Abstract

AbstractWe present the 2D kinematics of the nuclear region of the double-nucleated low-luminosity elliptical galaxy IC 225. Observations with the GMOS-N IFU at Gemini Observatory show a large amount of metal-rich gas coincident with the off-center nucleus. However, preliminary kinematics analysis indicates that the velocity of the stars in the off-center nucleus is distinct from that of the gas at the same position. Therefore, this is an intriguing example of how the formation of a nucleus or bulge may be occurring in a low-luminosity elliptical galaxy.
