We present a new pipeline designed for the robust inference of cosmological parameters using both second- and third-order shear statistics. We build a theoretical model for rapid evaluation of three-point correlations using our FASTNC code and integrate it into the CosmoSIS framework. We measure the two-point functions ξ ± and the full

It has been proposed that the stellar cores observed in ultra-faint dwarf (UFD) galaxies reflect underlying dark matter (DM) cores that cannot be formed by stellar feedback acting on collisionless cold dark matter (CDM) halos. Assuming this claim is correct, we investigate the constraints that arise if such cores are produced by self-interacting

We present the age determination of 13 globular clusters that are dynamically associated with the Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus (GSE) merger event, as part of the CARMA project's effort to trace the Milky Way assembly history. We used deep and homogeneous archival Hubble Space Telescope data, and applied isochrone fitting to derive homogeneous age

Context. Investigation of the formation, origin, and evolution of the dichotomy of the Milky Way's thin and thick disc components has been a focal point of research since it is key to understanding the formation of our Galaxy. One difficulty in this pursuit is that the populations defined based on their morphology or kinematics show a mix of

Context. Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus is considered the last major merger that contributed to the formation of the Milky Way. Its remnants dominate the nearby accreted stellar halo of the Milky Way. Aims. We aim to characterise the star formation history of Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus through the age and metallicity of its stellar populations. Methods. From

From a parent catalog of 561 changing-look active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs) identified by W.-J. Guo et al., we investigate the evolutionary sequence of broad emission lines using a redshift-selected subset (0.35 < z < 0.45) of 54 CL-AGNs whose Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) spectra simultaneously cover the Hα, Hβ, and Mg II emission
