The SAURON project - XI. Stellar Populations from Absorption Line Strength Maps of 24 Early-Type Spirals

We present absorption line strength maps of a sample of 24 representative early-type spiral galaxies, mostly of type Sa, obtained as part of the SAURON survey of nearby galaxies using our custom-built integral-field spectrograph. Using high-quality spectra, spatially binned to a constant signal-to-n...
