Axisymmetric dynamical models are constructed for 37 bright elliptical galaxies for which high-quality photometrical, and both major and minor axis kinematical data are available in the literature. The models are of the type used previously by Binney, Davies & Illingworth and van der Marel, Binney & Davies. The projected kinematics are predicted from the observed surface photometry, assuming a constant mass-tolight ratio, and a velocity ellipsoid with |ᵣ=. e f=f (E, Lₙ) |.
Roeland P. van der Marel (Sun,) studied this question.
