We confirm that regular rotators show a strong h₃ versus V/σ anti-correlation, whereas quasi-regular and non-regular rotators show a more vertical relation in h₃ and V/σ. Motivated by recent cosmological simulations, we develop an alternative approach to kinematically classify galaxies from their individual h₃ versus V/σ signatures. Within the SAMI Galaxy Survey, we identify five classes of high-order stellar kinematic signatures using Gaussian mixture models. Class 1 corresponds to slow rotators, whereas Classes 2-5 correspond to fast rotators. We find that galaxies with similar λ_Rₑ - ϵₑ values can show distinctly different h₃ - V/σ signatures. Class 5 objects are previously unidentified fast rotators that show a weak h₃ versus V/σ anti-correlation. From simulations, these objects are predicted to be disk-less galaxies formed by gas-poor mergers. From morphological examination, however, there is evidence for large stellar disks. Instead, Class 5 objects are more likely disturbed galaxies, have counter-rotating bulges, or bars in edge-on galaxies. Finally, we interpret the strong anti-correlation in h₃ versus V/σ as evidence for disks in most fast rotators, suggesting a dearth of gas-poor mergers among fast rotators.]]> Wed 20 Mar 2019 13:17:45 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47472 Mon 23 Jan 2023 11:12:30 AEDT ]]>
