Kinematics in the starbursting circumnuclear region of M100
Emma L. Allard, Reynier F. Peletier, Johan H. Knapen
We have obtained integral-field spectroscopic data, using the SAURON instrument, of the bar and starbursting circumnuclear region in the barred spiral galaxy M100. From our data we…
Long-Lived Triaxiality in the Dynamically Old Elliptical Galaxy NGC 4365: A Limit on Chaos and Black Hole Mass
Thomas S. Statler, Eric Emsellem, Reynier F. Peletier +1
Supermassive black holes in the centres of giant elliptical galaxies are thought to induce chaos and eliminate triaxiality in their hosts. We address whether this process operates…
The SAURON project - III. Integral-field absorption-line kinematics of 48 elliptical and lenticular galaxies
E. Emsellem, M. Cappellari, R. F. Peletier +9
We present the stellar kinematics of 48 representative elliptical and lenticular galaxies obtained with our custom-built integral-field spectrograph SAURON operating on the William…
Galactic Bulges from HST NICMOS Observations: Global Scaling Relations
M. Balcells, A. W. Graham, R. F. Peletier
We investigate bulge and disk scaling relations using a volume-corrected sample of early- to intermediate-type disk galaxies in which, importantly, the biasing flux from additional…
Galactic Bulges from HST NICMOS Observations: central galaxian objects, and nuclear profile slopes
M. Balcells, A. W. Graham, R. F. Peletier
We have measured the central structural properties for a sample of S0-Sbc galaxies down to scales of ~10 pc using HST NICMOS images. We find that the photometric masses of the cent…
Formation and evolution of S0 galaxies: a SAURON case study of NGC7332
J. Falcón-Barroso, R. F. Peletier, E. Emsellem +8
We present SAURON integral-field observations of the S0 galaxy NGC7332. Existing broad-band ground-based and HST photometry reveals a double disk structure and a boxy bulge interpr…
