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

The 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.

SDSS. IV. MaNGA: The Impact of the Acquisition of Gas with Opposite Angular Momentum on the Evolution of Galaxies

The Astronomical Journal
A gaseous counterrotating galaxy is a galaxy containing a gas component with opposite angular momentum to the main stellar disk. The counterrotating gas provides direct evidence for the accretion of external material, a key aspect in hierarchical galaxy ...

Radio Jet Feedback on the Inner Disk of Virgo Spiral Galaxy Messier 58

The Astrophysical Journal
Spitzer spectral maps reveal a disk of highly luminous, warm (>150 K) H _2 in the center of the massive spiral galaxy Messier 58, which hosts a radio-loud active galactic nucleus (AGN). The inner 2.6 kpc of the galaxy appears to be overrun by shocks from

SAUNAS. II. Discovery of Cross-shaped X-Ray Emission and a Rotating Circumnuclear Disk in the Supermassive S0 Galaxy NGC 5084

The Astrophysical Journal
Combining Chandra, Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, EVLA, and Hubble Space Telescope archival data and newly acquired data from the Apache Point Observatory/Dual Imaging Spectrograph, we detect a double-lobed 17 kpc X-ray emission with ...

The Cool ISM in S0 Galaxies. I. A Survey of Molecular Gas

, 2002
Lenticular galaxies remain remarkably mysterious as a class. Observations to date have not led to any broad consensus about their origins, properties and evolution, though they are often thought to have formed in one big burst of star formation early in ...

Minor-merger-induced Star Formation Rejuvenation in an Elliptical Radio-loud Quasar Host, 3C 59

The Astrophysical Journal
We report a rare case where an elliptical radio-loud quasar host, 3C 59, rejuvenates star formation activity through minor mergers with its nearby satellite galaxies.

Modelling the photometric and morphological evolution of disc galaxies in the cluster environment

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Compelling observational evidence indicates that the disc population in galaxy clusters has undergone rapid evolution, transitioning from a dominance of blue spirals to red lenticular galaxies (S0s) over the past ∼7 Gyr.
