We present a spectral analysis of a sample of red-sequence galaxies identified by van Dokkum as dry merger remnants and ongoing dry mergers. Kinematics, stellar...

Galaxies undergo numerous transformative processes throughout their lifetimes that ultimately lead to the expulsion of gas and the cessation of star-forming...

Using the Illustris cosmological simulation, we investigate the origin of fossil groups in the {M}200={10}13{--}{10}13.5 {M}⊙ {h}-1 mass regime. We examine the...

We present the results of a comparison between the optical morphologies of a complete sample of 46 southern 2 Jy radio galaxies at intermediate redshifts (0.05...

Studying Broad Absorption Line Quasars (BAL QSOs) is interesting because they probe the physics of the AGN environment, and because AGN outflows are important...

In this poster we present the results of our analyses of three early massive stars in IC 1613, whose spectra have been observed with VIMOS and analyzed with...

Now almost 70 years since its introduction, the effective or half-light radius has become a very popular choice for characterising galaxy size. However, the...

Aims: The knowledge of physical conditions in young radio sources is important for defining the framework of models describing radio source evolution. We...

Spiral arms are the most singular features in disc galaxies. These structures can exhibit different patterns, namely grand design and flocculent arms, with...
