SDSS-IV MaNGA: The kinematic-morphology of galaxies on the mass vs star-formation relation in different environments

Bitao Wang, Michele Cappellari, Yingjie Peng +1

We study the link between the kinematic-morphology of galaxies, as inferred from integral-field stellar kinematics, and their relation between mass and star formation rate (SFR). O…

Complete census of massive slow rotators in ten large galaxy clusters

Mark T. Graham, Michele Cappellari, Matthew A. Bershady +1

Galaxy interactions leave imprints in the motions of their stars, and so observing the two-dimensional stellar kinematics allows us to uncover their formation process. Slow rotator…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: New benchmark for the connection between stellar angular momentum and environment: a study of about 900 groups/clusters

Mark T. Graham, Michele Cappellari, Matthew A. Bershady +1

It has been observed that low redshift early-type galaxies can be separated into slow and fast rotators according to a proxy of specific stellar angular momentum, . Detail…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: Complete census of massive slow-rotator early-type galaxy candidates and their environment in a volume-limited sample

Mark T. Graham, Michele Cappellari, Matthew A. Bershady +1

Galaxy morphology is inextricably linked to environment. The morphology-density relation quantifies this relationship. However, optical morphology is only loosely related to the ki…

A group finder algorithm optimised for the study of local galaxy environment

Mark T. Graham, Michele Cappellari

The majority of galaxy group catalogues available in the literature use the popular friends-of-friends algorithm which links galaxies using a linking length. One potential drawback…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: The intrinsic shape of slow rotator early-type galaxies

Hongyu Li, Shude Mao, Michele Cappellari +3

By inverting the distributions of galaxies' apparent ellipticities and misalignment angles (measured around the projected half-light radius ) between their photometric a…
