Description
Nowadays it is well established that BCDs are mostly old systems, as the vast majority of them have an extended low-surface brightness (LSB) stellar host underlying their central starburst component. This host generally extends several kpc from the star-forming (SF) regions, shows regular elliptical isophotes, and displays red colors indicative of an evolved stellar population Papaderos96a,Cairos01a,Cairos01b,Cairos03.

    Massive characterisation of subgiants and red giants with TESS (Kepler and Gaia)
    TESS serves as a formidable tool for investigating stellar variability. Nonetheless, the adaptation of methodologies employed in other space missions, such as Kepler, to deduce long stellar rotation periods or solar-like stellar pulsations has been a challenge. The advent of multiple sectors of data for most stars every two years with the extended

    Using gas kinematics to measure resonant structures in disc galaxies: the interaction of M51 with NGC 5195
    Interstellar gas offers advantages when quantifying the structure of the resonances in disc galaxies. The gas is concentrated close to the disc mid-plane, making it easier to determine its in-plane velocity components, and it offers sharp emission lines for good velocity resolution. These properties are shared by atomic, molecular, and ionized gas

    Deriving Star Formation Histories of Galaxies from Spectra with Simulation-based Inference
    High-resolution galaxy spectra encode information about the stellar populations within galaxies. The properties of the stars, such as their ages, masses, and metallicities, provide insights into the underlying physical processes that drive the growth and transformation of galaxies over cosmic time. We explore an amortised implicit inference
