A SINFONI view of Galaxy Centers: Morphology and Kinematics of five Nuclear Star Formation Rings
T. Böker, J. Falcón-Barroso, E. Schinnerer +2
We present near-infrared (H- and K-band) integral-field observations of the circumnuclear star formation rings in five nearby spiral galaxies. The data, obtained at the Very Large…
Spiral Galaxies in the SAURON Survey
Reynier F. Peletier, Katia Ganda, Jesus Falcon-Barroso +11
We discuss some recent integral field spectroscopy using the SAURON instrument of a sample consisting of 24 early-type spirals, part of the SAURON Survey, and 18 late-type spirals.…
Fast and Slow Rotators: The build-up of the Red Sequence
Eric Emsellem, Michele Cappellari, Davor Krajnovic +11
Using the unique dataset obtained within the course of the SAURON project, a radically new view of the structure, dynamics and stellar populations of early-type galaxies has emerge…
Supermassive black holes from OASIS and SAURON integral-field kinematics
M. Cappellari, R. Bacon, R. L. Davies +10
Supermassive black holes are a key element in our understanding of how galaxies form. Most of the progress in this very active field of research is based on just ~30 determinations…
Recent Star Formation in Nearby Early-type Galaxies
M. Sarzi, R. Bacon, M. Cappellari +9
Motivated by recent progress in the study of early-type galaxies owing to technological advances, the launch of new space telescopes and large ground-based surveys, we attempt a sh…
Quantifying Resonant Structure in NGC 6946 from Two-dimensional Kinematics
Kambiz Fathi, Silvia Toonen, Jesús Falcón-Barroso +5
We study the two-dimensional kinematics of the H-alpha-emitting gas in the nearby barred Scd galaxy, NGC 6946, in order to determine the pattern speed of the primary m=2 perturbati…
