Stellar Velocity Profiles and Line-Strengths out to Four Effective Radii in the Early-Type Galaxy NGC 3379

A. Weijmans, M. Cappellari, P. T. de Zeeuw +6

We describe a new technique to measure stellar kinematics and line-strengths at large radii in nearby galaxies. Using the integral-field spectrograph SAURON as a 'photon-collector'…

The SAURON project - XII. Kinematic substructures in early-type galaxies: evidence for disks in fast rotators

Davor Krajnovic, R. Bacon, Michele Cappellari +10

[Abridged] We analysed two-dimensional maps of 48 early-type galaxies obtained with the SAURON and OASIS integral-field spectrographs using kinemetry, a generalisation of surface p…

The Einstein Cross: constraint on dark matter from stellar dynamics and gravitational lensing

Glenn van de Ven, Jesus Falcon-Barroso, Richard M. McDermid +3

[Abridged] We present two-dimensional line-of-sight stellar kinematics of the lens galaxy in the Einstein Cross, obtained with the GEMINI 8m telescope, using the GMOS integral-fiel…

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…
