Substructure in Dark Halos: Orbital Eccentricities and Dynamical Friction

Frank C. van den Bosch, Geraint F. Lewis, George Lake +1

We examine the distributions of eccentricities of orbits within mass distributions like those we see for galaxies and clusters. A comprehensive understanding of these orbital prope…

Nuclear stellar discs in early-type galaxies --- II. Photometric properties

Cecilia Scorza, Frank C. van den Bosch

Hubble Space Telescope images of two early-type galaxies harboring both nuclear and outer stellar discs are studied in detail. By means of a photometric decomposition, the images o…

The Formation of Disk-Bulge-Halo Systems and the Origin of the Hubble Sequence

Frank C. van den Bosch

We investigate the formation of disk-bulge-halo systems by including bulges in the Fall & Efstathiou theory of disk formation. This allows an investigation of bulge dominated disk…

Evidence for a 3 x 10^8 solar mass black hole in NGC 7052 from HST observations of the nuclear gas disk

R. P. van der Marel, F. C. van den Bosch

We present an HST study of the nuclear region of the E4 radio galaxy NGC 7052, which has a nuclear disk of dust and gas. The WFPC2 was used to obtain B, V and I broad-band images a…

Bar driven evolution of S0s: the edge-on galaxy NGC 4570

Frank C. van den Bosch, Eric Emsellem

We present circumstantial evidence that the central region of the edge-on S0 galaxy NGC 4570, which harbors a 150 pc scale nuclear disc in addition to its main outer disc, has been…
