IAU Symposium 241 - Stellar Populations as Building Blocks of Galaxies
A. Vazdekis, R. F. Peletier
Stellar populations, building blocks of galaxies, are direct tracers of the star formation history, the chemical enrichment and the assembly of galaxies in the Universe. They therf…
The SAURON project -- X. The orbital anisotropy of elliptical and lenticular galaxies: revisiting the (V/sigma,epsilon) diagram with integral-field stellar kinematics
M. Cappellari, E. Emsellem, R. Bacon +11
We analyse the orbital distribution of E and S0 galaxies using SAURON integral-field stellar kinematics. We construct the anisotropy (V/sigma,epsilon) diagram, for the 48 E/S0 gala…
SAURON: Observations of E/S0/Sa galaxies
H. Kuntschner, R. Bacon, M. Bureau +9
We present results from a new and unique integral-field spectrograph, SAURON. It has a large field of view and high throughput and is primarily built for the study of stellar & gas…
Two-dimensional kinematics and stellar populations of early-type galaxies: First results from the SAURON survey
Roland Bacon, Martin Bureau, Michele Cappellari +9
We present the SAURON project, which is aimed at studying the morphology, two-dimensional kinematics and stellar populations of a representative sample of elliptical galaxies and s…
Kinemetry: quantifying kinematic maps
Y. Copin, R. Bacon, M. Bureau +7
We describe a new technique, kinemetry, to quantify kinematic maps of early-type galaxies in an efficient way. We present the first applications to velocity fields obtained with th…
