We present minor axis, offset major axis and one diagonal
long slit spectra for 10 E and S0 galaxies of the Coma cluster drawn
from a magnitude-limited sample studied before. We derive rotation
curves, velocity dispersion profiles and the H3 and H4
coefficients of the Hermite decomposition of the line of sight
velocity distribution. Moreover, we derive the line index profiles of
Mg, Fe and H line indices and assess their errors. The data
will be used to construct dynamical models of the galaxies and study
their stellar populations.
