Description
Based on Mid and far-IR data of a complete set of Seyfert galaxies we analyse the Spectral Energy Distributions (SED) of these objects. These SEDs can be separated into three thermal emission components. This separation can be used to introduce some sort of spatial resolution in the inherently low resolution ISO data. It can also be applied as a method for detecting galactic disc components in high-z objects. The separation into emission components allows the study of these independently. In particular differences in the emission of the type 1 and 2 Seyferts can be seen in the warm emission component supposedly originated in dust heated by the nuclear source. The colder components tell us about the extended host galaxies.

    A Systematic Search for and Characterization of White Dwarf Binaries Across the H-R Diagram
    White dwarfs (WDs) are the endpoint of evolution for 97% of stars. Most of these stars are in multiple systems, and a significant fraction of those are compact enough to exchange mass, altering the structures and subsequent evolution of both stars. The physical mechanisms that facilitate these mass exchanges include common envelope evolution, Roche

    ROSALIA: ROman Sky Analyst for Low surface brightness Imaging & Astronomy
    Diffuse emission in the outskirts of galaxies, such as stellar tidal streams, galaxy stellar halos and intracluster light, provides important constraints on the structure and evolution of the Universe. However, such low surface brightness diffuse emission can be up to thousands of times dimmer (>29 AB mag/[square arcseconds]) than the sky

    Deep HST Imaging Favors the Bulgeless Edge-on Galaxy Explanation for the Hypothetical Stellar Wake Created by a Runaway Supermassive Black Hole
    A long linear structure recently discovered could be the stellar wake produced by the passage of a runaway supermassive black hole (SMBH) or, alternatively, a bulgeless edge-on galaxy. We report on new very deep Hubble Space Telescope imaging that seems to be in tension with the SMBH runaway scenario but is consistent with the bulgeless edge-on
