Properties of the Photometric Components of Lenticular Galaxies [PDF]

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.

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

open access: greenMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023
ABSTRACT 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 from the MeerKAT Fornax Survey, ALMA, and the Fornax 3D survey to study the ...

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.

Thick disks of lenticular galaxies - 3D-photometric thin/thick disk decomposition of eight edge-on S0 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.

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 ...

Inner structure of the lenticular galaxy NGC 3384 [PDF]

open access: bronzeMonthly 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 ...

Age and metallicity of the bulges in lenticular galaxies [PDF]

open access: bronzeProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007
AbstractPanoramic spectroscopy of the sample of 80 nearby lenticular galaxies is presented. The SSP-equivalent ages, [Z/H], and [Mg/Fe] are determined through the Lick indices Hβ, Mgb, and 〈Fe〉 separately for the nuclei and for the bulges. About a half of the sample contain chemically distinct nuclei, more metal-rich and younger than the bulges.
