PublicationTomography of the environment of the COSMOS/AzTEC-3 submillimeter galaxy at z ∼ 5.3 revealed by Lyα and MUSE observations
Context. Submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) have been proposed as the progenitors of massive ellipticals in the local Universe. Mapping the neutral gas distribution...

PublicationTop-heavy integrated galactic stellar initial mass functions in starbursts
Star formation rates (SFRs) larger than 1000 M&sun; yr-1 are observed in extreme starbursts. This leads to the formation of star clusters with masses >106 M&sun...

PublicationTorus and Active Galactic Nucleus Properties of Nearby Seyfert Galaxies: Results from Fitting Infrared Spectral Energy Distributions and Spectroscopy
We used the CLUMPY torus models and a Bayesian approach to fit the infrared spectral energy distributions and ground-based high angular resolution mid-infrared...

PublicationTorus and polar dust dependence on active galactic nucleus properties
We present a statistical analysis of the properties of the obscuring material around active galactic nuclei (AGN). This study represents the first of its kind...

PublicationTorus model properties of an ultra-hard X-ray selected sample of Seyfert galaxies
We characterize for the first time the torus properties of an ultra-hard X-ray (14-195 keV) volume-limited (DL < 40 Mpc) sample of 24 Seyfert (Sy) galaxies...

PublicationToward a clean sample of ultra-luminous X-ray sources
Context: .Observational follow-up programmes for the characterization of ultra-luminous X-ray sources (ULXs) require the construction of clean samples of such...

PublicationToward an Internally Consistent Astronomical Distance Scale
Accurate astronomical distance determination is crucial for all fields in astrophysics, from Galactic to cosmological scales. Despite, or perhaps because of...

PublicationToward an Understanding of the Seyfert Galaxy NGC 5252: A Spectroscopic Study
We present long-slit spectra of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 5252, covering the nucleus and part of the extranuclear emission-line region. All the regions sampled...
