  • Gaia-DR2 extended kinematical maps. II. Dynamics in the Galactic disk explaining radial and vertical velocities
    Context. In our Paper I, by using statistical deconvolution methods, extended kinematics maps of Gaia-DR2 data have been produced in a range of heliocentric distances that are a factor of two to three larger than those analyzed previously by the Gaia Collaboration with the same data. It added the range of Galactocentric distances between 13 kpc and

  • Galaxy sizes and the galaxy-halo connection - I. The remarkable tightness of the size distributions
    The mass and structural assembly of galaxies is a matter of intense debate. Current theoretical models predict the existence of a linear relationship between galaxy size (R e) and the host dark matter halo virial radius (R h). By making use of semi-empirical models compared to the size distributions of central galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky

  • GJ 1252 b: A 1.2 R<SUB>⊕</SUB> Planet Transiting an M3 Dwarf at 20.4 pc
    We report the discovery of GJ 1252 b, a planet with a radius of 1.193 ± 0.074 ${R}_{\oplus }$ and an orbital period of 0.52 days around an M3-type star (0.381 ± 0.019 ${M}_{\odot }$ , 0.391 ± 0.020 ${R}_{\odot }$ ) located 20.385 ± 0.019 pc away. We use Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) data, ground-based photometry and spectroscopy

  • Homogeneous analysis of globular clusters from the APOGEE survey with the BACCHUS code - II. The Southern clusters and overview
    We investigate the Fe, C, N, O, Mg, Al, Si, K, Ca, Ce, and Nd abundances of 2283 red giant stars in 31 globular clusters from high-resolution spectra observed in both the northern and Southern hemisphere by the SDSS-IV APOGEE-2 survey. This unprecedented homogeneous data set, largest to date, allows us to discuss the intrinsic Fe spread, the shape

  • Ionization correction factors for sodium, potassium, and calcium in planetary nebulae
    We use a large grid of photoionization models that are representative of observed planetary nebulae (PNe) to derive ionization correction factors (ICFs) for sodium, potassium, and calcium. In addition to the analytical expressions of the ICFs, we provide the range of validity where the ICFs can be safely used and an estimate of the typical

  • Kinematic and metallicity properties of the Aquarius dwarf galaxy from FORS2 MXU spectroscopy⋆
    Context. Dwarf galaxies found in isolation in the Local Group (LG) are unlikely to have interacted with the large LG spirals, and therefore environmental effects such as tidal and ram-pressure stripping should not be the main drivers of their evolution. Aims: We provide insight into the internal mechanisms shaping LG dwarf galaxies by increasing
