PJE Peebles, B Ratra - Reviews of modern physics, 2003 - APS
Physics welcomes the idea that space contains energy whose gravitational effect approximates that of Einstein's cosmological constant, Λ; today the concept is termed dark …
We study the volume-limited and nearly mass-selected (stellar mass M stars≳ 6× 109 M⊙) ATLAS3D sample of 260 early-type galaxies (ETGs, ellipticals Es and lenticulars S0s). We …
We present a full-sky 100 μ m map that is a reprocessed composite of the COBE/DIRBE and IRAS/ISSA maps, with the zodiacal foreground and confirmed point sources removed …

We describe a correlation between the mass M bh of a galaxy's central black hole and the luminosity-weighted line-of-sight velocity dispersion σ e within the half-light radius. The …

We study the growth of massive galaxies from z= 2 to the present using data from the NOAO/Yale NEWFIRM Medium Band Survey. The sample is selected at a constant number …
L Ferrarese, H Ford - Space Science Reviews, 2005 - Springer
This review discusses the current status of supermassive black hole research, as seen from a purely observational standpoint. Since the early '90s, rapid technological advances, most …

We report data for I-band surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) magnitudes,(VI) colors, and distance moduli for 300 galaxies. The survey contains E, S0, and early-type spiral galaxies …
We analyze Hubble Space Telescope surface-brightness profiles of 61 elliptical galaxies and spiral bulges (hot galaxies). Luminous hot galaxies have cuspy cores with steep outer …
We present absorption-line strengths on the Lick/IDS line-strength system of 381 galaxies and 38 globular clusters in the 4000–6400 Å region. All galaxies were observed at Lick …
