Phenomenological approach to the modelling of elliptical galaxies: The problem of the mass-to-light ratio [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2007 In this paper the problem of the phenomenological modelling of elliptical galaxies using various available observational data is presented. Recently, Tortora, Cardona and Piedipalumbo (2007) suggested a double power law expression for the global ...

Creating lenticular galaxies with major mergers [PDF]
, 2016 Lenticular 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.

Properties of stellar populations in isolated lenticular galaxies [PDF]
Astrophysical 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 ...

Stellar counter-rotation in lenticular galaxy NGC 448 [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016 The counter-rotation phenomenon in disc galaxies directly indicates a complex galaxy assembly history which is crucial for our understanding of galaxy physics. Here we present the complex data analysis for a lenticular galaxy NGC 448, which has been recently suspected to host a counter-rotating stellar component.

Low dark matter content of the nearby early-type galaxy NGC 821 [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2014 In this paper we analyze the kinematics and dynamics of the nearby early-type galaxy NGC 821 based on its globular clusters (GCs) and planetary nebulae (PNe).

Hot Gaseous Halos in Early Type Galaxies
Galaxies, 2017 The hot gas in early type galaxies (ETGs) plays a crucial role in their formation and evolution. As the hot gas is often extended to the outskirts beyond the optical size, the large scale structural features identified by Chandra (including cavities ...

Ages and abundances in large-scale stellar disks of nearby S0 galaxies [PDF]
, 2012 By undertaking deep long-slit spectroscopy with the focal reducer SCORPIO of the Russian 6m telescope, we studied stellar population properties and their variation with radius in 15 nearby S0 galaxies sampling a wide range of luminosities and ...

Lenticular galaxies in the process of evolution [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007 AbstractWe present images of a number of lenticular galaxies which appear to be undergoing evolutionary processes such as ram-pressure stripping or gravitational interactions, or possess features indicative of some evolutionary process in the recent past, such as fossil spiral arms, a polar ring-like structure, or a warped disk with box-peanut bulge ...
