Line strengths of early-type galaxies

Ricardo L. C. Ogando, Marcio A. G. Maia, Paulo S. Pellegrini +1

In this paper we present measurements of velocity dispersions and Lick indices for 509 galaxies in the local Universe, based on high signal-to-noise, long slit spectra obtained wit…

Do observed metallicity gradients of early-type galaxies support a hybrid formation scenario?

Ricardo L. C. Ogando, Marcio A. G. Maia, Cristina Chiappini +3

We measure radial gradients of the Mg2 index in 15 E-E/S0 and 14 S0 galaxies. Our homogeneous data set covers a large range of internal stellar velocity dispersions (2.0<logsigma<2…

On the Nature of the EIS Candidate Clusters: Confirmation of z<0.6 candidates

L. F. Olsen, C. Benoist, L. da Costa +7

We use public V-band imaging data from the wide-angle surveys conducted by the ESO Imaging Survey project (EIS) to further investigate the nature of the EIS galaxy cluster candidat…

New Techniques for Relating Dynamically Close Galaxy Pairs to Merger and Accretion Rates : Application to the SSRS2 Redshift Survey

D. R. Patton, R. G. Carlberg, R. O. Marzke +3

We introduce two new pair statistics, which relate close galaxy pairs to the merger and accretion rates. We demonstrate the importance of correcting these (and other) pair statisti…
