The star formation rates of QSOs
We examine the far-infrared (FIR) properties of a sample of 5391 optically selected QSOs in the 0.5 < z < 2.65 redshift range down to log [νL ν, 2500(erg s -1)]...
The starburst model for active galactic nuclei-II. The nature of the lag
In the starburst model for active galactic nuclei (AGN), the observed broad emission lines and their variability are generated by compact, strongly radiative...
The starburst-active galactic nucleus connection in the merger galaxy Mrk 938: an infrared and X-ray view
Mrk 938 is a luminous infrared (IR) galaxy in the local Universe believed to be the remnant of a galaxy merger. It shows a Seyfert 2 nucleus and intense star...
The statistics of voids as a tool to constrain cosmological parameters: σ8 and Γ
We present a general analytical formalism to calculate accurately several statistics related to underdense regions in the Universe. The statistics are computed...
The stellar occultation by (319) Leona on 2023 September 13 in preparation for the occultation of Betelgeuse
On 2023 December 12, the star α Orionis will be occulted by asteroid (319) Leona. This represents an extraordinary and unique opportunity to analyse the...
The stellar populations of quiescent ultra-diffuse galaxies from optical to mid-infrared spectral energy distribution fitting
We use spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting to place constraints on the stellar population properties of 29 quiescent ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) across...
The stellar spectral features of nearby galaxies in the near infrared: tracers of thermally pulsing asymptotic giant branch stars?
We analyse the stellar absorption features in high signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) near-infrared (NIR) spectra of the nuclear region of 12 nearby galaxies, mostly...
The structural properties of classical bulges and discs from z ̃ 2
We study the rest-frame optical mass-size relation of bulges and discs from z ̃ 2 to z ̃ 0 for a complete sample of massive galaxies in the CANDELS fields using...
The structure of Abell 1351: a bimodal galaxy cluster with peculiar diffuse radio emission
We aim to review the internal structure and dynamics of the Abell 1351 cluster, shown to host a radio halo with a quite irregular shape. Our analysis is based...
