Our main goal is to find and calibrate new near-infrared spectral indices along the Hubble sequence of galaxies which will be used to obtain additional constraints to the population analysis based on medium resolution integrated spectra of galaxies. Spectra of previously studied and well understood galaxies with relatively simple stellar populations (e.g., ellipticals or bulge dominated galaxies) are needed to provide a baseline data set for spectral synthesis models. X-Shooter spectra spanning the optical and infrared wavelength (350-2400nm) of bright nearby elliptical galaxies with resolving power R~4000-5400 were obtained. Heliocentric systemic velocity, velocity dispersion and Mg, Fe and H{beta} line-strength indices are presented. We present a library of very high quality spectra of galaxies covering a large range of age, metallicity and morphological type. Such as a dataset of spectra will be crucial to address important questions of the modern investigation concerning galaxy formation and evolution.2019A&A...621A..60Fhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/621/A60CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicehttps://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/621/A60https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/621/A60http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/621/A60https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/621/A60https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/621/A60http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/621/A60GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/A+A/621/A60/list (List of spectra)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/621/A60/list?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/621/A60/list?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/621/A60/list?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true22.8365-6.86805560.0055555555555555566/17605 17612 22746 22826 26803 27458 27515 27604 27725 35316 35925 36332 40514 46491https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/A+A/621/A60?format=asciiOpticalInfrareddefaultJ/A+A/621/A60/listList of spectrasizeSize of FITS fileKibytephys.size;meta.fitsintrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
