    Photometric Signature of Ultraharmonic Resonances in Barred Galaxies
    Bars may induce morphological features, such as rings, through their resonances. Previous studies suggested that the presence of "dark gaps," or regions of a...

    Planning the WHT future: the WEAVE wide-field massive-multiplex spectrograph
    The vision for the use of the WHT in the coming decade is taking shape. A key element is the construction and deployment of WEAVE, a wide-field massive...

    Probing the early Universe with radio galaxies
    Luminous high-redshift radio galaxies (HzRGs) are associated with the most massive known galaxies in the early Universe. These galaxies have the properties...

    Properties of the dwarf galaxy population in galaxy clusters
    Dwarf galaxies, being the most numerous and fragile galaxy population, provide unique clues on both the formation of baryonic systems and the role played by the...

    Quasars: triggering and feedback
    There is increasing speculation that quasars are intimately linked to the evolution of their host galaxies. Not only are they triggered as galaxies build up...

    Reconstructing the formation
    One of the most widely researched topics in Extragalactic Astrophysics in the last decades is how early-type galaxies have formed their stars and assembled. In...

    Relationship between Hubble type and spectroscopic class in local galaxies
    We compare the Hubble type and the spectroscopic class of the galaxies with spectra in SDSS/DR7. As it is long known, elliptical galaxies tend to be red whereas...

    Rise of the Titans: Gas Excitation and Feedback in a Binary Hyperluminous Dusty Starburst Galaxy at z ∼ 6
    We report new observations toward the hyperluminous dusty starbursting major merger ADFS-27 (z = 5.655), using the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) and...
