Nuclear stellar discs in low-luminosity elliptical galaxies: NGC 4458 and NGC 4478
We present the detection of nuclear stellar discs in the low-luminosity elliptical galaxies NGC 4458 and NGC 4478, which are known to host a kinematically-decoupled core. Using archival HST imaging, and available absorption line-strength index data based on ground-based spectroscopy, we investigate...
