We present positions and magnitudes of stars and star clusters in a 1° × 1° area centered on M33. The survey is based on deep archival ground-based images using the MegaPrime camera on the 3.6m Canada-France-Hawaii telescope. We provide u′, g′, r′, i′, z′ magnitudes by performing standard profile-fitting photometry of these images and apply image

Assuming the standard cosmological model to be correct, the average linear size of the galaxies with the same luminosity is six times smaller at z = 3.2 than at z = 0; and their average angular size for a given luminosity is approximately proportional to z-1. Neither the hypothesis that galaxies which formed earlier have much higher densities nor

Nuclear rings are in most cases thought to be by-products of gas shock-focusing at Inner Lindblad Resonances (ILRs). AINUR (Atlas of Images of NUclear Rings) is an Atlas which includes images and metric measurements of all 109 known nuclear rings. This Atlas has been produced by checking and processing Hubble Space Telescope archive data from a

We present high-resolution spectroscopic measurements of the abundances of the α element titanium (Ti) and s-process elements yttrium (Y) and lanthanum (La) for 59 candidate M giant members of the Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf spheroidal (dSph) + tidal tail system pre-selected on the basis of position and radial velocity (RV). As expected, the majority

Deriving the azimuthally averaged radial surface brightness profile of a galaxy is a schematic way of presenting the light and then the mass structure of disc galaxies. In this overview we will dwell on the outer discs, as it has become possible, with modern data to explore the light profile out to ever increasing galactocentric radii. We find that

We have investigated the physics of flares in M-dwarfs by means of optical/X-ray observations and modeling. The great efficiency of current optical spectrographs and detectors has allowed us to detect and analyze a great number of non white-light flares with intermediate spectral resolution and high temporal resolution. Although this kind of flares
