VST - VLT Survey Telescope Integration Status
C. Belfiore, M. Brescia, M. Capaccioli +20
The VLT Survey Telescope (VST) is a 2.6m aperture, wide field, UV to I facility, to be installed at the European Southern Observatory (ESO) on the Cerro Paranal Chile. VST was prim…
Lens candidates in the Capodimonte Deep Field in the vicinity of the CSL1 object
M. V. Sazhin, O. S. Khovanskaya, M. Capaccioli +4
CSL1 is a peculiar object discovered in the OACDF. Photometric and spectroscopic investigation strongly suggest that it may be the first case of gravitational lensing by cosmic str…
Elliptical Galaxies: Darkly Cloaked or Scantily Clad?
A. J. Romanowsky, N. G. Douglas, K. Kuijken +7
Planetary nebulae (PNe) may be the most promising tracers in the halos of early-type galaxies. We have used multi-object spectrographs on the WHT and the VLT, and the new Planetary…
Mass-to-light ratios in early-type galaxies and the dark matter content
M. Capaccioli, N. R. Napolitano, M. Arnaboldi
The distribution of the radial trends of the mass-to-light ratios (M/L) within an assorted sample of early-type galaxies is discussed. Three classes of galaxies are identified acco…
