We present the kinematics and stellar population properties of a sample of 53 galaxies (50 are Early-Type galaxies, ETGs) with Counter-Rotating Disks (CRD) extracted from a sample of about 4000 galaxies of all morphological types in the MaNGA survey (DR16). The kinematic maps were used to select galaxies based on evidence of counter-rotation in the velocity maps or two peaks in the velocity dispersion maps. For about 1/3 of the sample, the counter-rotating components can also be separated spectroscopically. We then produced the age and metallicity maps, and compared the stellar population properties to those of the general ETGs population. We found that CRDs have similar trends in age and metallicity, but they are generally less metallic at low masses. The metallicity gradients are similar; instead, age gradients are typically flatter and confined within a smaller range of values. We compared the velocity fields of the ionized gas and the stars, and found that in 25 cases the gas corotates with either the inner (13 cases) or the outer (12 cases) disk, and in 9 cases the gaseous and stellar disks are misaligned. With one exception, all misaligned cases have stellar masses less than $3 times 10^{10}$M$_odot$. We also compared stellar and gaseous disks with age maps and found that in most cases the gas corotates with the younger disk. We looked for evidences of multimodality in the stellar populations, and found it in 25 galaxies, plus 11 cases with evidences of ongoing star formation, and the latter are the youngest and least massive galaxies; 13 galaxies, instead, exhibit unimodality, and are the oldest and most massive CRDs. As a general result, our work supports different formation scenarios for the kinematic class of counter-rotators.
Bars in galaxies are thought to stimulate both inflow of material and radial mixing along them. Observational evidence for this mixing has been inconclusive so far however, limiting the evaluation of the impact of bars on galaxy evolution. We now use
We present the first asymmetric drift (AD) measurements for unresolved stellar populations of different characteristic ages above and below 1.5 Gyr. These measurements sample the age-velocity relation (AVR) in galaxy disks. In this first paper we dev
We present a spectral decomposition technique that separates the contribution of different kinematic components in galaxies from the observed spectrum. This allows to study the kinematics and properties of the stellar populations of the individual co
We study the properties of 66 galaxies with kinematically misaligned gas and stars from MaNGA survey. The fraction of kinematically misaligned galaxies varies with galaxy physical parameters, i.e. M*, SFR and sSFR. According to their sSFR, we further
