Tidal Interaction as the origin of early-type dwarf galaxies in group environment

Sanjaya Paudel, Chang H. Ree

We present a sample of dwarf galaxies that suffer ongoing disruption by the tidal force of nearby massive galaxies. Analysing structural and stellar population properties using the…

Stellar Kinematics and Structural Properties of Virgo Cluster Dwarf Early-Type Galaxies from the SMAKCED Project III. Rotation versus Pressure Support

E. Toloba, P. Guhathakurta, A. Boselli +17

We analyze the stellar kinematics of 39 dwarf early-type galaxies (dEs) in the Virgo cluster. Based on the specific stellar angular momentum lambda_e and the ellipticity, we find 1…

Stellar Kinematics and Structural Properties of Virgo Cluster Dwarf Early-Type Galaxies from the SMAKCED Project II. The Survey and a Systematic Analysis of Kinematic Anomalies and Asymmetries

E. Toloba, P. Guhathakurta, R. Peletier +15

We present spatially resolved kinematics and global stellar populations and mass-to-light ratios for a sample of 39 dwarf early-type (dE) galaxies in the Virgo cluster studied as p…

The Atlas3D project -- XXIX. The new look of early-type galaxies and surrounding fields disclosed by extremely deep optical images

Pierre-Alain Duc, Jean-Charles Cuillandre, Emin Karabal +24

Galactic archeology based on star counts is instrumental to reconstruct the past mass assembly of Local Group galaxies. The development of new observing techniques and data-reducti…

An isolated, compact early-type galaxy with a diffuse stellar component: merger origin?

Sanjaya Paudel, Thorsten Lisker, K. S. A. Hansson +1

The relation between the size and luminosity for both bright and faint early-type galaxies has been repeatedly discussed as a crucial proxy for understanding evolutionary scenarios…

Identification of old tidal dwarfs near early-type galaxies from deep imaging and HI observations

Pierre-Alain Duc, Sanjaya Paudel, Richard M. McDermid +5

It has recently been proposed that the dwarf spheroidal galaxies located in the Local Group disks of satellites (DoSs) may be tidal dwarf galaxies (TDGs) born in a major merger at…
