Structural properties of disk galaxies I. The intrinsic ellipticity of bulges
J. Mendez-Abreu, J. A. L. Aguerri, E. M. Corsini +1
(Abridged) A variety of formation scenarios was proposed to explain the diversity of properties observed in bulges. Studying their intrinsic shape can help in constraining the domi…
Spatially resolved spectroscopy of Coma cluster early-type galaxies IV. Completing the dataset
E. M. Corsini, G. Wegner, R. P. Saglia +3
The long-slit spectra obtained along the minor axis, offset major axis and diagonal axis are presented for 12 E and S0 galaxies of the Coma cluster drawn from a magnitude-limited s…
Bulge properties and dark matter content of early-type barred galaxies
E. M. Corsini
The dynamics of a barred galaxy depends on the pattern speed of its bar. The only direct method for measuring the pattern speed of a bar is the Tremaine-Weinberg technique. This me…
Upper limits on the mass of supermassive black holes from STIS archival data
A. Beifiori, E. M. Corsini, E. Dalla Bonta' +4
The growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) appears to be closely linked with the formation of spheroids. There is a pressing need to acquire better statistics on SMBH masses, s…
Dynamical modelling of luminous and dark matter in 17 Coma early-type galaxies
J. Thomas, R. P. Saglia, R. Bender +5
Dynamical models for 17 Coma early-type galaxies are presented. The galaxy sample consists of flattened, rotating as well as non-rotating early-types including cD and S0 galaxies w…
The Black Hole Mass of Abell 1836-BCG and Abell 3565-BCG
E. Dalla Bonta', L. Ferrarese, E. M. Corsini +3
Two brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs), namely Abell 1836-BCG and Abell 3565-BCG, were observed with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) and the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrogra…
