Disentangling the stellar populations in the counter-rotating disc galaxy NGC 4550
Evelyn J. Johnston, Michael R. Merrifield, Alfonso Aragon-Salamanca +1
In order to try and understand its origins, we present high-quality long-slit spectral observations of the counter-rotating stellar discs in the strange S0 galaxy NGC 4550. We kine…

Spectroscopic bulge-disc decomposition: a new method to study the evolution of lenticular galaxies
E. J. Johnston, A. Aragón-Salamanca, M. R. Merrifield +1
A new method for spectroscopic bulge-disc decomposition is presented, in which the spatial light profile in a two-dimensional spectrum is decomposed wavelength-by-wavelength into b…
