Rotation of the large lenticular galaxy NGC 612* [PDF]
The radio galaxy NGC 612 (≡ PKS 0131 – 36) has been studied spectroscopically and the velocity field measured in emission lines of [O II], [O III] and Hα. A rotation curve has been determined to a radius of 40 kpc (H=50kms−1Mpc−1). The rotation curve of this SO galaxy is essentially flat, as is found for many late-type systems, with an amplitude of ...

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

Globular Clusters in Lenticular Galaxies: NGC 3115 [PDF]
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 ...

Lenticular Galaxy Formation: Possible Luminosity Dependence [PDF]
We investigate the correlation between the bulge effective radius (r_e) and disk scale length (r_d), in the near-infrared K band for lenticular galaxies in the field and in clusters. We find markedly different relations between the two parameters as a function of luminosity.

One Piece at a Time—Adding to the Puzzle of S0 Formation
Understanding the origin of galaxies remains a topic of debate in the current astronomy. In this work, we have focused on lenticular (S0) galaxies located in low-density environments, using their associated globular cluster (GC) systems as a tool ...

CDM, Feedback and the Hubble Sequence [PDF]
We have performed TreeSPH simulations of galaxy formation in a standard LCDM cosmology, including effects of star formation, energetic stellar feedback processes and a meta-galactic UV field, and obtain a mix of disk, lenticular and elliptical galaxies ...

KINEMATICS AND STELLAR POPULATIONS IN ISOLATED LENTICULAR GALAXIES
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

Bose‐Einstein Condensate Dark Matter Halos Confronted with Galactic Rotation Curves
We present a comparative confrontation of both the Bose‐Einstein Condensate (BEC) and the Navarro‐Frenk‐White (NFW) dark halo models with galactic rotation curves. We employ 6 High Surface Brightness (HSB), 6 Low Surface Brightness (LSB), and 7 dwarf galaxies with rotation curves falling into two classes.
