  • Exogenic basalt on asteroid (101955) Bennu
    When rubble-pile asteroid 2008 TC 3 impacted Earth on 7 October 2008, the recovered rock fragments indicated that such asteroids can contain exogenic material 1,2. However, spacecraft missions to date have only observed exogenous contamination on large, monolithic asteroids that are impervious to collisional disruption 3,4. Here, we report the

  • Elusive accretion discs in low luminosity AGN
    Low luminosity AGN represent the vast majority of the AGN population in the near universe, and still the least conforming class with the standard AGN scenario. Their low luminosity is at odds with their often very high black hole masses and powerful jets. I will review the challenges that parsec-scale observations across the electromagnetic

  • Dark matter content of ETGs and its relation to the local density of galaxies
    We study the behaviour of the dynamical and stellar mass inside the effective radius as function of local density for early-type galaxies (ETGs). We use several samples of ETGs - ranging from 19000 to 98000 objects - from the ninth data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We consider Newtonian dynamics, different light profiles and different

  • Collisional history of Ryugu's parent body from bright surface boulders
    The asteroid (162173) Ryugu and other rubble-pile asteroids are likely re-accumulated fragments of much larger parent bodies that were disrupted by impacts. However, the collisional and orbital pathways from the original parent bodies to subkilometre rubble-pile asteroids are not yet well understood 1-3. Here we use Hayabusa2 observations to show

  • Anisotropic satellite galaxy quenching modulated by black hole activity
    The evolution of satellite galaxies is shaped by their constant interaction with the circumgalactic medium surrounding central galaxies, which in turn may be affected by gas and energy ejected from the central supermassive black hole 1-6. The nature of such a coupling between black holes and galaxies is, however, much debated 7-9 and observational

  • A titanic interstellar medium ejection from a massive starburst galaxy at redshift 1.4
    Feedback-driven winds from star formation or active galactic nuclei might be a relevant channel for the abrupt quenching of star formation in massive galaxies. However, both observations and simulations support the idea that these processes are non-conflictingly co-evolving and self-regulating. Furthermore, evidence of disruptive events that are
