Two-dimensional multi-component photometric decomposition of CALIFA galaxies

J. Mendez-Abreu, T. Ruiz-Lara, L. Sanchez-Menguiano +20

We present a two-dimensional multi-component photometric decomposition of 404 galaxies from the CALIFA Data Release 3. They represent all possible galaxies with no clear signs of i…

Stellar kinematics across the Hubble sequence in the CALIFA survey: General properties and aperture corrections

J. Falcón-Barroso, M. Lyubenova, G. van de Ven +32

We present the stellar kinematic maps of a large sample of galaxies from the integral-field spectroscopic survey CALIFA. The sample comprises 300 galaxies displaying a wide range o…

Shape asymmetry: a morphological indicator for automatic detection of galaxies in the post-coalescence merger stages

M. M. Pawlik, V. Wild, C. J. Walcher +5

We present a new morphological indicator designed for automated recognition of galaxies with faint asymmetric tidal features suggestive of an ongoing or past merger. We use this ne…
