Fundamental Plane of Elliptical Galaxies in f(R) Gravity: The Role of Luminosity

The global properties of elliptical galaxies are connected through the so-called fundamental plane of ellipticals, which is an empirical relation between their parameters: effective radius, central velocity dispersion and mean surface brightness within the effective radius. We investigated the relat...
