Additional information

I initiated the idea of observing a complete volume limited survey of ETGs. I contributed the analysis of isophote shape as well as the comparison of the ATLAS-3D sample in the lambda_R vs, ellipticity plane with a notional distribution of inclined disks to show that it is a reasonable representation of the fast rotator population.
