Abstract: We study the origin of the scaling relations of early-type galaxies (ETGs) by constructing detailed models of the stellar dynamics for the K-band selected, volume-limited ATLAS3D sample of 263 nearby ETGs, spanning a large range of masses and stellar velocity dispersions (60 < sigma < 350 km/s).<br />Comment: 1 page, no figures, LaTeX.
