Abstract:	摘要： The dynamics of an elliptical galaxy within a couple of effective radii can be probed effectively by stars. However, at larger distances planetary nebulae (PNe) replace stars as the tracer of the dynamics. Making use of the motion of PNe, Romanowsky et al. measured the dynamics of three luminous elliptical galaxies (NGC821, NGC3379 and NGC4494) at large distances from the galactic centre. They found that little dark matter is needed up to six effective radii. Milgrom & Sanders showed that this result can be understood in the framework of MOdified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND). As more data are available in the past decade, we revisit this problem. We combine PNe data (up to six to eight effective radii) and stellar data from SAURON of seven elliptical galaxies, including those three galaxies in Romanowsky et al. with updated data and four other galaxies which have not been analysed before. We conclude that the dynamics of these galaxies can be well explained by MOND. 出版者： London: Oxford University Press 出版日期： 2016-10-11 出處： Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016-10, Vol.462 (1), p.1092-1100 資源來源： Alma/SFX Local Collection 版權： 2016 The Authors Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society 2016 版權： Copyright Oxford University Press, UK Oct 11, 2016 識別號： ISSN: 0035-8711 識別號： ISSN: 1365-8711 識別號： ISSN: 1365-2966 識別號： EISSN: 1365-2966 識別號： DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stw1697
