Understanding the Fundamental Plane and the Tully Fisher Relation
The relation between early type galaxy size, surface brightness and velocity dispersion, “the fundamental plane,” has long been understood as resulting from equilibrium in their largely pressure supported stellar dynamics. The dissipation and feedback involved in reaching such an equilibrium through...
