    • Evidence for recent star formation in BCGs : A correspondence between blue cores and UV excess 

      Pipino, A.; Kaviraj, S.; Silk, J.; Bildfell, C.; Babul, A.; Hoekstra, H. (2009-05-01)
      We present a joint analysis of near-ultraviolet (NUV) data from the GALEX (Galaxy Evolution Explorer) mission and (optical) colour profiles for a sample of seven brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) in the Canadian Cluster ...

    • GALICS II : The [ α/Fe]-mass relation in elliptical galaxies 

      Pipino, A.; Devriendt, J.E.G.; Silk, J.; Kaviraj, S.; Thomas, D. (2009-10-03)
      Aims. We test whether the mass-and σ-[α/Fe] relations in the stellar populations of early-type galaxies can be reproduced by a cosmologically motivated assembly history for spheroids.Methods. We implement a detailed treatment ...

    • The SAURON Project – XIV. No escape from Vesc: a global and local parameter in early-type galaxy evolution 

      Scott, N.; Cappellari, M.; Davies, R.L.; Bacon, R.; de Zeeuw, P.T.; Emsellem, E.; Falcon-Barroso, J.; Krajnovic, D.; Kuntschner, H.; McDermid, R.M.; Peletier, R.F.; Pipino, A.; Sarzi, M.; van den Bosch, R.C.E.; van de Ven, G.; van Scherpenzeel, E. (2009)
      We present the results of an investigation of the local escape velocity (Vesc) - line strength index relationship for 48 early type galaxies from the SAURON sample, the first such study based on a large sample of galaxies ...
