Abstract:
We investigate the well-known correlations between the dynamical rnass-to-light ratio M/L and other global observables of elliptical (E) arid lenticular (S0) galaxies. We construct two-integral Jeans and three-integral Schwarzschild dynamical models for a sample of 25 E/S0 galaxies with SAURON integral-field stellar kinematics to about one effective (half-light) radius Re. The comparison of the dynamical M/L with the (M/L)pop inferred from the analysis of the stellar population, indicates that dark matter in early-type galaxies contributes ∼30% of the total mass inside one Re, in agreement with previous studies, with significant variations from galaxy to galaxy. Our results suggest a variation in M/L at constant (M/L)pop, which seems to be linked to the galaxy dynamics. We speculate that fast rotating galaxies have lower dark matter fractions than the slow rotating and generally more massive ones. © EAS, EDP Sciences 2006.Jet-dominated advective systems: radio and X-ray luminosity dependence on the accretion rate
