On the origin and fate of ionised-gas in early-type galaxies: the SAURON perspective

M. Sarzi, R. Bacon, M. Cappellari +9

By detecting ionised-gas emission in 75% of the cases, the SAURON integral-field spectroscopic survey has further demonstrated that early-type galaxies often display nebular emissi…

The SAURON project - VIII. OASIS/CFHT integral-field spectroscopy of elliptical and lenticular galaxy centres

R. M. McDermid, E. Emsellem, K. L. Shapiro +10

We present high spatial resolution integral-field spectroscopy of 28 elliptical (E) and lenticular (S0) galaxies from the SAURON representative survey obtained with the OASIS spect…

Probing the Low-Luminosity XLF in Normal Elliptical Galaxies

D. -W. Kim, G. Fabbiano, V. Kalogera +8

We present the first low luminosity (LX > 5 - 10 1036 erg s-1) X-ray luminosity functions (XLFs) of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) determined for two typical old elliptical galaxi…

The SAURON project - VII. Integral-field absorption and emission-line kinematics of 24 spiral galaxy bulges

J. Falcón-Barroso, R. Bacon, M. Bureau +10

(Abridged) We present observations of the stellar and gas kinematics for a representative sample of 24 Sa galaxies obtained with our custom-built integral-field spectrograph SAURON…

The SAURON project - VI. Line strength maps of 48 elliptical and lenticular galaxies

H. Kuntschner, E. Emsellem, R. Bacon +9

We present absorption line strength maps of 48 representative elliptical and lenticular galaxies obtained as part of the SAURON survey of nearby galaxies. Using high-quality spectr…

The stellar populations of E and S0 galaxies as seen with SAURON

H. Kuntschner, E. Emsellem, R. Bacon +9

We present selected results from integral-field spectroscopy of 48 early-type galaxies observed as part of the SAURON survey. Maps of the Hbeta, Fe5015, Mgb and Fe5270 indices in t…
