The ATLAS(3D) project - XXI. Correlations between gradients of local escape velocity and stellar populations in early-type galaxies
We explore the connection between the local escape velocity, Vesc, and the stellar population properties in the ATLAS3D survey, a complete, volume-limited sample of nearby early-type galaxies. We make use of ugriz photometry to construct Multi-Gaussian Expansion models of the surface brightnesses of...
