  • From gas to stars: MUSEings on the internal evolution of IC 1613
    Context. The kinematics and chemical composition of stellar populations of different ages provide crucial information on the evolution of the various components of a galaxy. Aim. Our aim is to determine the kinematics of individual stars as a function of age in IC 1613, a star-forming, gas-rich, and isolated dwarf galaxy of the Local Group (LG)

  • First Direct Evidence for Keplerian Rotation in Quasar Inner Broad-line Regions
    We introduce a novel method to derive rotation curves with light-day spatial resolution of the inner regions of lensed quasars. We aim to probe the kinematics of the inner part of the broad-line region by resolving the microlensing response—a proxy for the size of the emitting region—in the wings of the broad emission lines. Specifically, we assess

  • Exploring the nature of dark matter with the extreme galaxy AGC 114905
    AGC 114905 is a dwarf gas-rich ultra-diffuse galaxy seemingly in tension with the cold dark matter (CDM) model. Specifically, the galaxy appears to have an extremely low-density halo and a high baryon fraction, while CDM predicts dwarfs to have very dense and dominant dark haloes. The alleged tension relies on the galaxy's rotation curve

  • Exoplanet observations at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias IAC and its collaboration with the ExoClock project
    IntroductionA group of amateur astronomers from the Sabadell Astronomical Society is using small professional telescopes to obtain exoplanets transits photometry for the ExoClock project and ARIEL mission. Contact was taken in 2022 with MuSCAT2 team who uses the Carlos Sánchez Telescope, a telescope of 1.50 m diameter, almost fully dedicated to

  • Evidence for a Shallow Evolution in the Volume Densities of Massive Galaxies at z = 4–8 from CEERS
    We analyze the evolution of massive (log 10[M ⋆/M ⊙] > 10) galaxies at z ∼ 4–8 selected from JWST Cosmic Evolution Early Release Survey (CEERS). We infer the physical properties of all galaxies in the CEERS NIRCam imaging through spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting with dense basis to select a sample of high-redshift massive galaxies.

  • Euclid: Testing photometric selection of emission-line galaxy targets
    Multi-object spectroscopic galaxy surveys typically make use of photometric and colour criteria to select their targets. That is not the case of Euclid, which will use the NISP slitless spectrograph to record spectra for every source over its field of view. Slitless spectroscopy has the advantage of avoiding defining a priori a specific galaxy
