Axisymmetric dynamical models for SAURON and OASIS observations of NGC 3377
Y. Copin, N. Cretton, E. Emsellem
We present a unique set of nested stellar kinematical maps of NGC 3377 obtained with the integral-field spectrographs OASIS and SAURON. We then construct general axisymmetric dynam…
Is there a dichotomy in the Dark Matter as well as in the Baryonic Matter properties of ellipticals?
N. R. Napolitano, M. Capaccioli, M. Arnaboldi +5
We have found a correlation betwen the M/L global gradients and the structural parameters of the luminous components of a sample of 19 early-type galaxies. Such a correlation suppo…
Orbital structure of triaxial galaxies
Glenn van de Ven, Ellen Verolme, Michele Cappellari +1
We have developed a method to construct realistic triaxial dynamical models for elliptical galaxies, allowing us to derive best-fitting parameters, such as the mass-to-light ratio…
The formation of cluster elliptical galaxies as revealed by extensive star formation
J. A. Stevens, R. J. Ivison, J. S. Dunlop +6
The most massive galaxies in the present-day Universe are found to lie in the centres of rich clusters. They have old, coeval stellar populations suggesting that the bulk of their…
