Profiles and Some Dynamic Parameters of a Layered Inhomogeneous Elliptical Galaxy

Several new models of a layered inhomogeneous elliptical galaxy (EG) having the shape either a triaxial ellipsoid or an oblate or prolate spheroid and consisting of baryonic mass and dark matter with different laws of density distribution—profiles. Based on these models, some key dynamic parameters of the EG were determined: gravitational (potential) energy and rotational kinetic energy, total surface brightness, total luminosity, and velocity dispersion depending on the distance to the EG center. The relationships between the important dynamic parameters of the galaxy have been established: “mass–dimensions”, “mass–velocity dispersion”, “size–dispersion speeds–luminosity” (surface brightness). Evolutionary scenarios for the formation of EG were studied according to these models. The results obtained were applied to sixty model EGs with parameters exactly matching those that actually exist and are presented in the form of tables.
