Establishing the level of cylindrical rotation in Boxy/Peanut bulges
Alireza Molaeinezhad, Jesus Falcón-Barroso, Inma Martínez-Valpuesta +3
We present SAURON integral-field observations of a sample of 12 mid to high-inclination disk galaxies, to unveil hidden bars on the basis of their kinematics, i.e., the correlation…
No direct coupling between bending of galaxy disc stellar age and light profiles
T. Ruiz-Lara, I. Pérez, E. Florido +19
We study the stellar properties of 44 face-on spiral galaxies from the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area survey via full spectrum fitting techniques. We compare the age profile…
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…
Virgo cluster and field dwarf ellipticals in 3D: III. Spatially and temporally resolved stellar populations
Agnieszka Ryś, Mina Koleva, Jesús Falcón-Barroso +4
We present the stellar population analysis of a sample of 12 dwarf elliptical galaxies, observed with the SAURON integral field unit, using the full-spectrum fitting method. We sho…
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…
The Stellar Kinematics of Extragalactic Bulges
Jesús Falcón-Barroso
Galactic bulges are complex systems. Once thought to be small-scale versions of elliptical galaxies, advances in astronomical instrumentation (spectroscopy in particular) has revea…
Which galaxy mass estimator can we trust?
Luis Peralta de Arriba, Marc Balcells, Jesús Falcón-Barroso +1
We address the problem that dynamical masses of high-redshift massive galaxies, derived using virial scaling, often come out lower than stellar masses inferred from population fitt…
