Un estudio, realizado por un equipo de investigación del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC), revela que una inusual y delgada estructura de estrellas...
Evidence for the Accretion of Gas in Star-forming Galaxies: High N/O Abundances in Regions of Anomalously Low Metallicity
While all models for the evolution of galaxies require the accretion of gas to sustain their growth via on-going star formation, it has proven difficult to...
New Clues on the Extended He II Ionization in IZw18 from GTC/MEGARA and JWST/MIRI
IZw18 is one of the lowest-metallicity star-forming galaxies known at z ∼ 0, considered a unique local analogue of the first galaxies. The origin of its hard...
Physically Motivated Fit to Mass Surface Density Profiles Observed in Galaxies
Polytropes have gained renewed interest because they account for several seemingly disconnected observational properties of galaxies. Here we study whether...
