Rejuvenation of spiral bulges

Daniel Thomas, Roger L. Davies

We seek to understand whether the stellar populations of galactic bulges show fingerprints of secular evolution triggered by the presence of the disc. For this purpose we re-analys…

Dark Matter in the Central Regions of Early Type Galaxies

M. Cappellari, R. Bacon, M. Bureau +12

We investigate the well-known correlations between the dynamical mass-to-light ratio M/L and other global observables of elliptical (E) and lenticular (S0) galaxies. We construct t…

Internal kinematics and stellar populations of early-type galaxies in the Fornax cluster

Bettina Gerken, Harald Kuntschner, Roger L. Davies

We present a study of the internal kinematics and stellar populations of early-type galaxies in the Fornax cluster based on integral-field spectroscopic observations with Gemini So…

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…

Stellar Kinematics and Populations of Early-Type Galaxies with the SAURON and OASIS Integral-Field Spectrographs

R. M. McDermid, R. Bacon, H. Kuntschner +10

We summarise the results and achievements of integral-field spectroscopy of early-type galaxies, observed as part of a survey using both the SAURON and OASIS spectrographs. From th…

RXJ0142.0+2131: I. The galaxy content of an X-ray-luminous galaxy cluster at z=0.28

Jordi Barr, Roger Davies, Inger Jorgensen +2

We present a photometric and spectroscopic study of stellar populations in the X-ray-luminous cluster of galaxies RXJ0142.0+2131 at z=0.280. This paper analyses the results of high…
