The Atlas3D Project -- XI. Dense molecular gas properties of CO-luminous early-type galaxies

Alison Crocker, Melanie Krips, Martin Bureau +24

Surveying eighteen 12CO-bright galaxies from the ATLAS3D early-type galaxy sample with the Institut de Radio Astronomie Millimétrique (IRAM) 30m telescope, we detect 13CO(1-0) and…

The Atlas3D project -- XIII. Mass and morphology of HI in early-type galaxies as a function of environment

Paolo Serra, Tom Oosterloo, Raffaella Morganti +23

We present the Atlas3D HI survey of 166 nearby early-type galaxies (ETGs) down to M(HI)~10^7 M_sun. We detect HI in ~40% of all ETGs outside the Virgo cluster and in ~10% of all ET…

The SAURON Project - XX. The Spitzer [3.6] - [4.5] colour in early-type galaxies: colours, colour gradients and inverted scaling relations

Reynier F. Peletier, Elif Kutdemir, Guido van der Wolk +15

We investigate the [3.6] - [4.5] Spitzer-IRAC colour behaviour of the early-type galaxies of the SAURON survey, a representative sample of 48 nearby ellipticals and lenticulars. We…

The ATLAS3D Project-- VIII: Modelling the Formation and Evolution of Fast and Slow Rotator Early-Type Galaxies within CDM

Sadegh Khochfar, Eric Emsellem, Paolo Serra +22

We propose a simple model for the origin of fast and slow rotator early-type galaxies (ETG) within the hierarchical CDM scenario, that is based on the assumption that the mass f…

The SAURON Project - XIX. Optical and near-infrared scaling relations of nearby elliptical, lenticular and Sa galaxies

J. Falcón-Barroso, G. van de Ven, R. F. Peletier +16

[Abridged] We present ground-based MDM V-band and Spitzer/IRAC 3.6um-band photometric observations of the 72 representative galaxies of the SAURON Survey. In combination with the S…

The Atlas-3D project - IX. The merger origin of a fast and a slow rotating Early-Type Galaxy revealed with deep optical imaging: first results

Pierre-Alain Duc, Jean-Charles Cuillandre, Paolo Serra +24

The mass assembly of galaxies leaves imprints in their outskirts, such as shells and tidal tails. The frequency and properties of such fine structures depend on the main acting mec…
