Evolutionary History of the Elliptical Galaxy NGC 1052
We have obtained Keck spectra for 16 globular clusters (GCs) associated with the merger remnant elliptical NGC 1052, as well as a long-slit spectrum of the galaxy. We derive ages, metallicities and abundance ratios from simple stellar population models using the methods of Proctor & Sansom (2002), applied to extragalactic GCs for the first time. A number of GCs indicate the presence of strong b...
متن کاملDense Plasma Torus in the GPS Galaxy NGC 1052
We report results from nearly simultaneous pentachromatic VLBI observations towards a nearby GPS galaxy NGC 1052. The observations at 1.6 and 4.8 GHz with VSOP, and at 2.3, 8.4, and 15.4 GHz with VLBA, provide linear resolutions of ∼ 0.1 pc. Convex spectra of a double-sided jet imply that synchrotron emission is obscured through foreground cold dense plasma, in terms of free–free absorption (FF...
متن کاملEmission from the Prototypical LINER Galaxy NGC 1052
We examine the 0.1 to 10.0 keV X-ray spectrum of the bright nuclear LINER galaxy NGC 1052, one of two elliptical galaxies known to contain a luminous H2O maser. The observed 2.0 − 10.0 keV spectrum is unusually flat (photon index Γ ∼ 0.2) and best described as intrinsically power-law shaped nuclear flux that is either (1) attenuated by a complex absorber with ∼ 70% of the nuclear flux absorbed ...

متن کاملDynamics of the Boxy Elliptical Galaxy NGC 1600
We use three–integral models to infer the distribution function (df) of the boxy E3-E4 galaxy NGC 1600 from surface brightness and line profile data on the minor and major axes. We assume axisymmetry and that the mass-to-light ratio is constant in the central ∼ 1Re. Stars in the resulting gravitational potential move mainly on regular orbits. We use an approximate third integral K from perturba...
