The flattening and the orbital structure of early-type galaxies and collisionless N-body binary disk mergers

J. Thomas, R. Jesseit, R. P. Saglia +8

We use oblate axisymmetric dynamical models including dark halos to determine the orbital structure of intermediate mass to massive Coma early-type galaxies. We find a large variet…

The Centers of Early-Type Galaxies with HST. V. New WFPC2 Photometry

Tod R. Lauer, S. M. Faber, Karl Gebhardt +14

We analyze HST+WFPC2 images of 77 early-type galaxies. Brightness profiles are classed into "core" or "power-law" forms. Cores are typically rounder than power-law galaxies. Nearly…

The DEEP Groth Strip Galaxy Redshift Survey. VIII. The Evolution of Luminous Field Bulges at Redshift z ~ 1

David C. Koo, Luc Simard, Christopher N. A. Willmer +11

We present a sample of over 50 luminous field bulges (including ellipticals) found in the Groth Strip Survey (GSS), with 0.73< z < 1.04 and with bulge magnitudes I <= 23. The expon…

The DEEP Groth Strip Survey IX: Evolution of the Fundamental Plane of Field Galaxies

Karl Gebhardt, S. M. Faber, David C. Koo +8

Fundamental Plane studies provide an excellent means of understanding the evolutionary history of early-type galaxies. Using the Low Resolution Imaging Spectrograph on the Keck tel…

The Nuclear Disk in the Dwarf Elliptical Galaxy NGC 4486A

John Kormendy, Karl Gebhardt, F. Duccio Macchetto +1

Many ellipticals contain nuclear disks of dust and gas. Some ellipticals contain nuclear disks of stars that are distinct from the rest of the galaxy. We show that the dwarf E2 gal…

The DEEP Groth Strip Survey X: Number Density and Luminosity Function of Field E/S0 Galaxies at z < 1

Myungshin Im, L. Simard, S. M. Faber +7

We present the luminosity function and color-redshift relation of a magnitude-limited sample of 145 mostly red field E/S0 galaxies at z < 1 from the DEEP Groth Strip Survey (GSS).…
