Stellar Velocity Profiles and Line-Strengths out to Four Effective Radii in the Early-Type Galaxy NGC 3379
A. Weijmans, M. Cappellari, P. T. de Zeeuw +6
We describe a new technique to measure stellar kinematics and line-strengths at large radii in nearby galaxies. Using the integral-field spectrograph SAURON as a 'photon-collector'…

A search for clusters at high redshift - IV. Spectroscopy of H-alpha emitters in a proto-cluster at z=2.16
J. D. Kurk, L. Pentericci, R. A. Overzier +2
Radio galaxy PKS 1138-262 is a massive galaxy at z=2.16, located in a dense environment. We have found an overdensity of Ly-alpha emitting galaxies in this field, consistent with a…

A search for clusters at high redshift - III. Candidate H-alpha emitters and EROs in the PKS 1138-262 proto-cluster at z=2.16
J. D. Kurk, L. Pentericci, H. J. A. Roettgering +1
In this paper we present deep VLT multi wavelength imaging observations of the field around the radio galaxy PKS 1138-262 aimed at detecting and studying a (potential) proto-cluste…
