TalkGalaxies and quasars in the early Universe: recent results and future prospects from sub-millimeter observations
In recent years, major changes were done at the IRAM Plateau de Bure interferometer and 30-meter telescope, in particular in the areas of receivers and back...

TalkGalaxy ecology with SDSS
It has been thirty years since the seminal work of Alan Dressler on the density-morphology relation, which established environment as a driving mechanism for...

TalkGalaxy environments at low- and high-z & Constraining the dust content of tadpoles
One of the important questions in extragalactic astronomy concerns the debate between nature and nurture scenarios. Are the observed galaxy local properties the...

TalkGas and Star Formation in Nearby Galaxies
I will present results from the "Local Volume HI Survey'' (LVHIS), including a multi-wavelength atlas of 82 nearby galaxies. The LVHIS project targets all...

TalkGas, stars, and globular clusters in the local Universe as tracers of galaxy formation and evolution, and the nature of dark matter
In this talk I will discuss how the stellar, globular cluster (GC), and gas components of galaxies allow us to trace the assembly of galaxies and their dark...

TalkGenuine spectral energy distribution of active galactic nuclei
Spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of the central few tens of parsec region of some of the nearest active galactic nuclei (AGN) are presented. Peering into...

TalkGlobular cluster systems and the origin of early-type dwarfs in Virgo
Early-type dwarfs (dEs) are by far the most abundant galaxy population in nearby clusters. Whether these objects are primordial, or recent end-products of the...

TalkGlobular clusters as a dynamical probe of dark matter
Gravitational dynamical friction affecting the orbits of globular clusters (GCs) was studied extensively as a possible formation mechanism for nuclear star...
