On the use of X-rays to determine dynamical properties of elliptical galaxies
L. Ciotti, S. Pellegrini
The X-ray emitting interstellar medium of early type galaxies is often used as a tool to determine their total mass M and stellar orbital anisotropy beta profiles, based on the hyp…

X-ray emission and internal kinematics in early-type galaxies. I. Observations
S. Pellegrini, E. V. Held, L. Ciotti
Long slit spectroscopic data for 7 early-type galaxies with X-ray emission have been analyzed to derive velocity dispersion and radial velocity profiles. Major axis rotation curves…

The energetics of flat and rotating early-type galaxies and their X-ray luminosity
L. Ciotti, S. Pellegrini
The global energy budget of the hot gas flows in early-type galaxies is used to explain the recent observational results that S0 galaxies have lower mean X-ray luminosity per…
