14 Early- type galaxies No strong evidence for over- massive BHs Progression of NGC1277 For NGC 1277 See Graham et al. (2016) for a detailed galaxy decomposi3on and a BH mass deriva3on via AO- assisted Keck/OSIRIS data. See also Emsellem et al. (2013), and Walsh et al.

17 Most early- type galaxies are fast rotators containing disks. They require a b/d/etc. decomposi3on of their light. Cappellari et al. (2013, MNRAS, 432, 1862) See also Krajnovic et al. (2013, 432, 1768) and Nic Sco\ et al. (2014, MNRAS, 441, 274). The changing face of galaxies 17

Stellar Populations in the Galaxy Stellar Populations in the Galaxy Stars are fish in the sea of the galaxy, and like fish they often travel in schools. Star clusters are relatively small groupings, the true schools are stellar populations.
