We map the extraplanar gas, with $\sim$50─200 pc resolution, in nine star-forming galaxies using Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) observations from the GECKOS VLT Large Programme targeting edge-on galaxies with similar stellar mass as the Milky Way. The narrow range in stellar mass ( $\pm 0.35$ dex) of the GECKOS sample makes it ideal for

We utilize James Webb Space Telescope/Mid Infrared Instrument (JWST/MIRI) Integral Field Unit observations from the Galaxy Activity, Torus and Outflow Survey to investigate the diverse range of ionized outflow rates of obscured active galactic nuclei (AGN) with similar bolometric luminosity and explore potential associations with AGN feedback. We

Stellar halos are the only major stellar component of disk galaxies that lack systematic observational characterization, yet they encode critical information about galaxy merger histories. We present the first systematic census of stellar halos in a large, flux-limited sample of 169 high-inclination central galaxies with stellar masses 7.3 ≤ log M

Stellar rotation is closely linked to both the age and the magnetic activity of stars. Through gyrochronology, studying stellar rotation provides a means to estimate stellar ages and trace the evolution of planetary systems, and it is also a crucial means to constrain and correct stellar activity effects for robust exoplanet detection and

Tracing the compositional link between terrestrial super-Earths and their host stars provides clues about their dominant formation pathway. By constraining the stellar abundances of refractory elements, we can predict the core mass fractions (CMFs) of their super-Earths. The level of agreement between this prediction and the planetary CMF derived

We present a far-ultraviolet (FUV) analysis of the star-forming complexes (SFCs) in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 2090 based on observations from the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope, and compare the FUV emission with that from the optical and infrared bands. NGC 2090 exhibits prominent star formation in its extended outer disk, with FUV emission
