Aims. We analyze the clustering of galaxy clusters in a large contiguous sample, the Constrain Dark Energy with X-ray (CODEX) sample. We construct a likelihood...
Powerful mechanical-driven outflows in the central parsecs of the low-luminosity active galactic nucleus ESO 428-G14
Low-luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei (LLAGNs) are characterized for low-radiative efficiency, much less than one percent of their Eddington limit. Nevertheless...
Powerful outflows in the central parsecs of the low-luminosity active galactic nucleus NGC 1386
Low-luminosity active galactic nuclei, i.e. L_{bol}/Ledd ∼ 10-6-10-3, constitute the bulk population of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Powerful jets, common in...
POX 4 and Tol 35: Two Peculiar Wolf-Rayet Dwarf Galaxies
We present results of narrowband (Hα and adjacent continuum) and broadband (U, B, and V) optical CCD imaging together with high-resolution Hα spectroscopy of...
Precision Determination of Corotation Radii in Galaxy Disks: Tremaine–Weinberg versus Font–Beckman for NGC 3433
Density waves in galaxy disks have been proposed over the years, in a variety of specific models, to explain spiral arm structure and its relation to the mass...
Preparing for low surface brightness science with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory: a comparison of observable and simulated intracluster light fractions
Intracluster light (ICL) provides an important record of the interactions galaxy clusters have undergone. However, we are limited in our understanding by our...
Preparing for low surface brightness science with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory: Characterization of tidal features from mock images
Tidal features in the outskirts of galaxies yield unique information about their past interactions and are a key prediction of the hierarchical structure...
Preparing for LSST data. Estimating the physical properties of z < 2.5 main-sequence galaxies
Aims: We study how the upcoming Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) data from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory can be employed to constrain the physical...
Based on the best observations of extragalactic H II regions of low metallicity available in the literature we redetermine the primordial helium abundance, Y[p]...
