    Molecular gas in galaxies, and evolution with redshift
    I will review some recent results about the molecular content of galaxies and its dynamics, obtained from CO lines, dense tracers (HCN,HCO+), or the dust...

    Morphology rather than environment drives the SFR-mass relation in the local universe
    Exploiting a sample of 680 star-forming galaxies from the Padova Millennium Galaxy Group Catalog (PM2GC; Calvi, Poggianti & Vulcani 2011) in the range 0.038 ≤ z...

    Multi-Wavelength Characterization of the Outskirts of Spiral Galaxies
    We have explored late-type spiral galaxies with truncated radial surface brightness profiles. Based on the study of optical color profiles, [1] suggested that...

    Multiband analysis of the surface brightness distributions of SB and SC spirals from CCD images. II - Bulge-disc decomposition
    We analyze the structure of a small sample of galaxies, using a set of CCD images in standard photometric bands presented in a previous paper (Prieto et al...

    Multiple stellar populations in globular clusters: Properties, origin, unsolved questions
    Globular clusters (GCs) are fascinating objects nearly as old as the Universe that provide insight on a large variety of astrophysical and cosmological...

    Multiwavelength analysis of starburst galaxies
    A grid of evolutionary synthesis models for different scenarios (initial mass function slope, metallicity, age, etc.) and computing a set of observables in a...

    Multiwavelength Study of Star-Forming Galaxies in the Local Universe
    We have studied in detail the properties of local active star-forming galaxies from the UCM survey, and in particular their star-formation histories. We have...

    Near-infrared mapping of spiral galaxies. II - J, H, K profiles of M 31
    Four radial profiles of M 31 in the near infrared taken with the 1.5 m infrared telescope of the Observatorio del Teide, Tenerife are presented. Three of these...

    Neon and Chemical Fractionation Trends in Late-type Stellar Atmospheres
    A survey of Ne, O and Fe coronal abundances culled from the recent literature for about 60 late-type stars confirms that the Ne/O ratio of stellar outer...
