Super star clusters (M ecl > 105 M sun) are the largest stellar nurseries in our local Universe, containing hundreds of thousands to millions of young stars...
Superdense Galaxies and the Mass-Size Relation at Low Redshift
We search for massive and compact galaxies (superdense galaxies, hereafter SDGs) at z = 0.03-0.11 in the Padova-Millennium Galaxy and Group Catalogue, a...
Superdense Massive Galaxies in the ESO Distant Cluster Survey (EDisCS)
We find a significant number of massive and compact galaxies in clusters from the ESO Distant Clusters Survey (EDisCS) at 0.4 z 1. They have similar stellar...
Superdense Massive Galaxies in the Nearby Universe
Superdense massive galaxies (re ~ 1 kpc; M ~ 1011 M sun) were common in the early universe (z gsim 1.5). Within some hierarchical merging scenarios, a non...
Superdense massive galaxies in the nearby universe
At high-z the most superdense massive galaxies are supposed to be the result of gas-rich mergers resulting in compact remnant (Khochfar & Silk (2006); Naab et...
Superdense Massive Galaxies in Wings Local Clusters
Massive quiescent galaxies at z > 1 have been found to have small physical sizes, and hence to be superdense. Several mechanisms, including minor mergers, have...
Supergalactic Winds Driven by Multiple Super-Star Clusters
Here we present two-dimensional hydrodynamic calculations of free expanding supergalactic winds, taking into consideration strong radiative cooling. Our main...
Superluminal non-ballistic jet swing in the quasar NRAO 150 revealed by mm-VLBI
Context: NRAO 150, a compact and bright radio to mm source showing core/jet structure, has been recently identified as a quasar at redshift z = 1.52 through a...
Supermassive black hole wake or bulgeless edge-on galaxy?
A recent paper reported the serendipitous discovery of a thin linear object interpreted as the trail of star-forming regions left behind by a runaway...
