The SWELLS survey - V. A Salpeter stellar initial mass function in the bulges of massive spiral galaxies

A. A. Dutton, T. Treu, B. J. Brewer +6

Recent work has suggested that the stellar initial mass function (IMF) is not universal, but rather is correlated with galaxy stellar mass, stellar velocity dispersion, or morpholo…

Luminous Satellites of Early-Type Galaxies I: Spatial Distribution

A. M. Nierenberg, M. W. Auger, T. Treu +2

We study the spatial distribution of faint satellites of intermediate redshift (0.1<z<0.8), early-type galaxies, selected from the GOODS fields. We combine high resolution HST imag…

A Compact Early-type Galaxy at z = 0.6 Under a Magnifying Lens: Evidence For Inside-out Growth

M. W. Auger, T. Treu, B. J. Brewer +1

We use Keck laser guide star adaptive optics imaging and exploit the magnifying effects of strong gravitational lensing (the effective resolution is FWHM ~ 200 pc) to investigate t…

The Sloan Lens ACS Survey. X. Stellar, Dynamical, and Total Mass Correlations of Massive Early-type Galaxies

M. W. Auger, T. Treu, A. S. Bolton +5

We use stellar masses, photometry, lensing, and velocity dispersions to investigate empirical correlations for the final sample of 73 early-type lens galaxies (ETGs) from the SLACS…

Dark Matter Contraction and the Stellar Content of Massive Early-type Galaxies: Disfavoring "Light" Initial Mass Functions

M. W. Auger, T. Treu, R. Gavazzi +3

We use stellar dynamics, strong lensing, stellar population synthesis models, and weak lensing shear measurements to constrain the dark matter (DM) profile and stellar mass in a sa…

The initial mass function of early-type galaxies

T. Treu, M. W. Auger, L. V. E. Koopmans +3

We determine an absolute calibration of the initial mass function (IMF) of early-type galaxies, by studying a sample of 56 gravitational lenses identified by the SLACS Survey. Unde…
