The optical rest-frame sizes of 10 of the most massive (~5 × 1011h-270Msolar) galaxies found in the near-infrared MUNICS survey at 1.2 z 1.7 are analysed...

Extremely metal-poor galaxies (XMPGs), defined as having metallicities below 10% of the solar value, are considered possible local analogs to primordial systems...

We have analyzed bibliographical observational data and theoretical predictions, in order to probe the environment in which extremely metal-poor dwarf galaxies...

Context. Extremely metal-poor (XMP) galaxies are chemically, and possibly dynamically, primordial objects in the local Universe. Aims: Our objective is to...

We present the results of a dedicated search for extremely metal-poor stars in the Fornax, Sculptor, and Sextans dSphs. Five stars were selected from two...

We present RIJHK imaging of seven radio galaxies from the 7C Redshift Survey (7CRS) which lack strong emission lines and we use these data to investigate their...

The nearly face-on spiral galaxy NGC 3938 has been observed in the H_alpha line with the TAURUS II Fabry-Perot interferometer at the William Herschel Telescope...

We present two dimensional kinematic observations at high angular and velocity resolution measured via the Hα emission line in the active barred spiral NGC 6951...
