The nature and origin of disky elliptical galaxies
The observational trend that disky elliptical galaxies exhibit younger luminosity- weighted ages than boxy ellipticals is investigated. The presence of a possible young stellar disk embedded in these galaxies is explored by comparing kinematics derived from the near-infrared Calcium II triplet (arou...
