The Atlas3D Project -- XI. Dense molecular gas properties of CO-luminous early-type galaxies

Alison Crocker, Melanie Krips, Martin Bureau +24

Surveying eighteen 12CO-bright galaxies from the ATLAS3D early-type galaxy sample with the Institut de Radio Astronomie Millimétrique (IRAM) 30m telescope, we detect 13CO(1-0) and…

The Atlas3D project -- XIII. Mass and morphology of HI in early-type galaxies as a function of environment

Paolo Serra, Tom Oosterloo, Raffaella Morganti +23

We present the Atlas3D HI survey of 166 nearby early-type galaxies (ETGs) down to M(HI)~10^7 M_sun. We detect HI in ~40% of all ETGs outside the Virgo cluster and in ~10% of all ET…

The ATLAS3D Project-- VIII: Modelling the Formation and Evolution of Fast and Slow Rotator Early-Type Galaxies within CDM

Sadegh Khochfar, Eric Emsellem, Paolo Serra +22

We propose a simple model for the origin of fast and slow rotator early-type galaxies (ETG) within the hierarchical CDM scenario, that is based on the assumption that the mass f…

The Atlas3D project - X. On the origin of the molecular and ionised gas in early-type galaxies

Timothy A. Davis, Katherine Alatalo, Marc Sarzi +22

We make use of interferometric CO and HI observations, and optical integral-field spectroscopy to probe the origin of the molecular and ionised interstellar medium (ISM) in local e…

The Atlas-3D project - IX. The merger origin of a fast and a slow rotating Early-Type Galaxy revealed with deep optical imaging: first results

Pierre-Alain Duc, Jean-Charles Cuillandre, Paolo Serra +24

The mass assembly of galaxies leaves imprints in their outskirts, such as shells and tidal tails. The frequency and properties of such fine structures depend on the main acting mec…

The Atlas3D Project - VI. Simulations of binary galaxy mergers and the link with Fast Rotators, Slow Rotators, and Kinematically Distinct Cores

Maxime Bois, Eric Emsellem, Frederic Bournaud +21

We study the formation of early-type galaxies through mergers with a sample of 70 high-resolution (softening length < 60 pc and 12*10^6 particles) numerical simulations of binary m…
