Self-consistent stellar dynamical tori
L. Ciotti, G. Bertin, P. Londrillo
We present preliminary results on a new family of distribution functions that are able to generate axisymmetric, truncated (i.e., finite size) stellar dynamical models characterize…

Analytical properties of the R^(1/m) luminosity law
L. Ciotti, G. Bertin
In this paper we describe some analytical properties of the R^{1/m} law proposed by Sersic (1968) to categorize the photometric profiles of elliptical galaxies. In particular, we p…
