A magnitude limited sample of nearly 9000 early-type galaxies, in the redshift range 0.01 < z < 0.3, was selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey using morphological and spectral criteria. The Fundamental Plane relation in this sample is R_o ~ sigma^{1.49pm 0.05} I_o^{-0.75pm 0.01} in the r* band. It is approximately the same in the g*, i* and z* bands. Relative to the population at the median redshift in the sample, galaxies at lower and higher redshifts have evolved only little. If the Fundamental Plane is used to quantify this evolution then the apparent magnitude limit can masquerade as evolution; once this selection effect has been accounted for, the evolution is consistent with that of a passively evolving population which formed the bulk of its stars about 9 Gyrs ago. One of the principal advangtages of the SDSS sample over previous samples is that the galaxies in it lie in environments ranging from isolation in the field to the dense cores of clusters. The Fundamental Plane shows that galaxies in dense regions are slightly different from galaxies in less dense regions.
We analyse the Fundamental Plane (FP) relation of $39,993$ early-type galaxies (ETGs) in the optical (griz) and $5,080$ ETGs in the Near-Infrared (YJHK) wavebands, forming an optical$+$NIR sample of $4,589$ galaxies. We focus on the analysis of the F
Here we present new measurements of effective radii, surface brightnesses and internal velocity dispersions for 23 isolated early-type galaxies. The photometric properties are derived from new multi-colour imaging of 10 galaxies, whereas the central
Three observables of early-type galaxies - size ($r_{e}$), surface brightness ($I_{e}$), and velocity dispersion ($sigma_{0}$) - form a tight planar correlation known as the fundamental plane (FP), which has provided great insights into the galaxy fo
We present a complete analysis of the Fundamental Plane of early-type galaxies (ETGs) in the nearby universe. The sample, as defined in paper I, comprises 39,993 ETGs located in environments covering the entire domain in local density (from field to
