The kinematic and thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ and tSZ) effects probe the abundance and thermodynamics of ionized gas in galaxies and clusters. We present a new hybrid estimator to measure the kSZ effect by combining cosmic microwave background temperature anisotropy maps with photometric and spectroscopic optical survey data. The method

Poster presented at the conference "Galactic bars: driving and decoding galaxy evolution", 3-7 july 2023 in Granada.

High-velocity stars in the Milky Way are related to extreme astrophysical phenomena. In this work, we characterize 28 stars with Galactocentric velocities higher than 400 $\mathrm{km\, s^{-1}}$ observed in the Javalambre Photometric Local Universe Survey Data Release 2 (J-PLUS DR2) survey. We combine J-PLUS photometry with astrometric data from the

Context. Given the widespread availability of grids of models for stellar atmospheres, it is necessary to recover intermediate atmospheric models by means of accurate techniques that go beyond simple linear interpolation and capture the intricacies of the data. Aims: Our goal is to establish a reliable, precise, lightweight, and fast method for

Invited talk about double-barred galaxies for the conference "Galactic bars: driving and decoding galaxy evolution" (Granada, 3-7 July, 2023).

Tidal streams of disrupted clusters are powerful probes of the gravitational potential of the Galaxy, and are routinely detected in the stellar halo of the Milky Way. Recently, it has been shown that tidal streams of open clusters can now also be detected within the Milky Way disc, such as the Hyades stream. During this talk, I will present the
