The SLUGGS Survey: stellar kinematics, kinemetry and trends at large radii in 25 early-type galaxies
Caroline Foster, Nicola Pastorello, Joel Roediger +9
Due to longer dynamical timescales, the outskirts of early-type galaxies retain the footprint of their formation and assembly. Under the popular two-phase galaxy formation scenario…
The SLUGGS survey: chromo-dynamical modelling of the lenticular galaxy NGC 1023
Arianna Cortesi, Ana L. Chies-Santos, Vincenzo Pota +12
Globular clusters (GCs) can be considered discrete, long-lived, dynamical tracers that retain crucial information about the assembly history of their parent galaxy. In this paper,…
VIMOS mosaic integral-field spectroscopy of the bulge and disk of the early-type galaxy NGC 4697
C. Spiniello, N. R. Napolitano, L. Coccato +5
We present an integral field study of the internal structure, kinematics and stellar population of the almost edge-on, intermediate luminosity () elliptical galaxy NGC 4697…
The SLUGGS survey: Combining stellar and globular cluster metallicities in the outer regions of early-type galaxies
Nicola Pastorello, Duncan A. Forbes, Christopher Usher +9
The outer halo regions of early-type galaxies carry key information about their past accretion history. However, spectroscopically probing the stellar component at such galactocent…
The SLUGGS Survey: Multi-population dynamical modelling of the elliptical galaxy NGC 1407 from stars and globular clusters
Vincenzo Pota, Aaron J. Romanowsky, Jean P. Brodie +7
We perform in-depth dynamical modelling of the luminous and dark matter (DM) content of the elliptical galaxy NGC 1407. Our strategy consists of solving the spherical Jeans equatio…
Small scatter and nearly-isothermal mass profiles to four half-light radii from two-dimensional stellar dynamics of early-type galaxies
Michele Cappellari, Aaron J. Romanowsky, Jean P. Brodie +9
We study the total mass-density profile for a sample of 14 fast-rotator early-type galaxies (stellar masses ). We combine observations from the SLUGG…
A SLUGGS and Gemini/GMOS combined study of the elliptical galaxy M60: wide-field photometry and kinematics of the globular cluster system
Vincenzo Pota, Jean P. Brodie, Terry Bridges +20
We present new wide-field photometry and spectroscopy of the globular clusters (GCs) around NGC 4649 (M60), the third brightest galaxy in the Virgo cluster. Imaging of NGC 4649 was…
