  • The Baryonic Cycle and its Stellar populations

    B-CycleS is born as an ambitious long-term research program that aims to provide a comprehensive picture for the formation and evolution of galaxies by studying the interplay between their two basic constituents: baryons and dark matter. B-CycleS is rooted in the detailed analysis of the stellar population properties of galaxies and equipped with

  • Scientific exploitation of Euclid data: Unveiling the rise of complexity in the Universe

    Disentangling the properties of matter and dark energy is one of the key problems of current astrophysics. This is the main objective of theEuclid mission, considered the most ambitious challenge for European astrophysics in the coming years. Euclid will carry out bot photometric and spectroscopic surveys that will generate the largest and deepest

  • Formation and evolution of planets and brown dwarfs

    One of the main questions in Astrophysics is whether there are other Earths in the Galaxy. Our project is observational and technically prepared to address this question and lead to a significant progress on our understanding of the physical properties of planets, brown dwarfs, and stars, their formation mechanisms and evolution. We will conduct

  • Build-up of galaxy clusters in formation through dust obscured star formation

    The overall goal of the research project BURST is to understand 1) the built-up of galaxy clusters in the universe and 2) the importance of dust obscured star formation in such systems. To accomplish these goals, we have and will assemble a vast data set spanning a wide range of frequencies from the optical/near-infrared to the radio including

  • Tracking active galactic nuclei feedback from parsec to kiloparsec scales

    Active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback is the effect that nuclear activity produces in the interstellar and circumgalactic medium (ISM and CGM) of galaxies. Different modes of AGN feedback, which can be broadly divided into radiative/quasar and kinetic/radio, are now considered key processes in the evolution of massive galaxies by regulating black

  • Planetary nebulae as the key to understanding binary stellar

    Per the classical, textbook definition, planetary nebulae are the glowing shells of gas and dust expelled by single, Sun-like stars at the end of their lives as they evolve towards the white dwarf phase. However, there is growing evidence that a significant fraction, perhaps even a majority, of planetary nebulae are the result of binary
