Population-orbit model of NGC 1380. Panel a: deep r-band image of NGC 1380 from the FDS with the VLT Survey Telescope (Iodice et al. 2019a). The three squares indicate the three pointings, each with a 1′ × 1′ square field-of-view, of spectroscopic observations with the VLT MUSE instrument. The black dashed ellipse corresponds to the isophote at μ_B = 25 mag arcsec⁻². Panel b: data from the VLT/MUSE observations (first column), the best fitting population-orbit model (second column), and the residuals of the data minus model divided by the observational errors (third column). From top to bottom: surface brightness, mean velocity, velocity dispersion, GH coefficients h₃ and h₄, and the light-weighted age and metallicity maps of the stars in NGC 1380. We note that kinematic maps were derived from spectra binned with a different scheme than the age and metallicity maps.
