Our understanding of the evolution of galaxies within their optical radius has made great advances in the last decades. These have been achieved by analysing in...
THREE-DIMENSIONAL RADIATIVE MHD SIMULATIONS OF NEAR-SURFACE CONVECTION IN MAIN SEQUENCE COOL STARS
This thesis focuses on the study of atmospheres of main sequence cool stars (spectral types G2V, K0V, and M2V, with solar metallicity) by means of three...
THREE-DIMENSIONAL SIMULATIONS OF THE GENERATION AND TRANSFER OF SPECTRAL LINE POLARIZATION IN THE SOLAR CHROMOSPHERE
El campo magnético es la causa principal de los espectaculares fenómenos que observamos en las capas externas de la atmósfera solar (la cromosfera, la región de...
TOWARDS THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE STELLAR POPULATIONS OF THE EARLY-TYPE GALAXIES
EL OBJETIVO DE ESTA TESIS ES EL ESTUDIO DE LOS DIFERENTES PARAMETROS QUE DEFINEN LAS POBLACIONES ESTELARES DE LAS GALAXIAS. PARA ELLO SE DESARROLLA UN INNOVADOR...
TRACING AND ISOLATING MAJOR MERGERS TRIGGERED IN GALAXY EVOLUTION: SPATIALLY RESOLVED PROPERTIES ALONG THE MERGER SEQUENCE.
Interactions and mergers have proved to be fundamental mechanisms for galaxy evolution. Galaxy-galaxy encounters could induce inflows of material as well as the...
TRACING THE EARLY CHEMICAL EVOLUTION OF LOCAL GROUP DWARF GALAXIES USING RR LYRAE STARS
La formación y evolución de las galaxias son cuestiones cruciales aún sin responder en la Astrofísica moderna. Las poblaciones estelares resueltas ofrecen la...
