NGC 4435: a bulge dominated galaxy with an unforeseen low mass central black hole

L. Coccato, M. Sarzi, A. Pizzella +3

We present the ionised gas kinematics of the SB0 galaxy NGC 4435 from spectra obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph. This galaxy has been selected on the basis of…

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…

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…
