Internal kinematics and stellar populations of early-type galaxies in the Fornax cluster
Abstract
We present a study of the internal kinematics and stellar populations of early-type galaxies in the Fornax cluster. 10 galaxies in a luminosity range of −21.8≤MB≤−17.4 were observed with the integral field units (IFU) of Gemini South GMOS and VLT-VIMOS. Velocity maps and age-metallicity diagrams are presented for NGC 1404 and NGC 1419.
