Universal bimodality in kinematic morphology and the divergent pathways to galaxy quenching

Bitao Wang, Yingjie Peng, Michele Cappellari

The hierarchical structure formation of our Universe inherently involves violent and chaotic episodes of mass assembly such as galaxy mergers. The level of bulk rotation of the col…

Spatially Resolved Kinematics of SLACS Lens Galaxies. I: Data and Kinematic Classification

Shawn Knabel, Tommaso Treu, Michele Cappellari +4

We obtain spatially resolved kinematics with the Keck Cosmic Web Imager (KCWI) integral-field spectrograph for a sample of 14 massive (11 < log M/M < 12) lensi…

On the kinematic nature of apparent discs at high redshifts: Local counterparts are not dominated by ordered rotation but by tangentially anisotropic random motion

Bitao Wang, Yingjie Peng, Michele Cappellari +2

It is not straightforward to physically interpret the apparent morphology of galaxies. Recent observations by James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) revealed a dominant galaxy populatio…

Project Dinos II: Redshift evolution of dark and luminous matter density profiles in strong-lensing elliptical galaxies across 0.1 < z < 0.9

William Sheu, Anowar J. Shajib, Tommaso Treu +5

We present a new measurement of the dark and luminous matter distribution of massive elliptical galaxies, and their evolution with redshift, by combining strong lensing and dynamic…
