Abstract

In the companion Paper XV of this series, we derive accurate total mass-to-light ratios (M/L) JAM ≈ (M/L)(r = R e ) within a sphere of radius r = R e centred on the galaxy, as well as stellar (M/L) stars (with the dark matter removed) for the volume-limited and nearly massselected (stellar mass M 6 × 10 9 M ) ATLAS 3D sample of 260 early-type galaxies (ETGs, ellipticals Es and lenticulars S0s).Here, we use those parameters to study the two orthogonal projections (M JAM , σ e ) and (M JAM , R maj e ) of the thin Mass Plane (MP) (M JAM , σ e , R maj e ) which describes the distribution of the galaxy population, where M JAM ≡ L × (M/L) JAM ≈ M .The distribution of galaxy properties on both projections of the MP is characterized by: (i) the same zone of exclusion (ZOE), which can be transformed from one projection to the other using the scalar virial equation.The ZOE is roughly described by two power laws, joined by a break at a characteristic mass M JAM ≈ 3 × 10 10 M , which corresponds to the minimum R e and maximum stellar density.This results in a break in the mean M JAM -σ e relation with trends M JAM ∝ σ 2.3 e and M JAM ∝ σ 4.7 e at small and large σ e , respectively; (ii) a characteristic mass M JAM ≈ 2 × 10 11 M which separates a population dominated by flat fast rotator with discs

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
