Observational evidence of fractality in the large-scale distribution of galaxies
T. Canavesi, T. E. Tapia
Using a sample of 133 991 galaxies distributed in the sky region and , extracted from the SDSS NASA/AMES Value Added Galaxy Cat…
Formation of S0 galaxies through mergers. Morphological properties: tidal relics, lenses, ovals, and other inner components
M. C. Eliche-Moral, C. Rodriguez-Perez, A. Borlaff +2
Major mergers are popularly considered too destructive to produce the relaxed regular structures and the morphological inner components (ICs) usually observed in lenticular (S0) ga…
The intrinsic shape of bulges in the CALIFA survey
L. Costantin, J. Méndez-Abreu, E. M. Corsini +5
The intrinsic shape of galactic bulges in nearby galaxies provides crucial information to separate bulge types. We intended to derive accurate constraints to the intrinsic shape of…
Formation of S0 galaxies through mergers. Evolution in the Tully-Fisher relation since
Trinidad Tapia, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Héctor Aceves +3
(Abridged version) We explore whether a scenario that combines an origin by mergers at 1.8-1.5 with a subsequent passive evolution of the resulting S0 remnants since $z \sim…
Creating lenticular galaxies with major mergers
Miguel Querejeta, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Trinidad Tapia +8
Lenticular galaxies (S0s) represent the majority of early-type galaxies in the local Universe, but their formation channels are still poorly understood. While galaxy mergers are ob…
Creating S0s with major mergers: a 3D view
Miguel Querejeta, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Trinidad Tapia +8
A number of simulators have argued that major mergers can sometimes preserve discs (e.g. Springel & Hernquist 2005), but the possibility that they could explain the emergence of le…
Formation of S0 galaxies through mergers: Explaining angular momentum and concentration change from spirals to S0s
Miguel Querejeta, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Trinidad Tapia +6
The CALIFA team has recently found that the stellar angular momentum and concentration of late-type spiral galaxies are incompatible with those of lenticular galaxies (S0s), conclu…
Constraints on the evolutionary mechanisms of massive galaxies since from their velocity dispersions
L. Peralta de Arriba, M. Balcells, I. Trujillo +9
Several authors have reported that the dynamical masses of massive compact galaxies (, ), computed a…
Formation of S0 galaxies through mergers. Bulge-disc structural coupling resulting from major mergers
M. Querejeta, M. C. Eliche-Moral, T. Tapia +4
Observations reveal a strong structural coupling between bulge and disc in S0 galaxies, which seems difficult to explain if they have formed from supposedly catastrophic events suc…
Formation of S0 galaxies through mergers. V. Antitruncated stellar discs resulting from major mergers
Alejandro Borlaff, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Cristina Rodríguez-Pérez +6
Lenticular galaxies (S0s) are more likely to host antitruncated (Type-III) stellar discs than galaxies of later Hubble types. Major mergers are popularly considered too violent mec…
Evolution induced by dry minor mergers onto fast-rotator S0 galaxies
Trinidad Tapia, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Miguel Querejeta +9
We analysed collisionless N-body simulations of intermediate and minor dry mergers onto S0s to test whether these mergers can generate S0 galaxies with kinematics intermediate betw…
