstrophysical Bulletin, 2014
In this paper we present the results of long-slit spectral observations for a sample of isolated lenticular galaxies, made with the SCORPIO and SCORPIO-2 spectrographs of the 6-meter BTA telescope of the SAO RAS. By applying full spectral fitting technique using the stellar population evolutionary synthesis models, we have measured the radial profiles ...

Globular Clusters in Lenticular Galaxies: NGC 3115 [PDF]

open access: bronzeSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1988
We present a progress report for the ongoing study of the globular cluster (GC) system around the edge-on lenticular galaxy NGC 3115. This object is one of the best targets for this kind of investigation, due to its proximity (~ 10 Mpc) and favourable inclination (for a deep photometric study and a review of the properties of NGC 3115, see Capaccioli ...
