The Mass Profile and Shape of Bars in the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G): Search for an Age Indicator for Bars

Taehyun Kim, Kartik Sheth, Dimitri A. Gadotti +24

We have measured the radial light profiles and global shapes of bars using two-dimensional 3.6 image decompositions for 144 face-on barred galaxies from the Spitzer Survey of…

Globular Cluster Populations: First Results from SG Early-Type Galaxies

Dennis Zaritsky, Manuel Aravena, E. Athanassoula +14

Using 3.6m images of 97 early-type galaxies, we develop and verify methodology to measure globular cluster populations from the SG survey images. We find that 1) the ratio,…

Evidence for the concurrent growth of thick discs and central mass concentrations from SG imaging

Sébastien Comerón, Bruce G. Elmegreen, Heikki Salo +3

We have produced vertically integrated radial luminosity profiles of 69 edge-on galaxies from the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (SG)…

Stellar Kinematics and Structural Properties of Virgo Cluster Dwarf Early-Type Galaxies from the SMAKCED Project III. Rotation versus Pressure Support

E. Toloba, P. Guhathakurta, A. Boselli +17

We analyze the stellar kinematics of 39 dwarf early-type galaxies (dEs) in the Virgo cluster. Based on the specific stellar angular momentum lambda_e and the ellipticity, we find 1…

Stellar Kinematics and Structural Properties of Virgo Cluster Dwarf Early-Type Galaxies from the SMAKCED Project II. The Survey and a Systematic Analysis of Kinematic Anomalies and Asymmetries

E. Toloba, P. Guhathakurta, R. Peletier +15

We present spatially resolved kinematics and global stellar populations and mass-to-light ratios for a sample of 39 dwarf early-type (dE) galaxies in the Virgo cluster studied as p…

The Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (SG): Precise Stellar Mass Distributions from Automated Dust Correction at 3.6 microns

M. Querejeta, S. E. Meidt, E. Schinnerer +26

The mid-infrared is an optimal window to trace stellar mass in nearby galaxies and the 3.6 IRAC band has been exploited to this effect, but such mass estimates can be biased by…
