Dynamics of Early-Type Galaxies
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 August 2017
Extract
The form of the velocity and velocity dispersion profiles in elliptical galaxies, and their implications for anisotropy and mass-to-light ratio changes in ellipticals are discussed. Recent results on the luminosity dependence of the rotational properties of ellipticals are summarized, as are questions concerning the shapes of ellipticals. The relation of bulges to ellipticals, in the light of these new data, is considered.
