Context. Integral field spectroscopy (IFS) offers a distinct advantage for studying extended sources by enabling spatially resolved emission maps for several emission lines without the need for specific filters. Aims. This study aims to conduct a detailed analysis of iron and nickel emission lines in 12 planetary nebulae (PNe) using integral field

We investigate the redshift evolution of disc- and bulge-dominated galaxies using a mass-complete sample of $\sim$14 000 galaxies from the CANDELS survey, selected with $H_{\rm mag} \le 24$, $M_{\rm stellar} \ge 10^9,{\rm M}_\odot$, and spanning $0.2 \le z \le 2.4$. Adopting an unbiased morphological classification, free from visual inspection or

Context. Due to their nearly constant absolute magnitudes and old ages, blue horizontal branch (BHB) stars are frequently used as standard candles to study the kinematics and structures of our galaxy. The number of identified BHB stars has significantly increased due to the advent of large scale surveys in the last two decades. Recently, Gaia DR3

We present the analysis of a microlensing event KMT-2022-BLG-0086 of which the overall light curve is not described by a binary-lens single-source (2L1S) model, which suggests the existence of an extra lens or an extra source. We found that the event is best explained by the binary-lens binary-source (2L2S) model, but the 2L2S model is only favored

Context. Halo bias links the statistical properties of the spatial distribution of dark matter (DM) halos to those of the underlying DM field, providing insights into clustering properties in both general relativity (GR) and modified-gravity such as f(R) models. While the primary halo mass-dependent bias has been studied in detailed, the secondary

Context. Ultra-hot Jupiters showcase one-of-a-kind extreme atmospheric conditions, including the dissociation of molecules into atomic species, ionisation, and significant day-to-night temperature contrasts. The proximity to their host stars exposes ultra-hot Jupiters to intense stellar irradiation, enabling high temperatures that drive noteworthy
