PublicaciónChaotic scalar fields as models for dark energy
We consider stochastically quantized self-interacting scalar fields as suitable models to generate dark energy in the Universe. Second quantization effects lead...

PublicaciónCharacterising the intra-cluster light in The Three Hundred simulations
We characterise the intra-cluster light (ICL) in ensembles of full-physics cluster simulations from THE THREE HUNDRED project, a suite of 324 hydrodynamical...

PublicaciónChemical abundances in the young galaxy at Z = 2.309 towards PHL 957
We present high-resolution Utrecht Echelle Spectrograph spectra of the quasar PHL 957, obtained in order to study the foreground damped Ly-alpha (DLA) galaxy at...

PublicaciónChemical enrichment in cosmological, smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations
We present an implementation of stellar evolution and chemical feedback for smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations. We consider the timed release of...

PublicaciónCLASH-VLT: Substructure in the galaxy cluster MACS J1206.2-0847 from kinematics of galaxy populations
Aims: In the effort to understand the link between the structure of galaxy clusters and their galaxy populations, we focus on MACS J1206.2-0847 at z ~ 0.44 and...

PublicaciónClose Galaxy Counts as a Probe of Hierarchical Structure Formation
The standard ΛCDM model predicts that the major merger rate of galaxy-size dark matter halos rises rapidly with redshift. The average number of close companions...

PublicaciónCLUES about M33: the reversed radial stellar age gradient in the outskirts of Triangulum galaxy
HST/ACS observations along the major axis of M33 show that the mean age of its stars decreases with increasing distance from the galaxy centre. Such a behaviour...

PublicaciónClustering of intermediate redshift quasars using the final SDSS III-BOSS sample
We measure the two-point clustering of spectroscopically confirmed quasars from the final sample of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) on...
