The SAURON Project - XIV. No escape from V-esc: a global and local parameter in early-type galaxy evolution

We present the results of an investigation of the local escape velocity (Vesc) - line strength index relationship for 48 early-type galaxies from the SAURON sample, the first such study based on a large sample of galaxies with both detailed integral field observations and extensive dynamical modelli...
