We present recent theoretical and empirical results concerning the accuracy of Cepheid distance estimates based on optical and near-infrared (NIR) Period...
COLDz: A High Space Density of Massive Dusty Starburst Galaxies ∼1 Billion Years after the Big Bang
We report the detection of CO(J = 2 → 1) emission from three massive dusty starburst galaxies at z > 5 through molecular line scans in the NSF's Karl G. Jansky...
Most massive galaxies have supermassive black holes at their centres, and the masses of the black holes correlate with properties of the host-galaxy bulge...
COSMOS-Web: Unraveling the Evolution of Galaxy Size and Related Properties at 2 < z < 10
We measure galaxy sizes from 2 < z < 10 using COSMOS-Web, the largest-area JWST imaging survey to date, covering ∼0.54 deg 2. We analyze the rest-frame optical...
From galaxy formation theory we expect galaxies to be embedded in massive dark matter haloes. For spiral and dwarf galaxies this has indeed been observationally...
The distribution of matter in galaxies of different luminosities and Hubble types, as inferred from observations, plays an important role in cosmology...
Descubierto el mecanismo que elimina la materia oscura de las galaxias
La escasez de materia oscura en la galaxia NGC1052-DF4 ha desconcertado durante varios años a la comunidad astronómica. Ahora, un equipo de investigadores del...
Descubren que las primeras galaxias tenían formas muy distintas a las actuales
Gracias a las imágenes obtenidas por el Telescopio James Webb (JWST), un equipo científico internacional en el que participa el Instituto de Astrofísica de...
DESI Observations of the Andromeda Galaxy: Revealing the Immigration History of Our Nearest Neighbor
We present Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) observations of the inner halo of M31, which reveal the kinematics of a recent merger-a galactic...
