NGC 1436: the making of a lenticular galaxy in the Fornax cluster [PDF]

open access: greenMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023
We study the evolutionary path of the Fornax cluster galaxy NGC 1436, which is known to be currently transitioning from a spiral into a lenticular morphology. This galaxy hosts an inner star-forming disc and an outer quiescent disc, and we analyse data

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.

PGC 44685: A Dwarf Star-forming Lenticular Galaxy with a Wolf–Rayet Population

open access: goldThe Astrophysical Journal
Lenticular galaxies (S0s) are formed mainly from the gas stripping of spirals in the cluster. But how S0s form and evolve in the field is still in need of being resolved.

Stellar counter-rotation in lenticular galaxy NGC 448 [PDF]

open access: bronzeMonthly 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.

Spectroscopic Study of Globular and Fuzzy Clusters in Lenticular Galaxy NGC 1023

open access: goldThe Astrophysical Journal
We here report the results from spectroscopic observations of a sample of 26 globular cluster (GC) and 21 faint fuzzy (FF) candidates in the lenticular galaxy NGC 1023 using the 10.4 m Gran Telescopio Canarias.

Bar fraction in lenticular galaxies: dependence on luminosity and environment [PDF]

open access: bronzeMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2010
We present a study of bars in lenticular galaxies based on a sample of 371 galaxies from the SDSS-DR 7 and 2MASS in optical and near-infrared bands, respectively.

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

open access: bronze, 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.

Asymmetric Star Formation Triggered by Gas Inflow in a Barred Lenticular Galaxy PGC 34107 [PDF]

open access: goldAstrophysical Journal, 2022
Comparing the inactive and gas-poor normal lenticular galaxies (S0s) in the local universe, we study a barred star-forming S0 galaxy, PGC 34107, which has been observed by the Centro Astronómico Hispano Alemán 3.5 m telescope and the Northern Extended ...

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.

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.
