Fossil group origins: VIII RXJ075243.6+455653 a transitionary fossil group
J. A. L. Aguerri, A. Longobardi, S. Zarattini +3
It is thought that fossil systems are relics of structure formation in the primitive Universe. They are galaxy aggregations that have assembled their mass at high redshift with few…
CALIFA reveals Prolate Rotation in Massive Early-type Galaxies: A Polar Galaxy Merger Origin?
Athanasia Tsatsi, Mariya Lyubenova, Glenn van de Ven +4
We present new evidence for eight early-type galaxies (ETGs) from the CALIFA Survey that show clear rotation around their major photometric axis ("prolate rotation"). These are LSB…
No evidence for small disk-like bulges in a sample of late-type spirals
L. Costantin, J. Méndez-Abreu, E. M. Corsini +4
About 20% of low-redshift galaxies are late-type spirals with a small or no bulge component. Although they are the simplest disk galaxies in terms of structure and dynamics, the ro…
Deep spectroscopy in nearby galaxy clusters: III Orbital structure of galaxies in Abell 85
J. A. L. Aguerri, I. Agulli, A. Diaferio +1
Galaxies in clusters are strongly affected by their environment. They evolve according to several physical mechanisms that are active in clusters. Their efficiency can strongly dep…
Deep spectroscopy of nearby galaxy clusters: II. The Hercules cluster
I. Agulli, J. A. L. Aguerri, A. Diaferio +2
We carried out the deep spectroscopic observations of the nearby cluster A2151 with AF2/WYFFOS@WHT. The caustic technique enables us to identify 360 members brighter than $M_r = -1…
