    The extended structure of the dwarf irregular galaxy Sagittarius
    We present a detailed study of the stellar and H i structure of the dwarf irregular galaxy Sagittarius. We use new deep and wide field photometry to trace the...

    The Extinction by Dust in the Outer Parts of Spiral Galaxies
    To investigate the distribution of dust in Sb and Sc galaxies we have analyzed near-infrared and optical surface photometry for an unbiased sample of 37...

    The extraordinarily bright optical afterglow of GRB 991208 and its host galaxy
    Broad-band optical observations of the extraordinarily bright optical afterglow of the intense gamma-ray burst GRB 991208 started ~2.1 days after the event and...

    The extremely low-metallicity tail of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy
    We present abundances for seven stars in the (extremely) low-metallicity tail of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy, from spectra taken with X-shooter on the...

    The Faber-Jackson relation for early-type galaxies: dependence on the magnitude range
    Aims: Previous studies have found that the coefficients and intrinsic dispersions of both the Kormendy relation and the Fundamental Plane depend on the...

    The far-infrared/radio correlation as probed by Herschel
    We set out to determine the ratio, qIR, of rest-frame 8-1000-μm flux, SIR, to monochromatic radio flux, S1.4 GHz, for galaxies selected at far-infrared (IR) and...

    The field surrounding NGC 7603: Cosmological or non-cosmological redshifts?
    We present new observations of the field surrounding the Seyfert galaxy NGC 7603, where four galaxies with different redshifts - NGC 7603 (z=0.029), NGC 7603B...

    The filament of ionized gas in the outskirt of M87
    We report on the filament of ionized gas found at the NE periphery of M87, the second brightest elliptical galaxy in the Virgo cluster. The object lies at 3.16...
