SAURON: An Innovative Look at Early-Type Galaxies
M. Bureau, R. Bacon, M. Cappellari +9
A summary of the SAURON project and its current status is presented. SAURON is a panoramic integral-field spectrograph designed to study the stellar kinematics, gaseous kinematics,…
Secular evolution in the central regions of galaxies
Eric Emsellem
In this paper, I mention a few processes which may play a role in the evolution of the central regions of galaxies. In this context, I briefly discuss some issues regarding the for…
Kinemetry: quantifying kinematic maps
Y. Copin, R. Bacon, M. Bureau +7
We describe a new technique, kinemetry, to quantify kinematic maps of early-type galaxies in an efficient way. We present the first applications to velocity fields obtained with th…
Density waves in the central regions of galaxies
Eric Emsellem
Density waves in the central kpc of galaxies, taking the form of spirals, bars and/or lopsided density distributions are potential actors of the redistribution of angular momentum.…
Ionized Gas in Spheroids: The SAURON Survey
D. Krajnovic, R. Bacon, M. Bureau +11
Early results are reported from the SAURON survey of the kinematics and stellar populations of nearby cluster and field E, S0, and Sa galaxies. We present maps of the Hbeta and [OI…
