TL;DR: The Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) as mentioned in this paper is a second-generation VLT panoramic integral-field spectrograph currently in manufacturing, assembly and integration phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
The SAURON project – X. The orbital anisotropy of elliptical and lenticular galaxies: revisiting the (V/σ, ɛ) diagram with integral‐field stellar kinematics
Michele Cappellari,Michele Cappellari,Eric Emsellem,Roland Bacon,Martin Bureau,Roger L. Davies,P. T. de Zeeuw,Jesús Falcón-Barroso,Davor Krajnović,Harald Kuntschner,Richard M. McDermid,Reynier Peletier,Marc Sarzi,Remco C. E. van den Bosch,Glenn van de Ven,Glenn van de Ven +15 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used SAURON integral field stellar kinematics within about one effective (half-light) radius to construct the anisotropy diagram, which relates the ratio of the ordered and random motion in a galaxy (V/sigma) to its observed ellipticity (epsilon).
Journal ArticleDOI
The SAURON project. II. Sample and early results

TL;DR: The SAURON survey of the kinematics and stellar populations of a representative sample of nearby E, S0 and Sa galaxies is presented in this paper, which is aimed at determining the intrinsic shape of galaxies, their orbital structure, the mass-to-light ratio as a function of radius, the age and metallicity of the stellar populations, and the frequency of kinematically decoupled cores and nuclear black holes.

The SAURON project -- X. The orbital anisotropy of elliptical and lenticular galaxies: revisiting the (V/sigma,epsilon) diagram with integral-field stellar kinematics

TL;DR: In this paper, anisotropy (V/sigma,epsilon) diagram was constructed for the 48 E/S0 galaxies from the SAURON survey, and three integral axisymmetric Schwarzschild dynamical models were used to recover the detailed orbital distribution of E and S0 galaxies.
