The WINGS Survey: a progress report
G. Fasano, B. Poggianti, D. Bettoni +7
A two-band (B and V) wide-field imaging survey of a complete, all-sky X-ray selected sample of 78 clusters in the redshift range z=0.04-0.07 is presented. The aim of this survey is…
Anatomy of giant spiral galaxies
E. Pignatelli, G. Galletta
We present B and I band photometry, gas and star kinematics and 3D modelling of 7 giant spiral galaxies. The stellar systems studied have morphological types spanning from S0/a to…
A Massive Dark Object in the S0 galaxy NGC 4350
E. Pignatelli
We present a new detection of a Massive Dark Object in the S0 Galaxy NGC 4350, obtained applying a new dynamical model on ground-based photometric and kinematic data already presen…
Morphological classification of high redshift galaxies
E. Pignatelli, G. Fasano
We present GASPHOT, a tool for automated surface photometry and morphological classification of galaxies in deep and wide fields. The requirements for any such tool are reviewed, a…
Multi-component models for disk galaxies. A test case on NGC 5866
E. Pignatelli
We present an application of a new set of detailed, self-consistent, dynamical models for disc galaxies. We start from the hypothesis that each galaxy can be decomposed in a bulge,…
Correlation between kinematics and Hubble Sequence in disk galaxies?
J. C. Vega Beltran, E. Pignatelli, W. W. Zeilinger +4
We present a comparison between ionized gas and stellar kinematics for a sample of 5 early-to-intermediate disc galaxies. We measured the major axis V and sigma radial profiles for…
