Near-infrared bulge-disc correlations of lenticular galaxies [PDF]

open access: bronzeMon.Not.Roy.Astron.Soc.394:1991B,2009, 2008
We consider the luminosity and environmental dependence of structural parameters of lenticular galaxies in the near-infrared K band. Using a two-dimensional galaxy image decomposition technique, we extract bulge and disk structural parameters for a sample of 36 lenticular galaxies observed by us in the K band.

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

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.

Made-to-measure galaxy models - II. Elliptical and lenticular galaxies [PDF]

open access: bronzeMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2012
We take a sample of 24 elliptical and lenticular galaxies previously analysed by the SAURON project using three integral dynamical models created with Schwarzschild method, and re-analyse them using the made-to-measure (M2M) method of dynamical modelling.

The intrinsic shape and dynamical structure of the bulges of lenticular galaxies

open access: goldJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2014
Several scenarios have been proposed to account for the formation and evolution of galactic bulges and to explain the variety of their observed properties. Both the intrinsic shape and dynamical structure of bulges depend on the mechanisms and timescales

Investigation of the Fundamental Plane Relationship For the Evolution of the Elliptical and Lenticular Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesمجلة التربية والعلم
The Fundamental Plane relates the effective radius and surface brightness of an early-type galaxy to its velocity dispersion. It is important in understanding galaxy formation and evolution processes. The present work aims to investigate this relation as

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

Thick disks of lenticular galaxies [PDF]

open access: bronzeAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2004
Thick disks are faint and extended stellar components found around several disk galaxies including our Milky Way. The Milky Way thick disk, the only one studied in detail, contains mostly old disk stars (~10 Gyr), so that thick disks are likely to trace the early stages of disk evolution.

Lenticular Galaxies and Their Environments [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2009
It is widely believed that lenticular (S0) galaxies were initially spirals from which the gas has been removed by interactions with hot cluster gas, or by ram-pressure stripping of cool gas from spirals that are orbiting within rich clusters of galaxies.

Elliptical (E) and ellicular (ES) galaxies in the M_bh-M_*,sph diagram, and a merger-driven explanation for the origin of ES galaxies, anti-truncated stellar discs in lenticular galaxies, and the Sersicification of E galaxy light profiles [PDF]

open access: yesMNRAS (2024) v.535, p.299
In a recent series of papers, supermassive black holes were used to discern pathways in galaxy evolution. By considering the black holes' coupling with their host galaxy's bulge/spheroid, the progression of mass within each component has shed light on the chronological sequence of galaxy speciation.

The Structure of Stellar Disks in Isolated Lenticular Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2020
We have obtained imaging data in two photometric bands, g and r, for a sample of 42 isolated lenticular galaxies with the Las Cumbres Observatory 1 m telescope network. We have analyzed the structure of their large-scale stellar disks.
