The Total Mass of the Early-Type Galaxy NGC 4649 (M60)

In this paper the problem of the total mass and the total mass-to-light ratio of the early-type galaxy NGC~4649 (M60) is analyzed. Use is made of two independent techniques: the X-ray methodology which is based on the temperature of the X-ray halo of NGC~4649 and the tracer mass estimator (TME) whi...
