  • The multiple dimensions of the Local Group: galactic evolution from structures, chemistry, dynamics and histories of star formation
    This project consists of investigating fundamental questions concerning the formation and evolution of galaxies from the smallest galactic scales to those of large spiral galaxies by adopting the approach of galactic archaeology. By determining the ages, metallicities and kinematics of individual stars, in particular low-mass, whose life-times are

  • Evolution of galaxies
    Galaxy evolution is one of the hot topics in Astrophysics that have shown tangible progress in the last years. This has been mostly due to advent of large telescopes, both ground based and in space, with state-of-the-art instruments, equipped with high sensitive detectors. They have made possible acquiring the deepest surveys in different
