The inner structure of very massive elliptical galaxies: implications for the inside-out formation mechanism of z~2 galaxies
O. Tiret, P. Salucci, M. Bernardi +2
We analyze a sample of 23 supermassive elliptical galaxies (central velocity dispersion larger than 330 km s-1), drawn from the SDSS. For each object, we estimate the dynamical mas…

Cosmic Evolution of Size and Velocity Dispersion for Early Type Galaxies
L. Fan, A. Lapi, A. Bressan +3
[abridged] Massive, passively evolving galaxies at redshifts z>1 exhibit on the average physical sizes smaller by factors ~3 than local early type galaxies (ETGs) endowed with the…
