Testing the nature of S0 galaxies using planetary nebula kinematics in NGC 1023
E. Noordermeer, M. R. Merrifield, L. Coccato +9
We investigate the manner in which lenticular galaxies are formed by studying their stellar kinematics: an S0 formed from a fading spiral galaxy should display similar cold outer d…
Dark-Matter Content of Early-Type Galaxies with Planetary Nebulae
N. R. Napolitano, A. J. Romanowsky, L. Coccato +10
We examine the dark matter properties of nearby early-type galaxies using planetary nebulae (PNe) as mass probes. We have designed a specialised instrument, the Planetary Nebula Sp…
The high mass end of the Tully-Fisher relation
E. Noordermeer, M. A. W. Verheijen
We study the location of massive disk galaxies on the Tully-Fisher relation. Using a combination of K-band photometry and high-quality rotation curves, we show that in traditional…
Confrontation of MOND with the rotation curves of early-type disc galaxies
R. H. Sanders, E. Noordermeer
We extend the MOND analysis to a sample of 17 high surface brightness, early-type disc galaxies with rotation curves derived from a combination of 21cm HI line observations and opt…
The PN.S Elliptical Galaxy Survey: Data Reduction, Planetary Nebula Catalog, and Basic Dynamics for NGC 3379
N. G. Douglas, N. R. Napolitano, A. J. Romanowsky +9
We present results from Planetary Nebula Spectrograph (PN.S) observations of the elliptical galaxy NGC 3379 and a description of the data reduction pipeline. We detected 214 planet…
The mass distribution in early-type disk galaxies: declining rotation curves and correlations with optical properties
E. Noordermeer, J. M. van der Hulst, R. Sancisi +2
We present rotation curves for 19, mostly luminous, early-type disk galaxies. Rotation velocities are measured from a combination of HI velocity fields and long-slit optical emissi…
