The counter-rotating stellar core of NGC 4494
L. Coccato, L. Morelli, A. Pizzella +2
Context. Kinematically decoupled cores (KDCs) are often found in the centers of early-type galaxies. Aims. We aim to investigate the kinematics, structure, and stellar populations…
The fragility of thin discs in galaxies -- II. Thin discs as tracers of the assembly history of galaxies
Pablo M. Galán-de Anta, Pedro R. Capelo, Eugene Vasiliev +4
Thin galactic discs and nuclear stellar discs (NSDs) are fragile structures that can be easily disturbed by merger events. By studying the age of the stellar populations in present…
The bar rotation rate as a diagnostic of dark matter content in the centre of disc galaxies
C. Buttitta, E. M. Corsini, J. A. L. Aguerri +6
We investigate the link between the bar rotation rate and dark matter content in barred galaxies by concentrating on the cases of the lenticular galaxies NGC4264 and NGC4277. These…
WEAVE-StePS. A stellar population survey using WEAVE at WHT
A. Iovino, B. M. Poggianti, A. Mercurio +44
The upcoming new generation of optical spectrographs on four-meter-class telescopes will provide valuable opportunities for forthcoming galaxy surveys through their huge multiplexi…
The fragility of thin discs in galaxies -- I. Building tailored N-body galaxy models
Pablo M. Galán-de Anta, Eugene Vasiliev, Marc Sarzi +6
Thin stellar discs on both galactic and nuclear, sub-kpc scales are believed to be fragile structures that would be easily destroyed in major mergers. In turn, this makes the age-d…
The wide-field, multiplexed, spectroscopic facility WEAVE: Survey design, overview, and simulated implementation
Shoko Jin, Scott C. Trager, Gavin B. Dalton +212
WEAVE, the new wide-field, massively multiplexed spectroscopic survey facility for the William Herschel Telescope, will see first light in late 2022. WEAVE comprises a new 2-degree…
