A simple kinematic modeling for flattened S0 galaxies.

LOYER E., SIMIEN F., MICHARD R. and PRUGNIEL P.

Abstract (from CDS):

We present mass models for three S0 galaxies with a strong disk component observed almost on edge (NGC 2732, NGC 4111, and NGC 4350). For the analytical representation of the surface-brightness distribution, the method of Multi- Gaussian Expansion, first presented by Monnet et al. (MBE92, 1992A&A...253..366M) is applied to V-band surface photometry. A simplified dynamical model is adopted, and the calculated kinematic profiles are compared to long-slit spectroscopic data; overall agreement is reached, except for the innermost region, where additional mass is needed for all three galaxies. We discuss possible applications.
