Study of the stellar line-strength indices and kinematics along bars
I. Perez, P. Sanchez-Blazquez, A. Zurita
This is the first paper of a series aimed to understand the formation and evolution of bars in early-type spirals and their influence in the evolution of the galaxy. Optical long-s…
Carbon and Nitrogen Abundances in Early-type Galaxies
Elisa Toloba, Patricia Sanchez-Blazquez, Javier Gorgas +1
For the first time, we undertake a systematic examination of the nitrogen abundances for a sample of 35 early-type galaxies spanning a range of masses and local environment. The ni…
Kinematic Properties and Stellar Populations of Faint Early-Type Galaxies: II. Line-Strength Measurements of Central Coma Galaxies
Ana Matkovic, Rafael Guzman, Patricia Sanchez-Blazquez +3
We present line-strength measurements for 74 early-type galaxies in the core of the Coma cluster reaching down to velocity dispersions, sigma, of 30 km/s. The index-sigma relations…
Radial kinematics of brightest cluster galaxies
S. I. Loubser, A. E. Sansom, P. Sanchez-Blazquez +2
This is the first of a series of papers devoted to the investigation of a large sample of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs), their kinematic and stellar population properties, and…
Spatially resolved spectroscopy of early-type galaxies over a range in mass
P. Sanchez-Blazquez, D. A. Forbes, J. Strader +2
Long-slit spectra have been obtained with the Keck telescope for a sample of 11 early-type galaxies covering a wide range in luminosity and hence mass. Rotation velocity and veloci…
New light on the formation and evolution of bars: Trends in the stellar line-strength indices distribution inside the bar region
I. Perez, P. Sanchez-Blazquez, A. Zurita
Aim: The aim is to study the stellar content of the bar region to constrain its formation and evolution. Methods: Line-strength indices in the bar region of a sample of 6 barred ga…
