An evolutionary disc model of the edge - on galaxy NGC 5907
Context. We present an evolutionary disc model of the edge-on galaxy NGC 5907 based on a continuous star formation history and a continuous dynamical heating of the stellar subpopulations. Aims. This model explains in a natural way the two observational facts falling somewhat apart: 1) the exponential vertical disc structure in the optical and NIR of the non-obscured part of the stellar disc an...
متن کاملEnormous disc of cool gas surrounding the nearby powerful radio galaxy NGC 612 ( PKS 0131 - 36 )
We present the detection of an enormous disc of cool neutral hydrogen (H I) gas surrounding the S0 galaxy NGC 612, which hosts one of the nearest powerful radio sources (PKS 0131-36). Using the Australia Telescope Compact Array, we detect MHI = 1.8 × 10 9M⊙ of H I emission-line gas that is distributed in a 140 kpc wide disc-like structure along the optical disc and dust-lane of NGC 612. The bul...
متن کاملSubmillimetre maps of the edge - on galaxy NGC 891
Broadband continuum images of the edge-on galaxy NGC 891 at 850 µm and 450 µm are presented. These images are very similar to the 1300µm and CO line images. With respect to the 850µm continuum, CO is strongest in the socalled molecular ring', and weakest at the largest radii sampled. Inside the molecular ring, the CO/850µm ratio is somewhat less than in the ring, but higher than in the remainde...
متن کاملThick Disks of Lenticular Galaxies ⋆ 3 D - photometric thin / thick disk decomposition of eight edge - on S 0 galaxies
Thick disks are faint and extended stellar components found around several disk galaxies including our Milky Way. The Milky Way thick disk, the only one studied in detail, contains mostly old disk stars (≈ 10 Gyr), so that thick disks are likely to trace the early stages of disk evolution. Previous detections of thick disk stellar light in external galaxies have been originally made for early-t...
متن کاملThe lenticular galaxy NGC 3607 : stellar population , metallicity and ionised gas
Context. The investigation of the dominant formation mechanism of early-type galaxies. Aims. In this work we derive clues to the formation scenario and ionisation source of the lenticular galaxy NGC3607 by means of metallicity gradients, stellar population and emission lines properties. Methods. We work with long-slit spectroscopy from which we (i) study the radial distribution of the equivalen...
