    Intra-cluster light as a dynamical clock for galaxy clusters: Insights from the MAGNETICUM, IllustrisTNG, Hydrangea, and Horizon-AGN simulations
    Context. As the most massive nodes of the cosmic web, galaxy clusters represent the best probes of structure formation. Over time, they grow by accreting and...

    Intracluster Stellar Population Properties from N-Body Cosmological Simulations. I. Constraints at z = 0
    We use a high-resolution collisionless simulation of a Virgo-like cluster in a ΛCDM cosmology to determine the velocity and clustering properties of the diffuse...
  • Publication
    Intrinsic and observed dual AGN fractions from major mergers
    A suite of 432 collisionless simulations of bound pairs of spiral galaxies with mass ratios 1:1 and 3:1, and global properties consistent with the ΛCDM paradigm...
  • Publication
    Inversion of Stokes profiles with systematic effects
    Quantitative thermodynamical, dynamical and magnetic properties of the solar and stellar plasmas are obtained by interpreting their emergent non-polarized and...

    Inversions of synthetic umbral flashes: a selection of wavelength sampling
    Context. Imaging spectrographs are popular instruments used to obtain solar data. They record quasi-monochromatic images at selected wavelength positions. By...

    Inversions of synthetic umbral flashes: Effects of scanning time on the inferred atmospheres
    Context. The use of instruments that record narrowband images at selected wavelengths is a common approach in solar observations. They allow scanning of a...

    Irradiation origin and stability of CO on trans-Neptunian objects: Laboratory constraints and observational evidence from JWST/DiSCo-TNOs
    Context. The James Webb Space Telescope large program DiSCo-TNOs has recently shown that CO 2 ice is ubiquitous on 54 mediumsize trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs)...

    Is the activity level of HD 80606 influenced by its eccentric planet?
    Aims: Several studies suggest that the activity level of a planet-host star can be influenced by the presence of a close-by orbiting planet. Moreover, the...

    Is the orbit of the exoplanet WASP-43b really decaying? TESS and MuSCAT2 observations confirm no detection
    Up to now, WASP-12b is the only hot Jupiter confirmed to have a decaying orbit. The case of WASP-43b is still under debate. Recent studies preferred or ruled...
