The dark and bright sides of massive early-type galaxies
Massive early-type galaxies constitute an ideal test bed to probe our understanding of galaxy formation and evolution. Their high mass, spheroidal morphology...
The Large Early Galaxy Astrophysics Census (LEGA-C) Data Release 3: 3000 High-quality Spectra of K<SUB>s</SUB>-selected Galaxies at z > 0.6
We present the third and final data release of the Large Early Galaxy Astrophysics Census (LEGA-C), an ESO/Very Large Telescope public spectroscopic survey...
The multiple routes of galaxy transformation across the cosmic epochs
In the local universe most of the stellar mass is in passive galaxies, where star formation isabsent or at very low levels. Understanding what are the...
The non-homology - star-formation connection: hints for the solution of the FP problem
We present the K band FP of the ETGs members of the clusters observed by the WINGS survey. The data confirm a different tilt of the FP with respect to the V...
The SAURON Survey of Early-Type Galaxies in the Nearby Universe
The aim of the SAURON collaboration, and the reason for building the instrument, is to study a representative sample of nearby ellipticals, lenticulars and...
The SAURON survey has revised our view of early type galaxies discovering that central disks and multiple kinematic components are common; 75% of the sample...
