Data Access
The MaNGA DynPop catalogues are publicly available, including (1) the stellar dynamical properties and (2) the stellar population and star-formation history properties for over 10000 galaxies from MaNGA survey.
The stellar dynamical properties are obtained using the well-established Jeans Anisotropic Modelling (JAM) method (Cappellari 2008; Cappellari 2020).
The stellar population and star-formation history properties are obtained from the stellar population synthesis (SPS) method using the Penalized Pixel-Fitting software (pPXF; Cappellari&Emsellem 2004; Cappellari 2017; Cappellari 2023).
If you use any data below, you are requested to cite the paper in the section where the link to the data is given.Paper I and Paper V
NOTE: The JAM catalogue has been updated to v2 (on 2026.02.06) to include two additional PL models (the power-law models from PaperV).
The updated JAM catalogue file SDSSDR17_MaNGA_JAM_v2.fits and the data model file SDSSDR17_MaNGA_JAM_v2_datamodel.pdf can be downloaded from zenodo. No changes are made for the original models: the mass-follows-light (MFL), NFW, fixedNFW, gNFW models. Please cite PaperI if you use the mass-follows-light (MFL), NFW, fixedNFW, gNFW models and PaperV if you use the PL models.
The supplementary files including the MGE models and the mass profiles have been released in PaperVII (see below).
Paper II
NOTE: The SP catalogue has been updated to v2 (on 2025.06.26) to fix three incorrectively saved parameters (“delta_Map”, “Fred_tot_Map”, “Fred_gal_Map”) and include two additional parameters (“chi2_Re”, “chi2_Map”).
The updated stellar population (SP) and star-formation history (SFH) catalogue (DynPop2_SP_SFH_v2.hdf5), the catalogue documentation (DynPop2_catalogue_documentation.pdf), an example PYTHON script for reading the catalogue (DynPop2_reading_script.py), and a Jupyter Notebook with tutorials on how to use this catalogue (DynPop2-Tutorial.ipynb) can be downloaded from zenodo.
Paper VII
All data derived from the stellar dynamical models including 3D mass distributions (mass density profiles), 2D mass distributions (surface mass density maps), and circular velocity curves will be released. One can use the MGE coefficients and best-fitting free parameters taken from the catalogues (PaperI and PaperV) to derive the mass distributions of stellar, dark matter, and total components. The database and a Python script for the calculation can be downloaded from zenodo. Please also cite PaperVII if you use the Pyhton script to calculate the mass distributions.
