Abstract

Aims. Whereas the evolution of gas kinematics of massive galaxies is now relatively well established up to redshift z 3, little is known about the kinematics of lower mass (M 10 10 M ) galaxies. We use MUSE, a powerful wide-field, optical integral-field spectrograph (IFS) recently mounted on the VLT, to characterize this galaxy population at intermediate redshift.
