ILLUSTRating red nugget assembly through observations and simulations
Micheli T. Moura, Anna Ferré-Mateu, Ana L. Chies-Santos +2
The properties of massive and compact early-type galaxies provide important constraints on early galaxy formation. Among these, massive relic galaxies, characterized by old stellar…

Distinguishing the formation paths of massive compact ETGs through their internal dynamical structures
Ling Zhu, Ana L. Chies-Santos, Micheli Trindade Moura +1
Massive early-type galaxies (ETGs) are thought to form in two phases: an initial phase of rapid star formation and a later phase of mergers. A small fraction of these galaxies, cal…
