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

The 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.

NGC 6340: an old S0 galaxy with a young polar disc. Clues from morphology, internal kinematics and stellar populations

, 2009
Lenticular galaxies are believed to form by a combination of environmental effects and secular evolution. We study the nearby disc-dominated S0 galaxy NGC 6340 photometrically and spectroscopically to understand the mechanisms of S0 formation and ...

Mid- to Far-IR Emission and Star Formation in Early-Type Galaxies [PDF]

, 2008
Many early-type galaxies have been detected at wavelengths of 24 to 160 micron, but the emission is usually dominated by heating from an AGN or from the evolved stellar population.

Surface Photometry of NGC 3 Lenticular Galaxy

Iraqi Journal of Science, 2019
     Lenticular galaxy NGC3 has been chosen to study the surface photometry using griz filter. The data where obtained from the seventh Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release seven (DR7), and main the image reduction was done by the pipeline of SDSS.

Evidence for Mass-dependent Evolution of Transitional Dwarf Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster

The Astrophysical Journal
The presence of transitional dwarf galaxies in cluster environments supports the hypothesis that infalling star-forming galaxies are transformed into quiescent early-type dwarf galaxies (ETdGs) through environmental effects.

The Bulge-Halo Connection in Galaxies: A Physical Interpretation of the Vcirc-sigma_0 Relation

, 2006
We explore the dependence of the ratio of a galaxy's circular velocity, Vcirc, to its central velocity dispersion, sigma_0, on morphology, or equivalently total light concentration. Such a dependence is expected if light traces the mass.

Inner structure of the lenticular galaxy NGC 3384 [PDF]

Monthly 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 ...

Abundant Molecular Gas in the Central Region of Lenticular Galaxy PGC 39535

The Astrophysical Journal
Lenticular galaxies (S0s) in the local Universe are generally absent of recent star formation and lack molecular gas. In this paper, we investigate one massive ( M _* ∼ 5 × 10 ^10 M _⊙ ) star-forming S0, PGC 39535, with the Northern Extended Millimeter ...

Morphology and kinematics of the ionised gas in early-type galaxies

, 2005
We present results of our ongoing study of the morphology and kinematics of the ionised gas in 48 representative nearby elliptical and lenticular galaxies using the SAURON integral-field spectrograph on the 4.2m William Herschel Telescope.

The colour-magnitude relation of Elliptical and Lenticular galaxies in the ESO Distant Cluster Survey [PDF]

, 2010
We study the colour-magnitude relation (CMR) for a sample of 172 morphologically-classified E/S0 cluster galaxies from the ESO Distant Cluster Survey (EDisCS) at 0 ...
