APOD – dust lane Knapp (1999) – connects cold gas and dust Ellipticals: originally no observed cold gas – hot (10 6 - 10 7 K) ionised gas – dust destroyed in situ (sputtering) (EINSTEIN, ROSAT, ASCA observations) Adding some stardust Nicky Agius Jeremiah Horrocks Institute, UCLan

Planck Function: ISM Emission Radio = cold neutral gas FIR/sub-mm = cold dust MIR = warm dust Optical/UV = stellar light = HII emission X-ray = hot ionised gas Hartigan, Palmer & Cleeves (2012)

Nicky Agius Jeremiah Horrocks Institute, UCLan Hierarchical Formation? Georgakakis et al (2001) – dust masses don’t come from old stars Scenario: Elliptical with no interactions within sputtering timescale ≈ 10 7 – 10 8 years = no dust!! Questions: E’s with significant dust masses not yet achieved massive end-stage Elliptical status? Can dust be used as a smoking gun? Shabala et al (2012) – dusty ETGs have higher SFRs

Problems with isothermal fitting 1 component Try two/multi-component fitting Only outputs dust mass & temperature Fit other wavebands What if collisional heating contributes? Use dust templates Nicky Agius Jeremiah Horrocks Institute, UCLan

Preliminary Results Nicky AgiusLunchtime Talk – St-AndrewsJeremiah Horrocks Institute

In Conclusion Nicky Agius Jeremiah Horrocks Institute, UCLan Two groups of ETGs: – 1. High M d /M , low n, blue NUV-r – 2. Low M d /M , high n, red NUV-r Suggests younger population of ETGs which will continue to evolve – but no M * diff. The geometrical distribution of dust in these ETGs could help identify how they are evolving.
