The propagation of a shock wave into a medium is expected to heat the material beyond the shock, producing noticeable effects in intensity line ratios such as...
Unveiling the (in)consistencies among the galaxy stellar mass function, star formation histories, satellite abundances, and intracluster light from a semi-empirical perspective
In a hierarchical, dark matter-dominated Universe, stellar mass functions (SMFs), galaxy merger rates, star formation histories (SFHs), satellite abundances...
Unveiling the 100 pc scale nuclear radio structure of NGC 6217 with e-MERLIN and the VLA
We present high-sensitivity 1.51 GHz e-MERLIN (e-Multi-Element Radio-Linked Interferometer Network) radio images of the nearby galaxy NGC 6217. We resolve the...
We report new Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 and NICMOS observations of the center of the nearest radio galaxy Centaurus A (NGC 5128) and discuss their...
Unveiling the bulge-disc structure, AGN feedback, and baryon landscape in a massive spiral galaxy with Mpc-scale radio jets
We study the bulge-disc components and stellar mass distribution in the fast-rotating, highly massive spiral galaxy 2MASX J23453268-0449256, which is...
Unveiling the Central Parsec Region of an Active Galactic Nucleus: The Circinus Nucleus in the Near-Infrared with the Very Large Telescope
VLT J- to M'-band adaptive optics observations of the Circinus galaxy on parsec scales resolve a central bright Ks-band source with a FWHM size of 1.9+/-0.6 pc...
Unveiling the chemical fingerprint of phosphorus-rich stars. I. In the infrared region of APOGEE-2
Context The origin of phosphorus, one of the essential elements for life on Earth, is currently unknown. Prevalent models of Galactic chemical evolution (GCE)...
Unveiling the chemical fingerprint of phosphorus-rich stars: II. Heavy-element abundances from UVES/VLT spectra
Context. The atmospheres of phosphorus-rich (P-rich) stars have been shown to contain between 10 and 100 times more P than our Sun. Given its crucial role as an...
Unveiling the environment and faint features of the isolated galaxy CIG 96 with deep optical and HI observations
Context. Asymmetries in atomic hydrogen (HI) in galaxies are often caused by the interaction with close companions, making isolated galaxies an ideal framework...
