    The first year of SN 2004dj in NGC 2403
    New BV RI photometry and optical spectroscopy of the Type IIp supernova 2004dj in NGC 2403, obtained during the first year since discovery, are presented. The...

    The forbidden high-ionization-line region of the type 2 quasar SDSS J11311.05+162739.5: a clear view of the inner face of the torus?
    We present spectroscopic observations of the type 2 quasar SDSS J11311.05+162739.5 (z= 0.1732), which has the richest spectrum of forbidden high-ionization...

    The formation epoch of ellipticals and other red-sequence galaxies
    As part of the preparatory work for the upcoming GOYA Survey with GTC/EMIR, the GOYA team obtained deep galaxy number counts in the U, B and K bands, for the...

    The formation of galaxy discs in a hierarchical universe
    The formation of galactic discs and the efficiency of star formation within them are issues central to our understanding of galaxy formation. We have developed...

    The Formation of Shell Galaxies Similar to NGC 7600 in the Cold Dark Matter Cosmogony
    We present new deep observations of "shell" structures in the halo of the nearby elliptical galaxy NGC 7600, alongside a movie of galaxy formation in a cold...

    The formation of super-star clusters in disk and dwarf galaxies
    Super-star clusters are probably the largest star-forming entities in our local Universe, containing hundreds of thousands to millions of young stars usually...

    The Fornax 3D project: dust mix and gas properties in the centre of early-type galaxy FCC 167
    Galaxies continuously reprocess their interstellar material. We can therefore expect changing dust grain properties in galaxies that have followed different...

    The Fornax 3D project: Globular clusters tracing kinematics and metallicities
    Globular clusters (GCs) are found ubiquitously in massive galaxies and due to their old ages, they are regarded as fossil records of galaxy evolution...
