Revisiting the (V/sigma)-epsilon anisotropy diagram of early-type galaxies using integral-field kinematics
M. Cappellari, R. Bacon, M. Bureau +11
We use integral-field observation of the stellar kinematics obtained with SAURON in combination with Schwarzschild dynamical models to revisit our understanding of the classic (V/s…
Three-Dimensional Bar Structure and Disc/Bulge Secular Evolution
M. Bureau, G. Aronica, E. Athanassoula
Kn-band imaging of a sample of 30 edge-on spiral galaxies with a boxy or peanut-shaped (B/PS) bulge is discussed. Galaxies with a B/PS bulge tend to have a more complex morphology…
HI and Hot Gas in the Outskirts of the M81 Group
M. Bureau, F. Walter, J. van Gorkom +1
Results are presented from a wide area, high resolution HI synthesis survey of the outer regions of the nearby M81 group, where internal (galactic) and external (group-related) evo…
Dynamical Modeling of SAURON Galaxies
M. Cappellari, R. C. E. van den Bosch, E. K. Verolme +11
We describe our program for the dynamical modeling of early-type galaxies observed with the panoramic integral-field spectrograph SAURON. We are using Schwarzschild's numerical orb…
SAURON Observations of Disks in Spheroids
M. Bureau, R. Bacon, E. Emsellem +9
The panoramic integral-field spectrograph SAURON is currently being used to map the stellar kinematics, gaseous kinematics, and stellar populations of a large number of early-type…
Structure, Kinematics, and Dynamics of Bulges
M. Bureau
A historical review of our understanding of bulges is first presented, highlighting similarities and differences between bulges and ellipticals. Then, some topics of current intere…
