Description
We propose to carry out full-synthesis (12-h) HI ATCA observations of 8 bright Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxies (BCDGs), for which we have already got interesting results. Some are apparently isolated, others belong to galaxy groups. We want to estimate the distribution of the HI in each BCDG and its surrounding, looking for independent HI clouds or morphological features that reveal interaction processes. We will also analyze the kinematics of the neutral gas and, using 1.4 GHz radio continuum maps, derive an extinction-free star formation rate. We will combine the data with the results obtained using UV/optical/NIR images and spectroscopy. We remark that 4 of the galaxies have been observed at the 8.2m VLT and 5 will be observed at the 10.4m GTC and the Herschel observatory.

    Deep HST Imaging Favors the Bulgeless Edge-on Galaxy Explanation for the Hypothetical Stellar Wake Created by a Runaway Supermassive Black Hole
    A long linear structure recently discovered could be the stellar wake produced by the passage of a runaway supermassive black hole (SMBH) or, alternatively, a bulgeless edge-on galaxy. We report on new very deep Hubble Space Telescope imaging that seems to be in tension with the SMBH runaway scenario but is consistent with the bulgeless edge-on

    The molecular gas perspective on the growth and death of H emitters in the Spiderweb protocluster at Alpha z=2.16
    Galaxy clusters at low redshift are dominated by massive quiescent galaxies hosting stellar populations 10 Gyrs old, indicating that they were formed in the early universe when clusters were still in the process of being assembled (i.e., protoclusters). The rapid growth of galaxies within protoclusters is driven by the efficient transformation of

    Magnetohydrodynamic Processes in Solar Plasmas
    Magnetohydrodynamic Processes in Solar Plasmas provides a comprehensive theory and practice of basic plasma processes in the Sun and heliosphere. It deals with the basic dynamics of the Sun from its interior up to its outer atmosphere in the framework of Magnetohydrodynamics. Topics covered include essential phenomena in the solar interior such as
