Creating S0s with major mergers: a 3D view
Miguel Querejeta, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Trinidad Tapia +8
A number of simulators have argued that major mergers can sometimes preserve discs (e.g. Springel & Hernquist 2005), but the possibility that they could explain the emergence of le…
Towards a new classification of galaxies: principal component analysis of CALIFA circular velocity curves
Veselina Kalinova, Dario Colombo, Erik Rosolowsky +16
We present a galaxy classification system for 238 (E1-Sdm) CALIFA (Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area) galaxies based on the shapes and amplitudes of their circular velocity cur…
Formation of S0 galaxies through mergers: Explaining angular momentum and concentration change from spirals to S0s
Miguel Querejeta, M. Carmen Eliche-Moral, Trinidad Tapia +6
The CALIFA team has recently found that the stellar angular momentum and concentration of late-type spiral galaxies are incompatible with those of lenticular galaxies (S0s), conclu…
