Triaxial orbit based galaxy models with an application to the (apparent) decoupled core galaxy NGC 4365

R. C. E. van den Bosch, G. van de Ven, E. K. Verolme +2

We present a flexible and efficient method to construct triaxial dynamical models of galaxies with a central black hole, using Schwarzschild's orbital superposition approach. Our m…

Triaxial Orbit-based Models Of Elliptical Galaxies

Remco van den Bosch, Glenn van de Ven, Ellen Verolme +2

We have developed an orbit-based method for constructing triaxial models of elliptical galaxies, which fit their observed surface brightness and kinematics. We have tested the meth…

The dynamical distance and intrinsic structure of the globular cluster omega Centauri

G. van de Ven, R. C. E. van den Bosch, E. K. Verolme +1

We determine the dynamical distance D, inclination i, mass-to-light ratio M/L and the intrinsic orbital structure of the globular cluster omega Cen, by fitting axisymmetric dynamic…

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…

Dynamical Modeling of SAURON Galaxies

M. Cappellari, R. C. E. van den Bosch, E. K. Verolme +11

We describe our program for the dynamical modeling of early-type galaxies observed with the panoramic integral-field spectrograph SAURON. We are using Schwarzschild's numerical orb…

A SAURON view of galaxies

E. K. Verolme, M. Cappellari, G. van de Ven +10

We have measured the two-dimensional kinematics and line-strength distributions of 72 representative nearby early-type galaxies, out to approximately one effective radius, with our…
