EFAR peculiar velocities and bulk motions
Matthew Colless, R. P. Saglia, David Burstein +3
The EFAR project has measured peculiar motions in two distant volumes of the universe using Fundamental Plane (FP) distances for 85 clusters with cz=6000-15000 km/s. The scatter in…
Elliptical Galaxy Dynamics: The Issues Pertaining to Galaxy Formation
David Burstein
How elliptical galaxy dynamics relate to galaxy structure, stellar populations, spiral galaxies and environment are reviewed. The evidence assembled shows that most, if not all, ga…
A Re-Examination of the Origins of the Peculiar Velocity Field Within the Local Supercluster
David Burstein
The recent re-evaulation of the peculiar velocity field outside the Local Supercluster (Dekel et al. 1999, ApJ 522) has permitted a re-examination of the origins of the peculiar ve…
Deep Intermediate-Band Surface Photometry of NGC 5907
BATC Collaboration, Z. Y. Zheng, Z. H. Shang +3
We obtained very deep exposures of NGC 5907 with a Schmidt telescope, large-format CCD, and intermediate-band filters centered at 6660A and 8020A. These two filters, part of a 15-f…
Central UV Spikes in two Galactic Spheroids
Michele Cappellari, Francesco Bertola, David Burstein +3
FOS spectra and FOC photometry of two centrally located, UV-bright spikes in the elliptical galaxy NGC 4552 and the bulge-dominated early spiral NGC 2681, are presented. These spec…
Objects in NGC 205 Resolved into Stellar Associations by HST Ultraviolet Imaging
Michele Cappellari, Francesco Bertola, David Burstein +3
We have obtained high resolution UV images with the HST+WFPC2 of the central region of the dwarf elliptical galaxy NGC 205. Our images reveal that many of the hot UV stars previous…
