Stellar mass estimates in early-type galaxies: procedures, uncertainties and models dependence

The aim of the present paper is to quantify the dependence of the estimates of luminosities and stellar mass content of early-type galaxies on the different models and model parameters which can be used to analyse the observational data. The paper is organized in two parts. The first one analyses the dependence of the $\mathcal M/\mathcal...更多
