DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stab536
Abstract: We investigate the internal structure of elliptical galaxies at $z\sim 0.2$ from a joint lensing-dynamics analysis. We model Hubble Space Telescope images of a sample of 23 galaxy-galaxy lenses selected from the Sloan Lens ACS… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stad1124
Abstract: One of the most protracted problems in astronomy has been understanding the evolution of galaxy morphology. Much discussion has surrounded how lenticular galaxies may form a bridging population between elliptical and spiral galaxies. However, with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stx2030
Abstract: We present significantly improved measurements of turbulent velocities in the hot gaseous haloes of nearby giant elliptical galaxies. Using deep XMM-Newton Reflection Grating Spectrometer (RGS) observations and a combination of resonance scattering and direct line… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stz3068
Abstract: We use high-resolution hydrodynamical simulations run with the EAGLE model of galaxy formation to study the differences between the properties of – and subsequently the lensing signal from – subhaloes of massive elliptical galaxies at… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevd.95.063020
Abstract: After thirty years of the discovery of the fundamental plane, explanations to the tilt of the fundamental plane with respect to the virial plane still suffer from the need of fine-tuning. In this paper, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.17576/jsm-2022-5109-25
Abstract: We investigated the star formation rates (SFRs) of selected elliptical galaxies using the infrared data from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). The elliptical galaxies were selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) MPA-JHU… read more here.
