The VLT-VIMOS Mask Preparation Software
D. Bottini, B. Garilli, D. Maccagni +34
VIMOS (VIsible Multi-Object Spectrograph) is a multi-object imaging spectrograph installed at the VLT (Very large Telescope) at the ESO (European Southern Observatory) Paranal Obse…
VVDS: early results on LSS distribution to z~1.5
O. Le Fèvre, G. Vettolani, D. Maccagni +2
The VIMOS VLT Deep Survey (VVDS) is an on-going program to map the evolution of galaxies, large scale structures and AGNs from the redshift measurement of more than 100000 objects…
Early-type Galaxy Halo Dynamics inferred using the PN Spectrograph
N. G. Douglas, A. J. Romanowsky, K. Kuijken +6
A new instrument is providing crucial data with which to probe the structure of dark halos in elliptical galaxies.
Elliptical Galaxies: Darkly Cloaked or Scantily Clad?
A. J. Romanowsky, N. G. Douglas, K. Kuijken +7
Planetary nebulae (PNe) may be the most promising tracers in the halos of early-type galaxies. We have used multi-object spectrographs on the WHT and the VLT, and the new Planetary…
Is there a dichotomy in the Dark Matter as well as in the Baryonic Matter properties of ellipticals?
N. R. Napolitano, M. Capaccioli, M. Arnaboldi +5
We have found a correlation betwen the M/L global gradients and the structural parameters of the luminous components of a sample of 19 early-type galaxies. Such a correlation suppo…
Intracluster Stellar Population
Magda Arnaboldi
I shall review the latest results for the presence of diffuse light in nearby clusters, and the evidence of ongoing star formation in an intracluster Virgo field. I shall discuss h…
