A SAURON study of stars and gas in Sa bulges

J. Falcon-Barroso, R. Bacon, M. Bureau +10

We present results from our ongoing effort to understand the morphological and kinematical properties of early-type galaxies using the integral-field spectrograph SAURON. We discus…

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…

The SAURON project - V. Integral-field emission-line kinematics of 48 elliptical and lenticular galaxies

M. Sarzi, J. Falcon-Barroso, R. L. Davies +10

We present the emission-line fluxes and kinematics of 48 representative elliptical and lenticular galaxies obtained with our custom-built integral-field spectrograph SAURON. Hb, [O…

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…

Morphology and kinematics of the ionised gas in early-type galaxies

J. Falcón-Barroso, M. Sarzi, R. Bacon +10

We present results of our ongoing study of the morphology and kinematics of the ionised gas in 48 representative nearby elliptical and lenticular galaxies using the SAURON integral…

The SAURON project - IV. The mass-to-light ratio, the virial mass estimator and the fundamental plane of elliptical and lenticular galaxies

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

We investigate with unprecedented accuracy the correlations between the dynamical mass-to-light ratio M/L and other global observables of E and S0 galaxies. We construct two-integr…

Spatially Resolved Spectroscopy of the E+A Galaxies in the z=0.32 Cluster AC114

M. B. Pracy, W. J. Couch, C. Blake +5

We present spatially resolved intermediate resolution spectroscopy of a sample of twelve E+A galaxies in the z=0.32 rich galaxy cluster AC 114, obtained with the FLAMES multi-integ…

Old Globular Clusters Masquerading as Young in NGC 4365?

Jean P. Brodie, Jay Strader, Glenda Denicolo +5

High signal-to-noise, low-resolution spectra have been obtained for 22 globular clusters (GCs) in NGC 4365. Some of these were selected as probable representatives of an intermedia…
