  • NGC 1436: the making of a lenticular galaxy in the Fornax Cluster
    We study the evolutionary path of the Fornax Cluster galaxy NGC 1436, which is known to be currently transitioning from a spiral into a lenticular morphology. This galaxy hosts an inner star-forming disc and an outer quiescent disc, and we analyse data from the MeerKAT Fornax Survey, ALMA, and the Fornax 3D survey to study the interstellar medium

  • Multiwavelength observations of the extraordinary accretion event AT2021lwx
    We present observations from X-ray to mid-infrared wavelengths of the most energetic non-quasar transient ever observed, AT2021lwx. Our data show a single optical brightening by a factor >100 to a luminosity of 7 × 10 45 erg s -1 and a total radiated energy of 1.5 × 10 53 erg, both greater than any known optical transient. The decline is smooth and

  • M31N 2008-12a, the Unique Recurrent Nova in Andromeda: A Quick Look at the 2022 Eruption
    M31N 2008-12a, located in the Andromeda galaxy (M31), is the best studied recurrent nova. It presents periodic outbursts with about one year between eruptions. However, the annual eruption date varies from year to year. In order to discover the annual eruption and facilitate the multi-wavelength follow-up, a monitoring campaign with nightly cadence

  • Long-term optical spectral monitoring of a changing-look active galactic nucleus NGC 3516. II. Broad-line profile variability
    Context. We analyze the broad Hβ line profile variability of a "changing look" active galactic nucleus (CL-AGN) NGC 3516 over an extensive period of 25 years (from 1996 to 2021). The observed change in the broad line profile may indicate a change in the geometry of the broad line region (BLR). The main objective is to follow and understand the

  • LeMMINGs. VI. Connecting nuclear activity to bulge properties of active and inactive galaxies: radio scaling relations and galaxy environment
    Multiwavelength studies indicate that nuclear activity and bulge properties are closely related, but the details remain unclear. To study this further, we combine Hubble Space Telescope bulge structural and photometric properties with 1.5 GHz, e-MERLIN nuclear radio continuum data from the LeMMINGs survey for a large sample of 173 'active' galaxies

  • LeMMINGs. V. Nuclear activity and bulge properties: A detailed multi-component decomposition of e-MERLIN Palomar galaxies with HST
    We used high-resolution HST imaging and e-MERLIN 1.5-GHz observations of galaxy cores from the LeMMINGs survey to investigate the relation between optical structural properties and nuclear radio emission for a large sample of galaxies. We performed accurate, multi-component decompositions of new surface brightness profiles extracted from HST images
