We present the Fundamental Plane (FP) for 38 early-type galaxies in the two rich galaxy clusters RXJ0152.7-1357 (z=0.83) and RXJ1226.9+3332 (z=0.89), reaching a limiting magnitude of M_B =-19.8 mag in the rest frame of the clusters. While the zero point offset of the FP for these high redshift clusters relative to our low redshift sample is consistent with passive evolution with a formation redshift of z_form ~ 3.2, the FP for the high redshift clusters is not only shifted as expected for a mass-independent z_form, but rotated relative to the low redshift sample. Expressed as a relation between the galaxy masses and the mass-to-light ratios the FP is significantly steeper for the high redshift clusters than found at low redshift. We interpret this as a mass dependency of the star formation history, as has been suggested by other recent studies. The low mass galaxies (10^10.3 M_sun) have experienced star formation as recently as z ~ 1.35 (1.5 Gyr prior to their look back time), while galaxies with masses larger than 10^11.3 M_sun had their last major star formation episode at z > 4.5.

We present spectroscopic observations obtained at the {it Large Binocular Telescope} in the field of the cluster XLSSJ0223-0436 at $z=1.22$. We confirm 12 spheroids cluster members and determine stellar velocity dispersion for 7 of them. We combine t
hese data with those in the literature for clusters RXJ0848+4453 at $z=1.27$ (8 galaxies) and XMMJ2235-2557 at $z=1.39$ (7 galaxies) to determine the Fundamental Plane of cluster spheroids. We find that the FP at $zsim1.3$ is offset and { rotated ($sim3sigma$)} with respect to the local FP. The offset corresponds to a mean evolution $Delta$rm{log}(M$_{dyn}$/L$_B$)=(-0.5$pm$0.1)$z$. High-redshift galaxies follow a steeper mass-dependent M$_{dyn}$/L$_B$-M$_{dyn}$ relation than local ones. Assuming $Delta$ log$(M_{dyn}/L_B)$=$Delta$ log$(M^*/L_B)$, higher-mass galaxies (log(M$_{dyn}$/M$_odot$)$geq$11.5) have a higher-formation redshift ($z_fgeq$6.5) than lower-mass ones ($z_fleq$2 for log(M$_{dyn}$/M$_odot$$leq$10)), with a median $z_fsimeq2.5$ for the whole sample. Also, galaxies with higher stellar mass density host stellar populations formed earlier than those in lower density galaxies. At fixed IMF, M$_{dyn}$/M$^*$ varies systematically with mass and mass density. It follows that the evolution of the stellar populations (M$^*/L_B$) accounts for the observed evolution of M$_{dyn}/L_B$ for M$_{dyn}$$>10^{11}$ M$_odot$ galaxies, while accounts for $sim$85% of the evolution at M$_{dyn}$$<10^{11}$ M$_odot$. We find no evidence in favour of structural evolution of individual galaxies, while we find evidences that spheroids later added to the population account for the observed discrepancy at masses $<10^{11}$ M$_odot$.

We present data for 16 galaxies in the overdensity JKCS 041 at $z simeq 1.80$ as part of the K-band Multi-Object Spectrograph (KMOS) Cluster Survey (KCS). With 20-hour integrations, we have obtained deep absorption-line spectra from which we derived
velocity dispersions for seven quiescent galaxies. We combined photometric parameters derived from Hubble Space Telescope images with the dispersions to construct a fundamental plane (FP) for quiescent galaxies in JKCS 041. From the zero-point evolution of the FP, we derived a formation redshift for the galaxies of $z_{form} = 3.0pm0.3$, corresponding to a mean age of $1.4pm0.2$ Gyrs. We tested the effect of structural and velocity dispersion evolution on our FP zero point and found a negligible contribution when using dynamical mass-normalized parameters ($sim 3%$), but a significant contribution from stellar-mass-normalized parameters ($sim 42 %$). From the relative velocities of the galaxies, we probed the three-dimensional structure of these 16 confirmed members of JKCS 041, and found that a group of galaxies in the south west of the overdensity had systematically higher velocities. We derived ages for the galaxies in the different groups from the FP. We found the east-extending group had typically older galaxies ($2.1substack{+0.3-0.2}$ Gyrs), than those in the south-west group ($0.3pm0.2$ Gyrs). Although based on small numbers, the overdensity dynamics, morphology, and age results could indicate that JKCS 041 is in formation and may comprise two merging groups of galaxies. The result could link large-scale structure to ages of galaxies for the first time at this redshift.
We examine the Fundamental Plane (FP) and mass-to-light ratio ($M/L$) scaling relations using the largest sample of massive quiescent galaxies at $1.5<z<2.5$ to date. The FP ($r_{e}, sigma_{e}, I_{e}$) is established using $19$ $UVJ$ quiescent galaxi
es from COSMOS with $Hubble$ $Space$ $Telescope$ $(HST)$ $H_{F160W}$ rest-frame optical sizes and X-shooter absorption line measured stellar velocity dispersions. For a very massive, ${rm{log}}(M_{ast}/M_{odot})>11.26$, subset of 8 quiescent galaxies at $z>2$, from Stockmann et al. (2020), we show that they cannot passively evolve to the local Coma cluster relation alone and must undergo significant structural evolution to mimic the sizes of local massive galaxies. The evolution of the FP and $M/L$ scaling relations, from $z=2$ to present-day, for this subset are consistent with passive aging of the stellar population and minor merger structural evolution into the most massive galaxies in the Coma cluster and other massive elliptical galaxies from the MASSIVE Survey. Modeling the luminosity evolution from minor merger added stellar populations favors a history of merging with dry quiescent galaxies.
We present the analysis of the fundamental plane (FP) for a sample of 19 massive red-sequence galaxies ($M_{star} >4times10^{10} M_{odot}$) in 3 known overdensities at $1.39<z<1.61$ from the KMOS Cluster Survey, a guaranteed time program with spectro
scopy from the K-band Multi-Object Spectrograph (KMOS) at the VLT and imaging from the Hubble Space Telescope. As expected, we find that the FP zero-point in $B$ band evolves with redshift, from the value 0.443 of Coma to $-0.10pm0.09$, $-0.19pm0.05$, $-0.29pm0.12$ for our clusters at $z=1.39$, $z=1.46$, and $z=1.61$, respectively. For the most massive galaxies ($log M_{star}/M_{odot}>11$) in our sample, we translate the FP zero-point evolution into a mass-to-light-ratio $M/L$ evolution finding $Delta log M/L_{B}=(-0.46pm0.10)z$, $Delta log M/L_{B}=(-0.52pm0.07)z$, to $Delta log M/L_{B}=(-0.55pm0.10)z$, respectively. We assess the potential contribution of the galaxies structural and stellar velocity dispersion evolution to the evolution of the FP zero-point and find it to be $sim$6-35 % of the FP zero-point evolution. The rate of $M/L$ evolution is consistent with galaxies evolving passively. By using single stellar population models, we find an average age of $2.33^{+0.86}_{-0.51}$ Gyr for the $log M_{star}/M_{odot}>11$ galaxies in our massive and virialized cluster at $z=1.39$, $1.59^{+1.40}_{-0.62}$ Gyr in a massive but not virialized cluster at $z=1.46$, and $1.20^{+1.03}_{-0.47}$ Gyr in a protocluster at $z=1.61$. After accounting for the difference in the age of the Universe between redshifts, the ages of the galaxies in the three overdensities are consistent within the errors, with possibly a weak suggestion that galaxies in the most evolved structure are older.
We collected photometrical and dynamical data for 73 low red-shift (z<0.2) Radio Galaxies (LzRG) in order to study their Fundamental Plane (FP). For 22 sources we also present new velocity dispersion data, that complement the photometric data given i
n our previous study of LzRG (Govoni et al. 2000a). It is found that the FP of LzRG is similar to the one defined by non-active elliptical galaxies, with LzRG representing the brightest end of the population of early type galaxies. Since the FP mainly reflects the virial equilibrium condition, our result implies that the global properties of early--type galaxies (defining the FP) are not influenced by the presence of gas accretion in the central black hole. This is fully in agreement with the recent results in black hole demography, showing that virtually all luminous spheroidal galaxies host a massive black hole and therefore may potentially become active. We confirm and extend to giant ellipticals the systematic increase of the mass-to-light ratio with galaxy luminosity.
