Extragalactic planetary nebulae as mass tracers: biases in the estimate of dynamical quantities
M. Arnaboldi, N. Napolitano, M. Capaccioli
Planetary Nebulae (PNe) are very important kinematical tracers of the outer regions of early-type galaxies, where the integrated light techniques fail. Under ad hoc assumptions, th…
