Star cluster catalogues for the LEGUS dwarf galaxies
We present the star cluster catalogues for 17 dwarf and irregular galaxies in the HST Treasury Program `Legacy ExtraGalactic UV Survey' (LEGUS). Cluster...
Star formation and stellar populations across nuclear rings in galaxies
We present a study of the optical spectra of a sample of eight star-forming nuclear rings and the nuclei of their host galaxies. The spectra were obtained with...
We present the first results of a pilot study aimed at understanding the influence of bars on the evolution of galaxy discs through the study of their stellar...
Star formation history of KDG61 and KDG64 from spectroscopy and colour-magnitude diagrams
A study of two dE/dSph members of the nearby M81 group of galaxies, KDG61 and UGC5442 = KDG64, has been made. Direct Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Advanced...
Star formation in AGNs at the hundred parsec scale using MIR high-resolution images
It has been well established in the past decades that the central black hole masses of galaxies correlate with dynamical properties of their harbouring bulges...
Star formation in differentially rotating galactic disks: The physics of self-propagation.
Large-scale propagating star formation in galaxies is studied as a self-regulatin process. The model connects the energy injection by star formation with the...
Star formation in the XMMU J2235.3-2557 galaxy cluster at z= 1.39
We present the first results of a narrow-band photometric study of the massive galaxy cluster XMMU J2235.3-2557 at z= 1.39. We obtained deep H narrow-band...
Star formation rates in luminous quasars at 2 < z < 3
We investigate the relation between star formation rates (dot{{M}}_s) and AGN properties in optically selected type 1 quasars at 2 z 3 using data from...
Star formation trends in high-redshift galaxy surveys: the elephant or the tail?
Star formation rate and accumulated stellar mass are two fundamental physical quantities that describe the evolutionary state of a forming galaxy. Two recent...
