摘要
Planetary Nebulae (PNe) have enabled mass-to-light ratios (M/L) in early-type galaxies to be constrained to unprecedented distance from the center, showing in some cases clear evidence of increasing M/L, in other cases fairly constant M/L. We combine the information obtained from PN kinematics with radially extended long-slit spectroscopy data in order to constrain the M/L trends in a heterogeneous sample of early-type galaxies. We discuss whether these trends are expected in the Lambda CDM framework of galaxy formation.
