Galaxy mapping with the SAURON integral-field spectrograph: The star formation history of NGC 4365
Roger L. Davies, Harald Kuntschner, Eric Emsellem +9
We report the first wide-field mapping of the kinematics and stellar populations in the E3 galaxy NGC 4365. The velocity maps extend previous long-slit work. They show two independ…
On the dependence of spectroscopic indices of early-type galaxies on age, metallicity and velocity dispersion
Harald Kuntschner, John R. Lucey, Russell J. Smith +2
We investigate the Mg-sigma and <Fe>-sigma relations in a sample of 72 early-type galaxies drawn mostly from cluster and group environments using a homogeneous data-set which is we…
Lensing in the Hercules Supercluster
John P. Blakeslee, Mark R. Metzger, Harald Kuntschner +1
We report Keck LRIS observations of an arc-like background galaxy near the center of Abell 2152 (z=0.043), one of the three clusters comprising the Hercules supercluster. The backg…
SAURON Observations of Disks in Early-Type Galaxies
M. Bureau, Y. Copin, E. K. Verolme +9
We briefly describe the SAURON project, aimed at determining the intrinsic shape and internal dynamics of spheroids. We focus here on the ability of SAURON to identify gaseous and…
A Photometric Study of the Ages and Metallicities of Early-type Galaxies in A2218
Ian Smail, Harald Kuntschner, T. Kodama +4
We present deep optical and near-infrared imaging of the rich cluster A2218 at z=0.17. Our optical imaging comes from new multicolour Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 observations in t…
The stellar populations of early-type galaxies in the Fornax cluster
Harald Kuntschner
We have measured central line strengths for a magnitude-limited sample of early-type galaxies in the Fornax cluster, comprising 11 elliptical (E) and 11 lenticular (S0) galaxies, m…
