The Pristine survey XI: the FORS2 sample
Extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars are old objects that mostly formed very early after the big bang. They are rare and, to select them, we have to rely on low...
The Pristine survey XIII: uncovering the very metal-poor tail of the thin disc
We evaluate the rotational velocity of stars observed by the Pristine survey towards the Galactic anticentre spanning a wide range of metallicities from the...
The properties and evolution of a K-band selected sample of massive galaxies at z ~ 0.4-2 in the Palomar/DEEP2 survey
We present the results of a study on the properties and evolution of massive (M* > 1011Msolar) galaxies at z ~ 0.4-2 utilizing Keck spectroscopy, near-infrared...
The properties of cataclysmic variables in photometric Hα surveys
We report on the properties of 71 known cataclysmic variables (CVs) in photometric Hα emission-line surveys. Our study is motivated by the fact that the Isaac...
We present a comparison of the properties of galaxies in the most underdense regions of the Universe, where the galaxy number density is less than 10 per cent...
The properties of the stellar populations in ULIRGs - I. Sample, data and spectral synthesis modelling
We present deep long-slit optical spectra for a sample of 36 ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs), taken with the William Herschel Telescope on La Palma...
The properties of the stellar populations in ULIRGs - II. Star formation histories and evolution
This is the second of two papers presenting a detailed long-slit spectroscopic study of the stellar populations in a sample of 36 ultraluminous infrared...
We present near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy, and warm-Spitzer IRAC photometry of the young very cool T dwarf Ross 458C, which we have typed as T8.5p...
The properties of the young stellar populations in powerful radio galaxies at low and intermediate redshifts
We present high-quality, wide spectral coverage long-slit optical spectra for 12 powerful radio sources at low and intermediate redshifts (z 0.7) that show...
