We report on the detection of a stellar halo around NGC 1560, a 109 M ⊙ spiral galaxy member of the Maffei group. We obtained deep images in the r- and i-bands...

Context: The structural properties of the low surface brightness stellar host in blue compact dwarf galaxies are often studied by fitting r1/n models to the...

Context. The morphological evolution of star-forming galaxies provides important clues to understand their physical properties, as well as the triggering and...

We explore the stellar initial mass function (IMF) of a sample of 49 massive quiescent galaxies (MQGs) at 0.9 z 1.5. We base our analysis on intermediate...

We present the first sub-arcsecond resolution two-dimensional stellar kinematics and X-ray observations of the prototypical starburst galaxy NGC 253 which...

On 2023 December 12, the star α Orionis will be occulted by asteroid (319) Leona. This represents an extraordinary and unique opportunity to analyse the...

Galaxy formation entails the hierarchical assembly of mass, along with the condensation of baryons and the ensuing, self-regulating star formation1,2. The stars...

We report here first results concerning stellar oxygen abundances in M33. Non-LTE model atmosphere and non-LTE line formation calculations were used to...

Context: We present the results of a near-infrared photometric and spectroscopic study of the star-forming region G61.48+0.09. Aims: The purpose of this study...
