Stellar velocity profiles and line strengths out to four effective radii in the early-type galaxies NGC 3379 and 821
We use the integral-field spectrograph SAURON to measure the stellar line-of-sight velocity distribution and absorption line strengths out to four effective radii (Re) in the early-type galaxies NGC 3379 and 821. With our newly developed observing technique, we can now probe these faint regions in g...
