Group, field and isolated early-type galaxies I. Observations and nuclear data

Glenda Denicolo, Roberto Terlevich, Elena Terlevich +3

This is the first paper of a series on the investigation of stellar population properties and galaxy evolution of an observationally homogeneous sample of early-type galaxies in gr…

Ages and Metallicities of Hickson Compact Group Galaxies

Robert N. Proctor, Duncan A. Forbes, George K. T. Hau +4

Hickson Compact Groups (HCGs) constitute an interesting extreme in the range of environments in which galaxies are located, as the space density of galaxies in these small groups a…

A Catalogue and Analysis of Local Galaxy Ages and Metallicities

A. I. Terlevich, Duncan A. Forbes

We have assembled a catalogue of relative ages, metallicities and abundance ratios for about 150 local galaxies in field, group and cluster environments. The galaxies span morpholo…

The colour magnitude relation for galaxies in the Coma cluster

A. I. Terlevich, N. Caldwell, R. G. Bower

We present a new photometric catalogue of the Coma galaxy cluster in the Johnson U- and V- bands. We cover an area of 3360arcmin2 of sky, to a depth of V=20 mag in a 13 arcsec diam…

Cold gas in elliptical galaxies

A. Georgakakis, A. M. Hopkins, A. Caulton +3

We explore the evolution of the cold gas (molecular and neutral hydrogen) of elliptical galaxies and merger remnants ordered into a time sequence on the basis of spectroscopic age…

Structural evolution in elliptical galaxies: the age-shape relation

Barbara S. Ryden, Duncan A. Forbes, A. I. Terlevich

We test the hypothesis that the apparent axis ratio of an elliptical galaxy is correlated with the age of its stellar population. We find that old ellipticals (with estimated stell…

The Black Hole Mass - Galaxy Age Relation

M. R. Merrifield, D. A. Forbes, A. I. Terlevich

We present evidence that there is a significant correlation between the fraction of a galaxy's mass that lies in its central black hole and the age of the galaxy's stellar populati…

Age Estimates for Galaxies in Groups

Duncan A. Forbes, Alejandro I. Terlevich

We discuss recent developments on the age and metallicity distribution for early type galaxies in different environments.

Colour-magnitude relations and spectral line strengths in the Coma cluster

A. I. Terlevich, H. Kuntschner, R. G. Bower +2

We use the , , and spectral absorption line indices, together with U- and V-band photometry of 101 galaxies in the Coma cluster, to investigate how…

The Formation History of Early-Type Galaxies: An Observational Perspective

Richard G. Bower, Ale Terlevich, Tadayuki Kodama +1

This talk investigates the formation of early-type galaxies from a deliberately observational view point. I begin by reviewing the conclusions that can be reached by comparing the…

The Colour-Magnitude Relation as a Constraint on the Formation of Rich Cluster Galaxies

Richard G. Bower, Tadayuki Kodama, Ale Terlevich

In this paper, we examine the role that the colour-magnitude relation (CMR) can play in constraining the formation history of rich cluster galaxies. Firstly, we consider the colour…
