Star clusters provide a unique and powerful probe useful for studying the star formation histories of galaxies. In particular, the ages, metallicities and...
Kinematic properties of superbubbles in the Antennae, M83 and Arp 270
Superbubbles and large scale expansion in galaxies are important indicators of activity in galaxies: they are formed in starbursts and around active nuclei...
Kinematic structure of the inner zones of disc galaxies
The kinematics of the inner zones of disc galaxies have recently been shown to be much more complicated than previously thou-ght. New instruments and more...
Bipolar planetary nebulae (BPNe) offer a unique opportunity to test models that aim to reproduce the PNe morphologies. In particular, kinematic studies of BPNe...
Kinematical analysis of the galactic planetary nebulae M1-32
It is found that the planetary nebula M1-32, which has a [WC4-5] core, shows a peculiar kinematics with bipolar outflows reaching ±200 km/s, while the main body...
Kinematical decomposition of stellar populations in disc galaxies
Understanding how different stellar populations evolve in different regions is a key to understand the evolution of galaxies. Traditionally the kinematics and...
Kinematical determination of the luminosity function in the solar neighborhood
The luminosity function is not only crucial to know the stellar density distribution in space, and thus to know the structure of the Galaxy; it also allows the...
Kinematical evidence for secular evolution in Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G) spirals
We present a study of the kinematics of a sample of isolated spiral galaxies in the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G). We use Hα Fabry-Perot...
