Description
A sample of galaxies characterized by a low surface brightness disk has dynamically studied using, as tracer, the stellar component. The kinematical data, taken along the major and minor axis, extend well within the disk region. The stellar kinematics is more regular and symmetric than the ionized-gas kinematics. Moreover, when comparing the circular velocity derived by means of the dynamical mass model and the one measured from the ionized-gas we find that the later is characterized by a shallower velocity gradient in the central regions.

    ANDES, the high-resolution spectrograph for the ELT: design of the adaptive optics system
    ANDES,the high resolution spectrograph for the ELT, will work both in seeing limited mode and with Adaptive Optics (AO) correction. ANDES-SCAO is a single conjugated AO system working with natural guide stars, feeding the IFU coupled to the YJH spectrograph. The main science goal of the ANDES AO mode is the characterization of the exo-planet

    Contrast optimization in wide-field AO
    In Solar Adaptive Optics (AO), it is common to work with a wide Field of View (FoV), which necessitates special control techniques to enhance system performance. Ground-Layer Adaptive Optics (GLAO) configurations lack sufficient degrees of freedom to correct altitude layers individually, resulting in an averaged correction across the entire FoV. In
