The fundamental plane of radio galaxies ⋆
We collected photometrical and dynamical data for 73 low red-shift (z<0.2) Radio Galaxies (LzRG) in order to study their Fundamental Plane (FP). For 22 sources we also present new velocity dispersion data, that complement the photometric data given in our previous study of LzRG (Govoni et. al. 2000a). It is found that the FP of LzRG is similar to the one defined by non-active elliptical galaxie...
متن کاملThe Fundamental Plane of Cluster Elliptical Galaxies
Using deep Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys imaging and Very Large Telescope FOcal Reducer/low dispersion Spectrograph 2 spectra, we determined the velocity dispersions, effective radii, and surface brightnesses for four early-type galaxies in the cluster RDCS 1252.9 2927. All four galaxies are massive, z p 1.237 greater than . These four galaxies, combined with three from RDC...
متن کاملThe fundamental plane of EDisCS galaxies
We study the evolution of spectral early-type galaxies in clusters, groups, and the field up to redshift 0.9 using the ESO Distant Cluster Survey (EDisCS) dataset. We measure structural parameters (circularized half-luminosity radii Re, surface brightness Ie, and velocity dispersions σ) for 154 cluster and 68 field galaxies. On average, we achieve precisions of 10% in Re, 0.1 dex in log Ie, and...
متن کاملDissipation and the Fundamental Plane: Observational Tests
We develop and implement an observational test of the theoretical notion that dissipation in major mergers of gas-rich galaxies produces the fundamental plane (FP) and related correlations obeyed by ellipticals. Observations have shown that the “tilt” of the FP involves more than a simple non-homology or stellar population effect: lower-mass ellipticals have a higher ratio of stellar to dark ma...
متن کاملNear-Infrared Fundamental Plane of Elliptical Galaxies
Near-infrared (2.2 μm) observations of a sample of 48 elliptical galaxies in the Coma cluster have been carried out and used to study the near-ir fundamental plane (FP) of ellipticals in this cluster. An rms scatter of 0.072 dex was found for this relation, similar to that of its optical counterpart, using the same sample of galaxies. This corresponds to an uncertainty of 18% in distances to in...
